I posted the VOLKs for sale here

 

So finally here are some pics of my car with the Ohlins anf the Enkei's.

18x10+22 all corners with 5mm spacers in the rear (the front will get 5mm spacers once I get my cusco uppr arms installed) 265/35 and 275/35 TOYO R888

I also recently installed Project U HC+ pads, so far so good, They will get some track abuse at Miller Sports Park on June 13th.

cheers,

 

finally.... ok, I'm sold to those wheels...
did you put toyo R888 or yoko A048? 245/40R18 and 275/35R18 I guess.. shoulder looks same height front and rear...

 

I edited last post with specs

 

Damn, the viper is hot

 

holy crap... 18*10 front....
btw.. I had ferodo ds2500 for the track and they work just fine with street tire... ready with the 3000 for R comp rubbers.
upgrade the lines and the fluid if you didn't... with the stock and that tires could be dangerous.

I need only that and a reflash and I'm all set for the track... (so far only 2K miles on the track... )

 

11 out of 10

 

Quick review:

The Ohlins (PCV) are quite mild, only having a 10k/7k spring rate setup allows the car to feel like it almost doesnt have coilovers with the dampening set about half way front and rear. I will run the dampening as stiff as I can for the track, but I am also considering bumping up the spring rate to something like 11k/9k. The PMU HC+ pads feel really good on the street, a bit noisy, and I am worried about how they will perform on the track...

 

hi cuda510,

did you roll the fenders? does the wheels rub the fender walls

thanks

 

Once the suspension settled a bit in the rear(about a day of driving) It started to rub ever so slightly on the rear fender lip, so yes, i did roll the rear, just a tiny bit.

now I am running the stock wheels with a 10mm spacer, and there still not even close to rubbing.

 

car at th track over the weekend (Miller Sports Park) track was fun, car was amazing, need better brakes though.

 

congratulations man! loving it!

 

better then the stock brembos!?

 

very nice! haha hoping to pick one up myself soon

 

maybe, I was running project U HC+ pads and about half way through the 20min session I almost had no brakes left. given it was a 3+ mile long track (outer course) and on the straight-a-way I was hitting speeds over 130mph. my first step will be going to a full race pad, then possibly going to an f50 caliper up front with a 355mm 2 piece rotor.

 

I would get STOPTECH AeroRotor Direct Replacement Kit first with SS lines and Motul RBF600 Racing Brake Fluid first before you change out your whole brake setup.


Also Pads I would go with NISMO R-Tune Brake Pads they can take heat up to over 700F.

 

motul or ate fluid... (second cheaper and as good)... ferodo DS2500 are performing fine for me at the track, ss lines and you're set. :-)

I agree on aerorotors as first upgrade... I wouldn't unbalance the brake bias putting huge calipers in front.
