My Car

Not every ones cup of tea but I like to be different

 

[Siluro]

I normally would not like that for a road car but the orange i like. It is not to in your face. What lap time round the ring?

[Impreza abuser]

Still learning the track. I know the first quarter and last quarter but the middle section is just guess work. 9 Mins 29 seconds so far

[Siluro]

Guessing is no good

[Impreza abuser]

Have you been round it Siluro?

[Siluro]

No. I have virtually many times in Sims. In a sim I know the track like the back of my hand. I could not finish the post as the page crashed. I was going say cool and not a bad time.  Is the time gantry to gantry or the full course?

It is on my bucket list. Never had a car worthy until now.

Bridge to Gantry

I can do a 7 min lap on the boys X box but that doesn't give feedback on grip and undulations lol

great photos - I see you are one of those wallflower, shrinking violet types that likes to cruise around unnoticed 😄😄

[Impreza abuser]

I can do 6:05 in Ferrari Evo XXXX thingy on Assetto Corsa with wheel and pedals lol. It is capable of sub 5.40 i think. Bridge to Gantry. When i do it for real I guess I will be Shxting bricks and just pxussy it. Bet real life is nothing like the sim unfortunately.

Nice shiny new bits i likey

Jez cannot say the P word that is a bit much I might be talking about my cat.

+1. Are they any good for a daily driver on UK roads? I am old and like a bit of comfort.

While I am at it anyone got/used Pedders stuff, are they any good?

[Impreza abuser]

I looked at Pedders but didn't come with the rear adjustable pillow ball mounts, just fixed.

Advantages over standard shocks are

1. You can alter the ride height of the car

2. You can adjust the rebound (the rate the shock absorber returns to its extended length.

3. You can make the suspension stiffer or more comfortable by compresing the spring with the adjustable spring platforms.

 

So yes depending on how you set them up and with the weight of spring yu use you can get them more comfortable than OE shocks and have the adjustment to stiffen them up for fast road/track use where as the standard Scooby suspension unit is fixed. Fixed spring rate, fixed rebound and fixed ride height.

Hope that helps

[ROSSCOSM]

Yeah i understand most of that bit i meant are your new ones gonna give you better adjustment options in comparison to the ones you just took off?

[Impreza abuser]

Oh yes. Te new ones have 24 clicks of adjustment as opposed to 14

And the spring rate is harder so I don't need to beef the antiroll bars up
