1M Time Attack Car

[ed_z]

KW Clubsport 1M kit with Top Mounts fitted. Alot of guys said it would be to aggressive on the road but brilliant on the track but the 1M is as brutal as before anyways with hard suspension setup only now with un-even surfaced roads where there are a couple of bumps the car feels a little bit harder and more rigid than before but normal driving is not affected at all.

very nice... are you not going to fit sway bars?

are the stiffer springs enough to make up for the soft sway bars?

 

[ed_z]

Sway bars came with my Clubsport kit but not with variant 3.

i dont see any mention of sways with the Clubsport kit only the option of 2 way or 3 way adjustment?

 

[ed_z]

Yeah not in the OEM kit we ordered it from a tuner in the States as a suspension mod kit.

 

[moranor@axis]

i see... well its a very nice kit :rollsmile:

 

[ed_z]

Yeah fits well and no knocks or touching and also very drivable but aggressive. Im eager to test at Kyalami the 23rd June with all the upgrades. The car can do well under 2min but lets see the clock never lies.

 

[moranor@axis]

im sure you will set a good time you got a good car with good parts

 

[ed_z]

Yeah thats the problem cos now i must pull finger. But i had no HP upgrades and brakes for only a couple of Hot laps and stock suspension with RE55's. There in that list is about 3-5 seconds in the car and i am sure i can contribute 3 so lets see.

 

[moranor@axis]

well good luck i will be waiting for the times

[moranor@axis]

[moranor@axis]

nice what to the OEM wheels weigh?

 

[ed_z]

nice what to the OEM wheels weigh?

Stock rims Total=48Kg's
Unsprung mass difference=18Kg's less
Rotational mass=181.82KG'S less on total body weight. Not bad as a start of the weight reduction plan i have for my wagon and how the hell else are you going to depart with almost 200kg's!:=):

 

[moranor@axis]

huge saving there, but i dont want to know the cost :fencelook:

 

[ed_z]

R30K new i got them half that price almost brand new from a buddy that needs the money instead of ultra light race rims.:=):

 

[moranor@axis]

i actually thought they would be more like 50k... used rim FTW :rollsmile:
