Commencing new (slow) build of my hatchback...

If the GABs are really rated 5k front and 2.5k on the back, I would be interested to know how the 5k front feels. BCR has 4k front, took some getting used to, but now feeling like it can take stiffer. On the other hand, I'm also worried if the chassis can take it.

I'm doing 8k/6k with revalving on TEIN Basis. So yeah, it can take it. I wish I went 10k/8k though.

Are you running UR braces? STB?

Just rear sway bar and GAB front strut bar. Even to that, that chassis isn't as flimsy as you think.

Thx! good to now.

Hey if you're building it for track use, how about doing a Hayabusa swap? This car is bagging for it

6K on the rear!? Wow! My rear feels like flying with 2.4K empty car across bump. Does your rear squeak? Mine does when it's empty. It's getting my nerve every now and then...

I think his one is track only (or track mostly).

Is damping/rebound adjustable separately on your GAB? if it is you might wanna decrease damping and increase rebound

I'm on BCR. Pretty sure mine is the cheapest of the range, so I think I get only damping adjustment, whichever is the more common ones on low end aftermarket suspension.. hahaha..

Auto-x. Time attack or wheel-to-wheel after more power. Nothing wrong with the stock mill. It just needs more power. Plus, a bike motor is more trouble to get to work than it's worth.

I am thinking doing it in a couple years when used Mirage < $4K. 170-200HP and 11,000 redline.. but not much below 3,000.

More feasible in the future for sure.
