Rep Power: 0 Setup for a slalom event.....
Well there's gonna be an auto-x/slalom event in my town and iwant to get prepped for it, so here's the deal, the only suspension stuff i got are some 16' rotas with azenis, and KYB AGX shocks, what could i do to bring the best out of this setup
1)What setting fot the shock (Front/Rear Stiffnes, KYB's got 4)
2)Tire Pressure for front and rear
3)I got a Tanabe Underbrace and a Megan Rear tie sitting in the room, would it realy make a difference if in just intall that...
4)Keep in mind that the track is kinda small, and is mostly tight turns...
Thanks for those who can help

Rep Power: 357 SHocks. Your going to have to test a few settings, But soft front Stiff rear, will help the car rotate better. I run my Konis full soft on the nose and about 1/2-1/4 down from full hard on the back and then adjust as the track needs.
Tire pressure... How much negitive camber are you running? and once again you'll have to test a few things. Right now for autocross I run about 37 on the front and 33 on the back, before I added in more negitive camber I ran 45 or so front.
the extra bracing isnt going to do a hell of a lot.

Rep Power: 357 0 Camber or 0 Toe? If its 0 Camber... Pick up a camber kit for the front end and bottom the thing out... You want as much negitive camber on the nose as you can get.
