Re: AE86 Street/Track Suspension..	Thu, 03 June 2004 05:10

here is what i have found out, as i am going down exactly the same path as you... well, here are other people's setups, have a gander, (these have been reproduced from performanceforums, if anyone wants their fully sikc setup removed, let me know - especially you bill, or just update yours ) bill sherwood: For fast road/light track- Front suspension : Poly bushes all round. Lower front 50mm Fit 50mm thick roll centre adjusters 220 lb/in springs (editors note, this is 3.928753 kg/mm) Bilstein/DeCarbon/Koni dampers Stock anti-roll bar 1° negative camber, 2.5° - 3.5° castor Strut brace, preferably from strut-to-firewall-to-strut Rear suspension : Poly bushes all round, except for the upper-left hand trailing arm which has the stock rubber bushes left in but drilled full of holes (Called a three & a hald link rear end, to improve traction in roll) Lower 50mm 100 lb/in springs (this is 1.785797 kg/mm) Bilstein/DeCarbon/Koni dampers Stock anti-roll bar Wheels & tyres : 15x7 preferably, but anything from 14x6 up is okay Tyres no more than 205mm wide, no narrower than 165mm, directional tread Actually, i might just put that one uo there, as a lot of the info is repeated, here is what i am considering, tokico HTS 102 shrt stroke all round http://www.greenline.jp/catalogue/bcpartlist.php?m ake=Toyota&carcode=AE86&intake=NA (search for "tokico" on this page) front coil over conversion, strut top camber adjusters if i need to run them, front strut brace, 50mm roll centre adjusters, eventlally longer lower control arms, cant be bothered with powersteering arms... spring rates: 6kg/mm front, 4 kg/mm rear and for the rest of the rear end, NO coil overs, NO rear "strut brace" as there are no struts to brace, but i will make a body brace that bolts between the seat latch mounts want to conver tthe rear end to watts link, but that is waaay down the track. havent decided wether i want poly or new rubber bushes, some claim poly is too harsh... hope that helps a bit, here are soem links to read RCAs, and other bits can be found here http://www.technotoytuning.com/t3_site_pages/produ cts/index.html info on bushes http://www.club4ag.com/faq%20and%20tech_pages/Susp ension%20BUSHINGS.html etc, etc. trust me, i am in the same boat as you, while the odd bit of dorifto isnt out of the question, i by no means want to turn my car into a dedicated drifter.
