The lsd i'm running is very tight. 1.5 way TRD job. On gravel its actually very nice. But perhaps its abit too tight for wet roads (if there is any logic to this).

Today i cut away about 1.5 inches of bump stop and firmed up the rear (winding in more dampening) and i also lowered the front in hopes of getting rid of some more understeer.

It wasnt raining in perth today but in the dry - the lowered front of the car did feel more direct. - i dropped the spring collars 10mm. which (in hindsight) is abit too much and the car now sits with the front noticably closer to the road. Also wound too much dampening in to the rear as well. The rear feels overdamped. * a tomorrow job *

Going to raise the front abit and soften the rear.
I seem to be a sucker for punishment when it comes to car setup.

And wait for some more rain.
