Hey guys gonna give a bit of context first. Earlier today I had a friend who works at a local Ford install for me the Ford Performance Track Handling Pack, excluding the sway bars. I bought them used off another friend who tracks his 2015 GT, but has since upgraded to coil overs. I have a 2019...
What’s up guys! Looking at beginning modifying the suspension. I recently bought Ford Performance shocks/struts with the track lowering springs and camber plates from a buddy of mine. Looking at finding sway bars to buy while the car is on the lift to do it all in 1 shot. My friends swears by...
Alright peeps, you know who it is. Cobalt Filly, back at it again with questions.Currently sitting on Steeda Non-Adj Shocks/Struts, Sport Progressive Lowering Springs, Camber Plates, sway bars...and a ton of other suspension items, but lets just get to the point.Stepping from 19x11s to...
I've skimmed the forums and found myself on a few dead threads that didn't quite provide all the answers/understanding I'm hoping for...I'm trying to figure out what specs to hand the alignment shop... so far I've learned "As much Camber and Castor as the car can manage". I've read some...
I am 18 and getting my car prepped to go to some autocross races this summer. I found a good deal of some MCS 2-Way remote reservoir suspension with camber/caster plates and was wonder how I should go about the install. I do all of the work on the car myself and can’t seem to find any...
Like the title states I need help. I grew up drag racing but up here in the north east it's dying. I grew up 15 min away from raceway park and had a semi built fox with a vortech. Long story short fell in love with the s197 and bought me a 2014 gt with the track pack. Etown closed 2 years later...
Came across this series and found it interesting.
This is not an endorsement on my part of any particular strategy as we all know, "Your mileage may vary" but I love reading about this stuff and I bet some of you do too.
So to that end...here it is...
Would anyone happen to have a point cloud of the S197 suspension points? I would like to model the S197 in susprog or lotus shark to get some data to play with but I haven't been able to find anyone who's measured out the car. I currently don't have the time nor the space to do it to mine.
Hey guys,I took a brief hiatus from car stuff while I pursued some other hobbies, and finally said "screw it" and got pretty much a whole suspension overhaul, minus sway bars, and took to installing it today. My brother and I, both definitely amateur mechanics, spent about 8 hours today...
Hi all my 2012 GT is coming up on 150k and I have decided to park it to tackle much needed preventive maintence and do some upgrades.So far here is my shopping list, mind you suspension is currently full stock and I do street the car a lot as it is my part time daily.Out front:
Prothane...
Hey, all! Hope everyone is well, and hope your lap times are faster! Got a little preoccupied with work and school, so I haven't been as active on here as I would have liked to have been, but I'm ready to start spending some money on car stuff again.Just FYI, this will be a little long winded...
Hi. I am new to the site and new to road course driving.
I've done an HPDI at NCM in KY and & 1 track night.
I could really use some advice on how to CORRECTLY build this car for 75% track use.
What does the S550 need to be competitive and safe. Are heat issues a serious problem?
Here is the...
Hello everyone!
I have been on this site about a million times trying to learn the ins and outs of suspension and the parts that make mustangs handle really well, and then I decided to finally make an account and ask some questions for myself. For some context, I am a college student that has...
End of the year is coming up, and I have decided that I want to start tracking my car. Are there any important suspension upgrades that I should consider doing sooner rather than later? or anything I can do now to help the suspension?

Wondering what suspension mods you guys are running. I have a bias to run as close to stock as possible. Will be installing camber plates to run FP alignment specs.I usually run intermediate/advance HPDE.Thanks in advance.
