LSx foxbody coupe, s475 turbo, 28x10.5 et drags, wofle ARB, UPR adjustable upper and lower arms, stock v8 springs in the back, strange singles in the back. front is coil over, 12" 200lb springs, strange single adj struts. shocks in these videos are set at 6 in the rear, 3 in the front. car is 60' in the low to mid 1.30's but if you notice the car comes up fast then noses over a little, not sure if it's the tires fault or a suspension setting (tried tightening the fronts with little to no difference).
Slow down the rise of the front shocks a bit add a half a turn of preload to the right side anti sway bar and tighten the rear shock compression a bit.
Get some stiff sidewall tires and put tubes in them.. or get a 275
Raise the rear ride height till the lower control arm is level or slightly uphill.. The control arm is pointing downhill toward body now.. making the car squat, unload, ect ect..
It goes sideways when you leave.. Make sure the control arms are neutral with no preload atall in them.. Use ARB link to steer the car left/right.. From the looks of your 3rd video.. its got a little too much weight on the passenger rear.. add (extend) a flat or 1/4 turn on the ARB link on the driver side.. OR shorten the passenger side same amount already mentioned.
Put travel limiters on it so youre not wasting movement..
Start saving for some double adjustable rear shocks and some rear coilovers..
If you want to keep it at the same ride height.. get some brackets for being able to adjust your LCA angle.. something like these..
I have heard guys use strange 10 ways set at 0-3 with a slick. We put doubles on it before we could try going that loose. I would be interested to see how it does that loose if you get to the track this weekend.
