liftback weight distribution

[Vanderkitten]

I don't think 50/50 would provide much benefit to this car, and here's why I say this:

The car turns in well and in sweepers I find it has just the right amount of tail rotation. Left foot trail-braking also helps bring the back around a little, which is key to counter-act understeer.

There is a problem with traction when pushing these cars out of corners in quasi stock form. The inside wheel lifts and spins. I have the MR coil-overs and 205/50/15 Avon Tech R's, and it still happens. A LSD would help this out alot.

Numbers are cool to talk about, but learning how to drive (uh oh, here I go again!) your car to the limit is the best investment you can ever make... so, I say spend your next $250 on upgrading the driver, and worry about the weight distribution when you are closer to your peak potential and it warrants improving your set-up.

03Z33, I'd love to come down your way for a track day! We'd tear it up! Let me know when you're heading out again.
