[QUOTE="twistedneck, post: 13222931, member: 130159"] did you go to the Vorshlag web site yet? they have done exactly what you are looking for.. and the key is of course as you already know grip and braking w/o fade. body roll is fine with lowered springs and stock roll bars, you can opt for the 26mm rear laguna bar or the 25mm boss bar - to change your roll couple. i.e. balance in the corner. the clutch is super heavy on stock boss swap it for something really light weight and get a light weight drive shaft it will help you to be quicker on the gas and brake and actually burn the tires less, downshift easier, etc.. get a wide gas pedal to make heel toe way easier. bleed the brakes with a vacuum pump for sure that's the best way hand held manual pump is fine... vorshlag uses very wide square tire setup all around - forget the stagger. you will go through wheel bearings once you get that wide street slick on there but that's fine. NTO1's are cheap too. 100 treadwear is just fine. try removing the strut brace for more turn in, the car does not need it anyway - we need torsional stiffness not lateral strut tower stiffness - its got enough of that. 10,000 N-m/deg is pretty stiff for a factory car. (I know, the aston one 77 is 30,000 N-m/deg but that's a carbon tub. heavily damped shocks are a must - and coil overs would let you tune ride height and reduce steering stiction. get a light weight litium ion battery, that saves over 20lbs. you need mechanical grip bad - that will improve with weight reduction, balance, low roll center, and sticky tires. interesting thread, keep the updates coming.
