Hi All
Just got a 944 s2 race car. Still road legal so has lights etc but is fully stripped out interior with cage etc and fiberglass bonnet.
It currently has:
Leda 24 way adjustable suspension. Ride height is very low with spherical bushings in the appropriate places.
The rear shocks do not have spring perches on them yet - I am thinking of doing this to use helper springs (but not get rid of the torsion bars).
Front springs: 350 in/lb
Front sway: I was told it was a 968 bar but only measures 27mm so it does not appear to be the 30mm 968 M030 bar.
Rear torsion bar: 26mm
Rear sway: 19.3mm 968 M030 bar with 3-way adjustment.
Car seems reasonably adjustable but does seem quite soft in corners.
Q's:
1) I have been advised 450 in'lb springs and 28mm torsion.
2) I think I need to find a 30mm M030 front sway?
3) do I bother with leaving the 26mm torsion in and doing the helper spring thing? If so what size spring? Or just go to 28mm (or other) rear torsion.
I am currently getting some parts from leda in the UK so now is the time to modify my rear struts to take helper springs if I go that way. Currently the struts have no perches.
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
