Just yesterday we had our first big drift event here in the dominican republic, and ive been hearing that my car while it was drifting, the front right wheel (the one that was taking all the weight in the big sweeper) was shaking a LOT.
Heres my setup:
KA24e-TFront end stock arms, just some HKS Hipermax (32 point damping, rotating bottle.) just a Front strut bar. Rear end stock arms, Cusco struts (no damping or bottle rotation, just spring adjusment) no bars.Stock old bushings. and i noticed one of the brackets (the things that people replace with the nismo power brace, holds the tension rod and the radiator support) had crack in one side. Front Right side.
around 80 kms/h in straight road i can feel the vibration, and while drifting its feeling pretty difficult to control the front end.
had the chance to see Calvin Wan`s old RX7 and Casper Canul S14 and the level was totally different.
So here i am, lets see what kind of changes, checks would you recommend for me, i want to stiffen the car up, gain control on the front end. stop the shaking etc...
im amazed to see my car still transfering so much weight to one side.... even with the HKS Hipers stiff as hell, all the way to the 32 point set
Here are some pics of the transfers etc, hopefully to get some feedback and tips. Some pics show the car in perfect balance, but i wont post those, im posting the ones that i think can show the defects.
