what do you guys run for front and rear dampening(sp?) I have JIC-Magic FLT-A2s and for daily driving i run 5 all the way around.

For having fun, what does everyone feel the best setup on their car is? I have an S14...so apparently i have a little less understeer than the S13s....or so says the drift king.

it's adjustable.. .just trial and error.

I run about 2 settings higher in the rear with slightly more tire pressure in the rear and I have no problems with understeer, and I do 3rd gear transition drifts with that setup.

Just turn your dampening up slightly in the rear and figure out what works for you. If you're pushing, turn it up, if it's REAL spin happy, turn it down, then just adjust between there. Set the fronts for the turn in you like. I like a soft turn in, so my fronts are pretty soft.

I run 9/7 springs.
