Mainly because keeping the rear tight in a fwd car allows for MASSIVE rotation. A big RSB is one of main "big" changes you can make in handling in this platform. Its pretty impressive. Even in auto-x or just canyon running its can really help the cars performance in carrying speed.
Yep same. The rear is one loose goose! makes for a great DD car but for those that want to go faster you notice how much the rear of the car keeps you from pushing pretty quickly
Can vouch for that.
Leave the front the fak alone.
Control arms like super pro and links yes but other than that leave the fsb.
I tried it just to see why for my own tastes but yea stiff fsb kills the cars responsiveness in a track situation.
To be honest no car thats fast "drives on rails" thats the opposite of what you truly want. You need it to be loose enought so slide it into corners and power TF out.
hahahahahhaha
sometimes im expensive, but I really like trying to pass on any savings I can to the group like with USP/Mele/Accelera etc
But yea, if you don't like having a high smile per dollar ratio, its a bad idea to hang out with me for a weekend
This is true. I have the factory lsd. I think its dope, but if you have a non LSD Golf its just not the same. The amount of speed you can carry with an LSD (Pelo, wave, OEM) is just incredible compared to the base versions.
Thanks everyone for your responses! I certainly have somethings to look into.
How would you all calculate rates knowing aero is now a factor? In some cases I will be able to generate upwards of 200lbs front/rear at speeds. I know thats gotta throw some readings off
