Suspension Beginner Suspension Tweaking - What to do first?
Listen to those telling you to have some care with putting too stiff a rear bar on . . . I dialed my 19mm Hsport up to full stiff, and when I went through one of my favorite fwy ramps at speed, it definitely felt like the rear end wanted to come around. That said, I like my 19mm rear bar on medium settting, very light (10.6lb) 15s, KoniFSDs with JCW springs (yes I know Koni recommends no lowering - it's 1/2 inch, if that). I'm intrigued by the Ireland front camber plates, and if I had it to do over again, I might have gone with that first.
After reading NAM threads I did the following -
The first thing I did was a 19mm rear sway bar and the car became more neutral in the corners.
The second thing I did was swap out the run flats - big difference for me when pitching it into a corners as well as dealing with road transitions.
The Third thing was swapping out the stock shocks for a set of Bilstiens. The ride is about the same but produce less lean when tossing the car round.
These mods have raised my confidence and make for a nice daily driver.
