the subtle track car project.

the PIC coilovers were very comfy on the street and ok on track with the spring rates I had. The Koni and gc combo is harsh on the street with 500+lb spring rates lol but amazing on track. The new rear trailing arm bushings are also helping with the rear end rotating better. The form and functions dont compare at all to the pic or koni gc.

They no longer make PIC for our cars. If they did I would say go with them if your doing mostly street driving. The gc koni setup you can order with custom spring rates so it can be smooth on the street. I choose higher rates because my car is mostly used on track. I drive maybe 500 miles a year with it.

Ah, okay. Thank you for the information! I do do a lot of street driving, and will definitely keep the rates in mind when looking into a new setup.

I’m sticking to 205 50 15 for now best tire selections and price. in the future i’d like to run a 225 45 15 up front on a 15x8 and 205 50 15 in the rear on a 15x7.

Changed out my upper and lower control arms this past 2 weeks. Also got the quaife into the trans and picked up a new steering wheel to replace the nardi.

Finally got a Autopower bolt in roll bar. I painted it Rustolem smoke gray. I can’t upload images because they are too large.
