Now that my NSX has become a track only car and that I am getting more and more experience, I ask myself some questions on the future suspension upgrades I could do.
I now run Tein Flex (not the Mono) with the 10/12 springs, stock f&r sway bars, Type R chassis bars, 240/610/17 front and 260/640/17 rear Yoko A005. I have (do not remember exactly) ~2.3° camber front with 9.5° caster and ~3° camber rear. Tire wear seems pretty even.
What I experience is that the ride feels pretty good and neutral. Depending on the track I change the front damping setup from 25% (slow track with tight corners) to 75% stiff (fast track) front. I have a problem with the damping adjustment rod at the rear which I broke in the damper. So I am always at 0% stiff (and that is another reason why I want to change my coilovers).
I think about a stiffer setup with street/track sway bars (or track sway bars ?) and other "not to expensive" coilovers (the Mono Flex with 12/14 ? 14/16 ? Zeal ? SoS ?).
What I fear is that the stiffeness induces a more slippery ride. Or will the fact that less mass will be transfered on the outer wheels have the opposite effect and give more grip ?
Thanks.
