I am looking into the suspension thing and was wondering if any here has
any experience or feed back on the JRZ RS line. I understand this is there
street set up.. Thanks..

 

I use the JRZ RS set up -- works great -- fully adjustable for street and track and everything in between (although primarily a track set up). Call Tom at Turbo Performance Center (http://www.tpcracing.us/): 410-799-RACE (7223). He knows his stuff.

Thanks Craig. Yeah I am actually local to TPC I've had my car on their dyno a couple of time. Tom seems cool he wants me to do all the sway bars etc.. Do you think that for a mainly street driven car thats necessary??

 

I don't know if any of this is "necessary," but it does improve handling. I use TPC's sway bars -- they are a beefy 26 and 30 mm (larger than other available sway bars). I tried TPC's drop links, but ultimately switched to the ones made by The Racers Group (my mod list is inaccurate in this regard).

Your right necessary is the wrong word to use when talking about this stuff..
What did you not like about the TPC drop links??

 

I actually have my set of used JRZ double adjustable (with the remove resevoirs) for sale if you're interested. Sorry to hijack the thread.. those might be overkill for what you want and as Craig said these are a good kit.

 

Gee sharkster,

I always thought the JRZ two ways were an underkill.

 

haha best post in a while pal

 

Yes Chad, but 4-way systems require you to carry a pit crew and access to a shaker rig with data readouts and telemetry systems on the car to gain the most optimal settings. Have fun carrying a team with you to set up KA for each track you encounter. You might as well enter KA in an exhibition race at Petit Le Mans or something if you are going to go through that much trouble.

On another note, when it comes to JRZ, the only person I trust is Cary Eisenlohr. He's probably done more testing and knows more about these shocks than anyone on this side of the pond. My 2 cents.

 

Who is Cary Eisenlohr?? (sorry I am new at this)

 

Tyson,

I have found the JRZ's that I use to be very efficient simply by making a run around the course and then making a "single" adjustment. I continue to to that 3 or four times and at the end the car is handling pretty well.

I'm sure it could be optimized further, but it works for me.

 

Anyone using motons?

TIA

 

You didn't call yet lol There a good few people in the Bay Area on these. Some do a lot of tracking and some do less but they work really well on both. Get the right set up for your needs and surrounding hardware, a good alignment and tweak away:P
