CPU77,

H&R rear sway bar from Sharkwerks, middle setting,
Done deal. I garun-damn-tee it !!

MK

 

ok tx and which is the stiffest setting on GT3 Sway please hole 1, 2 or 3 with 2 obviously the middle 1, nearest the front wheels and 3 nearest the rear fender/exhaust

Anybody a PIC please of GT3 REAR Sway Bar

 

H+R sways are thicker and solid. GT3's are hollow and porsche OEM, for what you want the rear GT3 is fine

On an aside if someone wants to give me a neg rep in this thread at least be man enough to pm me so I know who you are and why??!

I only say what I know to be true or I have done to my car or one of my friends.................

 

When I took my car to the track (for lessons with a pro driver), the pro told me that I in no way needed anything stiffer for "my" driving abilities and intended use (I do not track the car regularly). Of course he may have just been slamming me on my abilities...

 

Yes Marty, and then some!! Camber plates, helper springs, ect!!

After a massive amount of thought and what the car was going to be used for I didnt want a "street/track" setup wanted full track.

some of the stuff isnt done yet cause of all the driving events I have coming up but I'll let ya know the total end result in a month or so!

 

Tom can only say from my side that all your responses to my posts have been true and faithful, so thks for your help thus far !

 

Thanks Richard, only try to help as share our knowledge as we all do!! Was quite surprised by the neg rep point from this thread, and re-reading it really cant see why, oh well..............thanks!!

 

So noboby knows what is the best or OEM setting for a REAR only GT3 SWAY bar now I have bought one to go with Pss9's ?

 

I am with Tom 100% too, but went w/ a slightly less expensive approach - PSS9 w/ H&R's (F&R). H&R's are adjustable and yes a little heavier than hollow but also less money (or they were) - pull the spare tire out and you more than make up for the weight difference (or rear seats). I set my H&Rs in the middle settings and need to play w/ them at the track.

For GT3 rear only I would suggest the middle and go from there - it is what I did back on my MK 1 GT3 (F&R) - then adjust towards your skills as you get better as a driver (track experience) - neutral or middle is a safe start ...

 

Sorry the question was GT3 rear only hole 1-2-3 - which is a complicated answer because of several factors - do you like understeer or oversteer - also going to depend on your tires - street versions or more sticky track versions - there is not a single answer to this simple answer - start w/ 2 and try moving to 1 after some runs.

 

Michael thks Sir I'll give it a whirl with the middle setting, how are your Pss9s set 4/3 or 3/2 ?

 

I have mine set a 4/3. Its the best compromise IMO. Stiff enough for the track but comfortable for street driving

 

Al and Martin thanks (you guys know what I mean, both great guys)

back to the thread.....

 

just to add...JRZ JUST came out with an AMAZING set of sways that make the GT3 bars look like toothpicks...they are pretty expensive though...

 

Did you have to change out the front drop links for the H&R Sways?
