I ordered a GT3 back in '04 for a track toy. I had it built w/o AC and ceramic brakes. Then I added the euro light weight seats, porsche roll bar, etc.

As the car was on order, I made an unplanned moved to Austin, Texas from NY. The car went into storage because there was no local tracks. A track finally opened in Austin last month, so after 4 years, I finally get the car on the track.

I am running the Michelin Pilot Sport track tires. I feel far too much under-steer and an overall lack of grip. So rather than turn into the corner and easy out on the exit, I was using the throttle to tighten the radius by sliding the rear. It looked real cool, but not that fast. I think that I got as close as possible with tire pressure. I am hoping that someone out there has an '04 GT3 that has sorted out the suspension adjustments.

What are the recommended camber and sway bar settings from the stock set-up? (I was a factory rally driver and my only extensive suspension set up experience is with AWD on gravel roads....so I am really lost!)

Thank you for the help!

 

Try this post over on rennlist gt3 forum. Lots of discusions on the matter. Then I can copy it on my 04!

go to rennlist
check 996 gt3 section -- if you search suspension in the gt3 forum you will have enough reading for days...

you can search by poster as well -- try NJGT

 

Search for the Roland Kussmaul settings, which is what 95% of the track junkies are running in the 996 GT3's. That's what I ran for 17 out of 18K miles on my 996GT3
