Steve Weiner-Rennsport Systems

Here is a quick shot of the first MCS dampers for 964; these are the front struts. Some of the features are 15 adjustments of bump (on the cannisters) and 15 adjustments of rebound (on the shock shafts). Cannister lines have full swivels at each end to assist mounting.

Strut bodies (top pic) are plated steel and rear shock bodies (bottom pic) are anodized aluminum.

Yeah, really Kai... not like you have much to do with those or anything. Steve and I stayed up late last night and shoe-horned them into my car. I like them so far.

I must say, they ARE very smooth,....

they're one of the first, my friend has them on his 964 for 3 weeks now! nice setup and good luck with the build.

DAYUM!!! And I thought we'd be the first. I'm sure your friend is in hog heaven - I wonder how they do in the snow...

bassam

we will be in MSR Houston for the first 2012 Nasa race this weekend, and yes he is very happy with his new setup. The only thing I noticed is the VERY limited camber adjustibility when installed on 993 aluminum uprights. No snow here in south Texas what spring rates are you planning on using?

KaiB

We're using 600/800, but the car will come in at less than 2500# with cage. Steve has a few suspension tricks also.

I wonder why the camber issue; we've got over 3.2* with the Evo uprights.

Steve started me with 600 800, I changed them to 800 1000 after few months and I love the handling in fast transitions, my car is 2300 lbs. I had to move my front suspension attachment to the turbo holes in the tub to get a lot of negative.

KaiB

I'll toss this post out so others here might see and not be tempted to run to the strongest springs they can get.

We landed on 600/800 for a raft of reasons, one of which is Steve's experience with these cars, the other primary reason is the fact that I've spent untold hours with him, both on the phone and at the shop - working out my preferences and needs in the car.

An immediate jump to high spring rates is not often the fastest way around a track for all of us - time, results and good coaching will determine when, and if, we alter springs.

I look forward to meeting you this season - be wise though, at new tracks in Texas, we disquise the car with a moustache and nose so nobody recognizes us until we're up to speed!!!

bassam

Looking forward to meet you too, always nice to have another 964 and a Rennlister on the track. well prepared, those cars can still compete at a club level. Here's a video of last year in Hallett, best lap was 1:21

GTS4 - I hope?

I'm hoping for 23s...

bassam

GTS4 but running ST2 this year as there are more cars (better for tire contingency)
