thanks for that!

tarett supposedly has low profile rear toe control arm. so maybe no need for spacer then? it'll allow wheel to be tucked in closer too.

I will have to check my paperwork in the wheel stud kit. The upgraded LSD was highly suggested by Goldcrest Motorsports especially if I was going to run the Hoosier tires. They felt this mod would benefit me greatly with the direction I was going. They have been running Geiken diffs in world challenge without any issues that was good enough for me.

Have you adjusted aero? Looks like wing is in stock position.
Same here. I track and when I get my GT4 I would like references.

how did you get a set up with stock rear toe links, also I would not track on slicks with rubber rear toe links, you will get bad rear steer as the tyres will cause too much load on rubber !

a geo print out would be helpful. but slicks and rubber bushings don't go hand in hand on road cars made for track. always a fine line.

Your welcome to post your comments its a free world mrd spy, but I am not here to debate my car or parts. I posted my car and mods to show what I have done. You are free to post your cars and debate anything you want. Cant wait to see what your stable looks like.

It was a great day to be at Barber, the weather was 70 and overcast which was very nice. I spent all last year driving my 991 gt3 no mods except half cage. I can truly say I was very relieved to know that the money I spent on the gt4 (MODS) was well worth it. I was able to run 1 second faster then my gt3 first time in the seat. Next weekend I will be at Road Atlanta which I know very well, this will make a better place for me to size the cars up. I had read a lot about people complaining about the gear ratio, it ended up being the only thing I didn't like at this track. Road Atlanta is very fast and long so it might not be such a issue will see soon. I did speak to Goldcrest last night and we are talking about the options to fix this. I guess it depends on how much money I want to spend...LOL For what its worth I can say all I did so far to the car made me very happy. I am not a guy that throws money at stuff to be cool it really has to be worth it and work. I hope this helps will be posting more soon.

Thanks for the posts and letting us in the waiting line live vicariously through you. My 15 GTS had the fluid overflow spray as well, actually I think just about everyone on that track that day had some overflow spray like that.

ChrisF I will get the alignment specs posted on here so people can compare. The LSD was amazing in my opinion it really kept the car hooked up. With all the parts I felt more connected with the car then my GT3 it really handled very well.
