I Know everyone adjusts there heights and some of it may be information they don't want to share, but what is the baseline ride height of the cup car, 997.1 and 997.2

 

Here is the basic setup chart from my 2012 997.2 Cup Technical Manual. Hope this helps.

 

carrera cup regs are 80mm/120mm minimums

 

2006-2008: 77 and 115mm
2009: 73 and 120

 

I never understood what the Toe metrics were in the manual. Wtf is 5' / 15'

 

I think the numbers are for the toe angles:
- 5' is "Negative 0 degree 5 minutes" or "Toe out 0.08 degree"
+ 15' is "Positive 0 degree 15 minutes" or "Toe in 0.25 degree"

 

does anyone know the rsr ride-heights?

 

2009 RSR

60mm front
70mm rear

Messured at floor

 

Im assuming all these cup heights are measured by the standard way porsche does this?

Im trying to figure out which baseline ride height to use for my car which is a 2007 GT3 (not cup), that has all OEM 2012 cup body work. Im in the process of choosing my suspension, looking at Ohlin's coilovers and a few others, and either full RSS tarmac stage 2, or OEM cup suspension bits.

 

Tye,
Tried to email you a diagram that shows measuring locations yesterday or day before. Maybe your spam filter got it.

 

Ahh never got it and emptier spam folder without really looking. Please email it to bmwtye@gmail.com

Thanks

 

That's the delta you want front to rear to get the car to turn properly.... no lower than 115 rear if you are bombing the curbs the sway bar tabs don't like that so much

Ever considered JRZ?

 

I'm at 110 rear in my 997.2. Why is 115 important?

 

Yes, im considering several options right now, JRZ, ohlins, bilstein clubsports, or trying out the stock stuff with the TPC DSC controller. Im not pro racing, this is for fun. I had JRZ rs pro on my e36 m3 and really liked them, but they were a bit punishing on the crappy roads in SF

 

115 is important for two reasons. one being the static angle of the axles, and the other is hitting curbs.

you can run lower than that but it is not so nice on the axles, especially in high compression high load situations.
