It pretty much is an off road rally stage dude I wish I was joking the wrc was actually based where I live too they had a good bit of travel on there setups lol. I get what you are saying dude I'm well up to speed on suspension. I have a shock on my push bike that has an air pressure compression adjustment , ending stroke (bottom-out) adjustment, low speed rebound adjustment ,beginning stroke compression adjustment, ending stroke compression adjustment, Spring preload and sag adjustment the thing took me nearly 3 months to set up lol. I'm just happy the way my car performs so I see no reason for me to get coilovers. I a had a GT with a set it was like a go kart through bends good fun but not so good when it came to the road surface it spent most of the time on. The way I have it now is sweet compared to it. I know people are going to say maybe its just the coilovers I have experienced well if I can get a set of coilovers that can put up with the pots holes , dips and cambers of the roads we have and give me the same comfort I will gladly buy them. Just my opinion though
Yea, that sound pretty rough. :haha:
I see you are pretty up to date with suspension... that is one of the reason I decide to not offer the high end suspension that I been working on.
I done a prototype coilovers (For my demo BNR32) that is a fully dual perch design, with external reservoir to hold oil and accept nitrogen gas pressure. Combined with separate adjustments for low speed compression, high speed compression, and rebound.
The problem with suspension like this is most people (including myself) actually lack the needed experience to adjust such coilovers.
This especially show up in tracks as I was talking to an engineer how increasing the bump (compression) may make the car more stable in certain corners, but less stable in other parts of the circuit; it get very intensive and depend largely on what the "driver" want the car to do. But in most case, drivers have NO IDEA... it is up to the engineer to ask the right question to them so he can adjust the suspension for the drivers... :slap:
One of the thing I did with the MeisterR Zeta-R coilovers is packing as much damper stroke travel i can possibly do given the space. This is a bit difficult as there isn't alot of "space" in the rear of the EP82/91 chassis. So providing a coilovers that can lower enough for the our "liking", along with providing enough springs and damper stroke travel using the 4.0kg/mm springs (which require longer springs and travel due to its weight) get quite precise. I am happy with the new design and I am sure most customers will be happy also.
It should provide compliant handling through rough roads, along with enough damper travel so you won't bottom out, plus have enough adjustment to lower the car or raise the car to your desire ride height.
