Thanks for the help, John. I think I will go with the 1.0. then tune from there with tire pressures and my Konis.

So when I switch to the G6 knuckles I'll have 14.8:1 steering ratio? ...not sure if I read what you posted right.

only if you install LNF knuckles. the LSJ steering arm is longest. The competition knuckle has a shorter steering arm. The LNF knuckle is shorter still. I did not calculate the steering ratio for the competition knuckle its not worth the effort....

Good read.

I've had rwd cars on the track and like a setup that's more prone to oversteer (if it wasn't neutral). But with mine I'm thinking id rather have the opposite. Under steer can be corrected (like stated by john) with carefully backing off the throttle (hopefully not causing liftoff oversteer) and straightening the front wheels slightly. I've seen too many videos of guys in these cars on the track where either liftoff oversteer, suspension setting setup incorrectly (overly stiff rear sway bar), or slight driver error has led to the ass end of the cars coming around. Not that under steer in extreme situations is pretty either, but its more controable in these cars.

I'm running a hardcore rear bar, yyzs (v5) and will be getting konis as well, probably going to run direzza z2s. What's everyone prefer for tire sizes, pressures and shock (koni) settings?

My bad thought I was replying to the other thread sorry for bumping this
