  1. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    While I appreciate the technical discussion as an engineer, I have to admit that my on-track driving is mostly by feel. I've been slowly expanding my "envelope" over the years, and I believe all these Steeda parts I've added have definitely increased the car's envelope. So, this gives me...
  2. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    Norm, Just wanted to acknowledge that I've read a lot of your posts on the S197 Handling Section on Mustang Forums - thanks for the info over the years... Interesting question, I'm always so used to looking at the springs when the car is raised with a wheel off. So, I went and looked...
  3. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    JPB, Sorry to be late to reply to you question about living with the dual rate springs in a daily driver. The last 2 months, I've had to do my 50 mi/day commute in my '17 GT-PP with the Steeda dual-rates and adjustables. My '11 F150 died - long story - so driving what is supposed to be my...

    Check out these clips from Cool Tech. I use them to secure lap and tether to seat bolts. http://www.cooltechllc.com/ford-boss-302-parts-accessories/71--harness-clip-set-single-seat.html
  5. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    Chris, We're running the 3.1 at MSR next weekend. I hear you on TWS :( , need to get to MSR-Houston for some more variety! Mike, I don't know about Steeda days, when/where will they be? (I'm guessing over in your neck of the woods - I was in Columbus, GA, 2014~2016, but was too busy to...
  6. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    Chris, Thanks! Sorry, I'm doing Cresson again on 11/4, but won't be at Angleton. Need to get back down there, I haven't been in a LONG time. Since I'm still a Red noob, not sure how soon they will let me do rides. Probably not much of an issue for a fellow driver. I saw your profile...
  7. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    Steeda Upgrade Report Referencing my prior post from 7/28/17 (#148 page 10) Well, I FINALLY got to try out the new Steeda dual-rate springs, adjustable shocks, etc. on track at MSR - Cresson, TX, last weekend. The car felt great, and the biggest thing I noticed was the ability to get down...
  8. Tow Hook / Roll Cage - Suggestions / Input

    Your welcome Next Phase. Yeah, I did the roll-hoop last Winter, and did suspension mods (and tow hook) this summer ahead of upcoming Fall track-days. Have fun!
  9. Tow Hook / Roll Cage - Suggestions / Input

    It so happens, I've done both of these mods to my 2017 GT-PP this year. I selected the ZL1 Tow Hook but decided on the center-mount option, since I was concerned about torqueing it when pulling from the side. Also, I did not want to have to cut a slot in my upper grille. I was able to align...
  10. Recommend an inexpensive tire for track/HPDE

    Agree with the points made by Ryan above... I started my HPDE journey years ago on a bimmer with run-flats, and on all-season tires that came on my '08 Shelby GT. (Yeah, that was annoying!) I had good luck with the NT-05's, they stuck well for a 200 TW tire, and they gave great audible...
  11. Steeda Forum Discount code?

    Hey TJ, Got all my Steeda shocks/springs/camber/IRS stuff installed, and looking for a few finishing items before my first track weekend in a couple weeks. Can I get a code for the hood struts? I've seen some reviews where they have the secondary function of helping hold the windshield end of...
  12. Exhaust Smell In Vehicle

    I have the same issue. I don't drive it often, as it is a dedicated track day car, AND I have removed the rear seats with open passage to trunk area. I figured it must be because of the seat removal, but I am now more concerned because I assume the reports above are with the rear seats in...
  13. What is max front camber with plates?

    Update on my max camber. I was able to get -2.6 on the drivers side. Passenger could have gone a bit more, but I am happy with this amount. See updated pic below.
  14. What is max front camber with plates?

    See attached pics for each side. The driver's side is close, but there is some more adjustment possible. The passenger side has even more available. Will get my shop to free it up and try to get more camber.
  15. What is max front camber with plates?

    GTP: It may not be too big a deal. I think awareness & knowledge is the best thing for you. If they loosen it enough, they may not have any/much trouble. But, if they are unable to get enough, then you can share this info. Maybe have them move it all the way over, like the Fig. 11 shows on...
  16. What is max front camber with plates?

    Just had a great chat with SteedaTech. We confirmed that the assembly is correct, so it is likely the biggest issue is the weight on the wheels just not letting it move enough. I should have time to get this re-checked before my track day in Oct. (I'll post pix of where the shafts are located in...
  17. What is max front camber with plates?

    Noticed this post today. Note that I recently installed Steeda camber plates + Steeda Adjustables (F&R)+ Steeda dual-rate springs (F&R). Finally got to go get a my track alignment done yesterday, but they could only get -2.1* max with these camber plates. I don't think it was an install...
  18. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    Question for SteedaTech: Using this thread, as I have earlier posts with all the suspension gear I've installed, but the question is about the Steeda camber plates. I took the car to a shop to do the front/rear alignment after installing the Steeda goodies: adj shocks/dual-rate springs/IRS...
  19. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    TJ, Thanks for the response. Yeah, I don't think these parts are the reason. With the trunk exposed, higher chance of incidental smell into the car. I probably need to put a simple panel over the opening to the trunk. (The rear-seat delete kits out there are just too pricey for the...
  20. Steeda's New Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Springs - (Track Proven Winner!!!)

    First report after installing all these Steeda parts over a couple weekends... 555 8139 Steeda S550 Mustang Camber Plates (15-17 All) 555 8152 Steeda S550 Mustang Billet Rear Shock Mount - 12mm Rear Shocks (15-17 All) 555 8154 Steeda Dust Covers For Adjustable Pro-Action Shocks And Struts...
