RT142 Handling - Suggestions?

[too_quick]

Yeah ive got an adjustable Kmac sway bar in the rear works pretty well.. Need to learn how to adjust it properly though.. Gonna get one for the front soon too...

How do the 6kg springs feel? Ive decided to keep this car for street only and maybe the odd skid pan day so i wont something comfortable but still handle well.. Its got bilstien shocks in it so it handles nice. Just dont know about spring rates yet...

Thanks,

Chris.

If you want to drift i would go 9 or 10 in the front of a rt142, 6 is good for the street.

How did you set up the double sway bar.. Im interested in doing this.. Is it dodgy and does it work well?

thanks,

Chris.

i cut off the ring ends of the 2nd swaybar, then used 4 extra swaybar mounts (The ones with bolt holes either side-only on the irs toyotas, live axles have the shitty ones that wont work for this) and high tensile bolts to attach it to the original.
It is fairly dodge, and the only good place i could find to put the mounts ended up rubbing on the axles. But since then i've put some spacers in where the original swaybar is attached to the control arm which stopped them rubbing. I know it sounds difficult but once you look under the car and start doing it everything becomes easier to understand.

do a google search for "double swaybar" - theres one or two handy articles on how to do it
