Since then i have sorted out my understeering issue as i was lossing to much exit speed. I do however need some solid motor mounts, any vendors here carry some ? And I'm thinking intercoolers.

I'm thinking redline too as they are true solids. It also saves weight in the back of the car.
Thank you Eugene. This one you can see the good use of the brake system
Which you will also be enjoying ![Wink](https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Yes, I have taken my 1980 Benz to the track. Yes I have a few loose bolts. I asked if i could take my Smart Car but they said no unless I have a roll bar![Frown](https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

The Wevo units are almost solid. Can't comment on true solids, but a tiny bit of urethane absorbing vibration seems like a good idea. I recently did the wevo mounts with 997T tranny mount and it was noticebly better AND almost un-noticebale in terms of ride harshness after a couple days of getting used to it.
Are you running more front camber, fatter fronts and a rear bar to dial out the understeer? I found that combination very effective. 255/35-18s will squeeze on the stock fronts and won't rub (even with 15mm spacers) They are are a perfect diameter match to the stock 295 rears. Also 15-21mm rear spacers will increase your track pretty significantly.

As for my front camber, I'm running 3.2 or something around that line. At the track I like 245/35/18 hoosiers ( on this particular day i was running 245/40 ) . That's an equivilent of a 265 street tire, from what i'm told. I do have slight rubbing issues on the outside fender with that size up front. The rear in this particular day I was running 295's but i prefer the 315's on a 12 inch rim. I do however rub slightly on the inside. I need a 3 mm spacer and I think i will be fine with no rubbing on my hoosiers.
p.s.
The wheels are GT2 offsets.

Adjusting my rebound and compression settings. Going stiffer up front reduced my entry understeer which is what i was having pretty bad. Also having cycled out tires up front didn't really help. I added a rear 996 GT2 swaybar to have a slightly stiffer rear end but also with adjustability. This seemed to cure the problem and i was able to fine tune even more so with the suspension. The car feels near perfect. It just needs some solid motor mounts so i can feel one with the machine
