hello new to touring cars I have just started playin around with my tc6 and wanted to implement Keven Herbert Timezone setup that i found on petit rc
I have a couple questions about the setup That I was wondering if anybody could help me with 1.Is the rear toe +3 degree in total does that mean +1.5degree on each rear wheel? When the set-up sheet states 3 degrees of rear toe, you should run 3 degrees of toe on each wheel, 3 degrees is 2.5mm shim at the RWD arm mount on both sides, with 0mm at the FWD arm mount. 2. The rear camber link position used in the setup is 1A but when in that position the links do not adjust short enough to get the camber the setup calls for Do you need shorter links to use these positions? When i built my car i noticed that the links where to long to run the 1-6 positions on the shock tower i removed 2-3mm worth of thread from both sides of the link which was a suitable solution, the links are still long enough to run the 7 positions front and rear. The TC5 links are the best solution but shortening them is also a option if you dont have any TC5 links. 3.The setup calls for "silver" ball studs do these studs have longer threads or is the neck of the ball stud itself longer The silver ball studs are 0.75mm taller than the black balls on the pillar between the threads and the ball itself, in a quick fix situation you can also run the black ball and a 1mm shim as Buckaroo stated. 4.last in the setup it calls for arm mount shims in millimeters but the manual says they represent different degrees. Is it a typo on the setup sheet or should i measure the shims and go with what the setup says ? Which arm mount shims that are used in this setup With the TC5/6 1* of toe is equal to 0.8mm, to get 3 degrees of toe you will need to run either 2.5mm of aluminium shims(3 degrees is equal to 2.4mm but we run 2.5 on our cars to acheive 3 degrees) or you can run a big and a small plastic arm mount shim that comes with the kit ADDED thought maybe i am confusing arm mount shims with FWD or RWD mount shims or are they the same thing? The way i see the FWD and RWD arm mount shims are that the FWD arm mount is always in front of the wishbone and the RWD arm mount is behind the wishbone What are the RWD and FWD mount shims? The FWD and RWD arm mount shims are spacers that go between the bulkhead and the arm mounts and through changing these for different sizes you can adjust your toe and track width of your car |

Yeah, noted that today. My LTC-R fit fine, no issues, but my MazdaSpeed 6 would not. Had to put 4mm spacers, like you said, to get the post tall enough. Strange!
That being said, the LTC-R is better all around for me though so it doesn't really matter. |
My mazda 6 fit fine as well.

Older Mazda 6 body does not have as much steering as Speed 6 body.

The speed 6 mounts ok on my car, it sits on the very top hole. be sure to measure for height, if you drop the front too much you have to sacrifice wing height to stay legal.

stock setup
has anyone tried the box stock setup? I and going to club race sat on very high traction aspualt, hopefully it is close to working:eek:
Is there an other setup that would give the car good rotation in turns on this type of track? |
