the dump ass who sets up the track here make the lanes and coner so close and so narrow that i rely on momentum to get thru some S coners coz the clutch won't engage at such a slow speed
and unfortunately that's the only track i am able to go to play

1. Narrow your car. Go to 194 or 195mm and the rear track 1mm narrower than front, this will help you rolling on the turns and be more agile through it.
2. Use higher roll center supports.
3. Probably you will be happy putting less caster (try with the 1mm shim at the front, rest of shims at rear) and more front camber.
4. Check with a thinner rear diff oil, something like 7000.
What do you use at front? diff or one-way?
About the problem of the clutch, probably you're using the Extra hard spring, try the stock one and set your clutch gap to 0.3mm or 0.4mm.

Re: Mugen Shocks

I need some assistance, after a good day out on the track my Mugen shocks are no longer damping well. If I remove the springs and compress the shocks, the piston will not fully extend. The reason I found is that the diaphram collapses a bit and is no longer the shape of a dome. Anyone has this problem and knows of a solution? Thanks.

I'd say 180 degree if you want to spread the load evenly.
I still think that a hole in the outdrive and a screw that goes though would be best, but it would be harder to find it.
Maybe we could grow hair on the outdrive

Are there other ones besides the Mugen ones that will fit the Mugen shocks?? My LHS is fairly limited and no time to order online now.
