Pretty cool products, but that shock rods looks really close to the body at 6:28 … any chance it touches? Also do u need to adjust bump steer after adding caster?
Thanks for the comment. Yes that right they are close but they will not touch 👍 we have designed as much caster into the front top mounts as you can achieve before any of the oem components make contact with any part of the chassis or wheel arch. So although close, it cannot move from this position and will not touch anywhere. No need to adjust bump steer if you’re just increasing the caster using the top mounts. The bump steer correction is required when lowering the car quite a lot mainly for track use 👍 bump steer tie rod ends feature in our full kinematics kit for the GT4RS.
Thanks for the comment. We agree that driver training is definitely money well spent. That said, drivers of all capability levels will encounter the issues with tyre wear out on track that we discuss in this video as the lack of camber in the system really does strip the outside edge away even if you’re not a pro 👍 we see the same results on stock Porsche GT cars with a very wide range of our customer base. We will actually be getting trained ourselves soon by a pro driver coach next year as part of our GT4 series and will be measuring the gains there too which we can’t wait to share with you.
@@SuspensionSecrets Porsche sports cars respond very well to additional camber and my 991 Cup liked about 4.5 degrees up front and around 4 degrees in the rear and took it up to nearly 6 degrees.
@@Mrdfastcars weird because I'm pretty sure -2.0 was the max. I was there when they set he alignment and I told the maximm front (which was 2.0) and from 1.6 go to 1.8 rear. (no plates and no ride height changed!! nothing)
@@Mrdfastcars on the Spyder RS that's not possible. wihout lowering the car. (In the Spyder RS global forum the guy confirmed he needed to lower the car to get to 2.5)..... The GT4RS is lower than thy Spyder RS.

Best upgrades are driver training and seat time. Don't waste time on mods untill you can drive a good friction circle.
Good advice to a point. As a Cayman driver who chunked a couple sets of tires before adding camber and spring rate, these mods are money well spent.

Glad you can get 2.5 camber on the GT4RS. On the Spyder RS it's only 2.0 :(
Same parts and chassis. You can get the same on either car. I have -2.7 with no parts.

@ well I run -2.7 front and -2.2 rear with no parts.

very interesting
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
It's crazy how these parts are double the cost just because they are made for a Porsche. Hate that about this platform.
