    High speed compression for gravel or tarmac ? Can you give us a video on different suspension setup for different surfaces.

    Do you usually lift cars like Subaru WRX STI when preparing them for rally on loose surfaces? If so, by how much compared to the stock suspension?

    This is the most useful info I've found shocks. Thanks a lot for the effort for bringing us this information. Best regards from Bolivia.

    Would you use a completely different set of suspension for tarmac, or can these be adjusted for both on and off road conditions? Either by adjustment or minimal part swapping?

    What’s the service interval on a set of the Reiger Clubmans? Is it 60hrs as mentioned in the servicing video or longer with the more basic damper? I’d like to run something like that on my WRX for street/gravel road use and I’d like it to last 2 yrs between services if possible.

    Who does your shock tuning? Beyond being adjustable, what are the major differences in damping between the motorsports and the stock dampers? Do the upgraded shocks offer more travel? Thanks, keep up the good videos.

      I had ProFlex evo2 inverted coilovers on my Forester, didn't like them as they were too harsh even with very low damping because the bearings make too much friction, even with the appropriate grease as it gets wiped off of the bearings very fast, having no seals to keep them lubricated. I had 22cm front/25cm rear wheel travel. I now have HotBits non-inverted coilovers with approximately the same overall length but gained 2cm of wheel travel. I am very happy with the Hotbits, only downside being the oil seals that worn off/leaked very fast due to a bad design but replaced with U shaped seals. Now for hard rally conditions, the inverted coilovers are much more robust than the non-inverted coilovers but I'm not driving in those conditions....

    I was expecting to see a mich longer shock body, with idk... a long helper spring, and a short main spring. Perhaps internal position sensitive shocks? I want to see WRC rally 1 stuff that rides low, but has 12" of droop travel for soaking up big landings.

  • @boppernostopper8598
    @boppernostopper8598 Год назад

    Is something like Baratec that much nicer on build quality that Cusco Rally coilovers? not just for the hydraulic bump stops... and with that being said do hydraulic bump stops greatly prevent breaking and long term permanent damage?

    How does rally suspension ride compared to stock/ something designed for street?

    • @DirtFish
      @DirtFish  5 лет назад +5

      It's a lot stronger and gives you more adjustability. What we use here is specifically designed to function better and last longer on rough and loose surfaces.

      for most coilovers you don't actually adjust the spring, its where it connects to the control arm.

      Haha, not really. If you have a really low budget then maybe, but considering the amount of money you need to put in (safety equipment, suspension upgrades etc) you are better off buying a better car than that. Lots of older awd cars out there that would do you good
