Spring Rates?

[ScottHughes]

I understand if you don't want to share but what spring ratings are people using on clubsports with out rear wings? and who's removed the front Nik Lik Bar?

[Laurence7]

The original standard set-up for the Clubsport was 250lb/in front, 400 lb/in rear.
Due to the action of the rocker arms on the front, this means that the front is actually proportionally stiffer than the rear.
If you remove the front ARB, you'll need to go even stiffer on the front springs unless you like lots of oversteer

As Laurence suggests you need to do some dev work if you remove the nik-link. I don't run with one but I am in the minority. Can't remember what spring rates I ran before I added aero but I'd hazard a guess it was the same as Laurence says above.

With Aero I ran 275/500

Depends how you like it guv'

I know of a prosport that used to run 500 front and wait for it 1000 rear, on my clubsport tried 50 lbs over standard all round didn't work for me went back to the rates that Laurence gave, no idea whats on my prosport it seems to work but that could all change with the new bits i'm fitting!!

[ScottHughes]

Ummmm Looks like I best take the niklik with me along with a range of springs to Silverstone at the end of the month! RobC did you get around to checking the rates of the springs you had?

Sorry, no. I'll dig them out this w/end
