Just curious. This is far cry from my 85' targa with minimal track set-up.
Can't wait to get it!
the front spring seem a bit soft compared to the rears. The nearest comparison I can come up w/ is H&R 964 Cup 455 lb/in front 685lb/in rear f/r ratio 0.664

factory Cup 600/800 ratio .75

your ratio .583

the lower the ratio the more oversteer.

Not sure what the other #s are, camber? if so depending on tires and usage that's could be a lot

looks like the car is set up for track use

I like the tire sizing especially if the wheels are 8 & 9.5

pics are always appreciated

hopefully some of the 964 afficianados will comment
