Ride height?

[Raceroger]

Hi!

I just wounder which ride hight you use, the same front or rear or?
I know the ride hight have regulations but I just like to know if you use drop or have the same front and rear height?.

I'm running 100mm / 130mm but I'd also be interested in what other people are using.

Good question.

Where are we measuring from? Floor to fender?

What is 100mm/130mm measured from? The floor to undercarriage? so 4" in the front and 5 1/4" rear?

There's a couple of bolts that you measure distance to from the floor. The GT3 shop manual has a description.

Great! I'll just go open up my GT3 Shop manual....oh, wait...

The Boxster Spec rules specify the measuring points (I am quoting this since we're in the Racing Section);

Ride height minimum 90 mm front and rear as measured at front cross of aluminum cross member and front-to-rear braces near rear sway bar.

Of course, there are a myriad other ways to measure this.

From personal experience I think 90mm is too low and 100mm is probably pretty close to my current setting. Add in a bit of forward rake and front tire grip improves dramatically.

If you run as high as 130 rear don't you feel the car over steer then?
I run about 95mm both front and rear but don't know if it's optimum?

No significant oversteer but there's of course several other factors that go into that.
