What spring rates would you sugest?
|
Depends on strut and swaybar choices, and if it's gonna be a street car anymore or not. At least 400/300, maybe as high as 500/400.

Who are you talking about when you say nationally competive drivers, and what cars are you up against?
|
Richard West in his $40k+ Subaru 2.5RS is the first one who comes to mind. He's very quick, as is the car. Another local nemesis is Courtney Cormier in his Neon. Again a very fast driver. There are others around, but I don't follow Nationals as much as I should.
Also- FWIW, I don't autocross much because I prefer road course events, so I know I'm out of practice, but it's not uncommon for Richard to beat me by 3-4 seconds at any one of the handful of events I might attend in any given season.

Also what is your car setup? I have driven an RS for the last two years and feel that the SE-R could be competitive .

Setup is at
http://www.get-fast.net/93ser.html ... right now the car is in need of some Azenis and a Quaife. Suspension feels ok and power is adequate, but I need traction and grip.
I don't know if the SE-R could be nationally competitive and I'm really not the right guy to ask for a qualified opinion. All I was trying to say above is that there are plenty of folks with big budgets and years of experience who have come to STS and done very well. I just autocross for fun occasionally but it still hurts sometimes to get whooped so badly. :-)
Just my opinion as always,
Jon
