You took all the weight off the front wheels (steering wheel) and if you take a quick turn you won't have that weight to hold those front wheels down. You are probly going to see some mean *** understreer. I know I read something about 4 wheel steering back there some where. You got prelude 4 wheel steering? Might not help at high speeds. That idea about the subs and neons wasn't the best but i think you might beifit from some weight over trhose front tires.

Anyone else?</TD></TR></TABLE>

Umm, mid-engine cas tend to turn faster than front engine cars. If he rally needs to take a quick turn all he has to do is nail the throttle, and flip the steering wheel.
It would be easier to put weight oer the front wheels with the suspension, and from what I cn see he's already taken that into account.

Great work Cody!

Exactly. I can vouch for this. My first car was a 73 Porsche 914 [2.0 Litre Mid Engine RWD setup] and turning was just as easy as said. In the spring I used to head up to the North Georgia Mountains [Suches, GA area] and drive the roads up there. Creating understeer with a platform as such is incredibly easy, and turning and handling is a snap. Simply throw yourself into the turn, juice the accelerator, and watch your rear end come around. GOD I miss my 914...

 

bumpin this one back up

 

tinker is the man

 

thats a badass project your doin there
not going to be the best daily driver (working on that thing is going to be a total bitch it seems like)

for Tinker

some one say something about a 2jz in a honda hehe

cant wait to see the end results!!! rwd del sol thats awsome...

 

keep up the good work tinker and that thing is going to be a street terror, I know I would be scared if I saw a del sol lift the front wheels off the ground

 

I cant wait to see this.

 

 

you guys can let this take a break, I wont be working on the car for quite some time now....too much work, too lil time, too lil money for the car.
DONT WORRY though, I will be updating as things progress

 

Wrong answer white boy

 

lol, I just need to win the lottery.
No, I need to get manifolds out, so I can bring the wait time down, so I can get MORE orders in, and make more $, so I can work on my car and get it done before next winter! make sense?
so in other words, Im broke when it comes to project money.

 

i say we start donations for the rwd delsol fund. too bad i have no money to donate......ok can we make a make mo's teg run fund too?

 

at the end of this whole thing, u should post how much it cost u to put this whole project car together... i gota see this

 

so far, a lil over $2k. Ive got every reciept(its a write off, W00t!), so there will be a grand total.

Lets keep donation runs to SERIOUS things, like people selling out because a loved one is in the hospital with no health insurance....

understeer would be pretty easy as well cause theres no weight on the pivot point (front of the car)
