Thanks! I have the VBOX Sport GPS which is highly accurate with a 20 Hz refresh rate. This stores the data to it's own SD card as a ".vbo" file. I then import the VBO and video files into Racerender and it overlays the gauges on the video. The camera is 100% independent from the GPS until I merge the files with Racerender.

The VBOX also has bluetooth which can talk to apps real time like Solostorm, Harry's Laptimer, etc. The VBOX also comes with it's own desktop software which is very powerful for data analysis. For this event I had Harry's Laptimer going (you can see my phone in the video) to give me real-time data between runs.

What is allowed in B-Street? I have no idea on the rules. LOL Noob!!!

gomer_110 · 03-22-2017, 08:12 PM

Dampers (but not springs), one sway bar (your choice although on our cars it would be the front), CBE, +/-1" wheel diameter but still factory width and offset, and 200TW tires (whatever you can fit on the allowed wheels). That's pretty much it.

what sway bar do you recommend my friend? Im looking to buy the front sway bar but dont know If go with White Line or Hotchkis

gomer_110 · 03-23-2017, 06:57 AM

I run mine in ASP so my setup isn't going to be the best comparison. I know when Street/Stock class ran Hoosiers the Hotchkis bar was the bar or choice. With the move to street tires I'm not sure what the preferred option is now.

Can you tell me what front upper control arms do you have on your Z? Im making my list on suspension mods hahaha! I know the SPL are great but daaaamn! that price

xxAGAVExx · 03-24-2017, 07:37 AM

Still stock, I'm saving up for SPL. Depending on your set up you might not need it, if you are dropped and need your camber back to stock then yes you need something, but the only thing I can't get back to stock is camber and I don't want to, I want the additional negative camber, but if I want more negative camber I need some upper control arms.

Thanks for the info bro! I really appreciated.

Im going to start saving to complete my suspension setup

I have the Kinetix camber arm, they seem to work ok.

zpower86 · 03-24-2017, 11:35 AM

I have the SPL front endlinks that I'm willing to sell. Never used. PM me an offer if anyone is interested.

gomer_110 · 03-28-2017, 08:49 AM

Just placing some ballast weights equal to your weight in the drivers seat should get the job done if they won't let you sit in it.

Brendan · 04-06-2017, 10:21 PM

Replaced the end links with some oe style ones with greasable joints. We'll see how long they last. Has anyone with a hotchkiss front bar found a quiet, reliable endlink solution?

edit:

Maybe I'll cop these lol

gomer_110 · 04-06-2017, 10:40 PM

I have the SPL endlinks and haven't noticed them to make any noticeable noise.
