    Intrax 4 Way, Anyone got any settings?

    Hey Guys and Gals, well have now finished the car will post some pics soon I promise!!

    Had Simpson put the intrax kit that I found second hand on the car, all i can say is Holy Sh!t, they are amazing!! No comparison to anything else I have used!!

    Julian set them up at the mid level and they are great but not sure how many guys are running these and if anyone has any recommendations for the 4 different adjusters. It could potentially be a nightmare so am just looking for an idea for road, track and wet track.

    Cheers

    DuncanR inherited a set of these when he bought his CSL. I'm not sure he has settings for them though :whistle:

      Need to check that Duncan has the same spring rates and valving as you...

      Duncan has some base settings from Henk, some 'ring settings from Shirmer and some smooth circuit starting point settings from Julian (which were just off the top of his head as I asked him one day).

          AH well Duncan seems to be the man to ask! I have the normal valving for these from intrax they have not been changed, spring rates are 100 front 50 rear. Maybe will PM him if he doesn t come along soon.

          Cheers

              Iain, Think I am running 130 front, 70 rear, remember that car is lighter so spring rates seem stiffer than they would on a full fat car if you see what I mean...

              Cantfind1 - I wouldn't be surprised if Duncan had something funky on his valving as I think they may have been ring specific?

                          Hi,

                          I am slightly confused by this thread.

                          Setting up a Cars suspension especially with
                          4 way adjust is not just a case of here are some
                          settings, and away you go.

                          Setting up 4 way adjustable suspension correctly
                          for a Track Car would take about a morning with
                          somebody who knew what they were doing and had
                          all the information, and ideally you would need to
                          be able to test/set as you go.

                          There are many different paramiters with 4 way, and in
                          most, everytime you alter one setting it changes another
                          and so on.

                          Does the car have adjustable arb links, so that when set
                          the ARB pre load can be adjusted off, are you running linnear
                          or progessive springs, is the ride height set for a certain tyre
                          profile, has the car ever been corner weighted with half tank,
                          and so it goes on, and you've not even touched the Intrax yet.

                          Buying 4 way suspension is the easy part, setting it for
                          max mechanical grip on the car will be a lot harder and
                          far more complex, and not something anybody can learn
                          in few minutes of somebody eles's settings.

                          A properly set up CSL on standard suspension will lap faster
                          than a CSL on 4 way, unless its been corectly set up on
                          the Car and tested.

                          After investing in the 4 way, now you have to invest in making
                          it work. There is no free lunch.

                          Regards,

                          The Gorilla.

                            +1. It's very good and very simple........................and I need that.:clown:

                            Gorilla is spot on and I'd say that applies to 1K2 as well, only way easier to play with.

                              You have a habit of over complicating things.

                              I can tell a Tyres pressure with a kick of my right boot and set up any suspension by phone within 10 minutes.

                              Good rates to!
