Default 06 STU drivers

So I have a Whiteline 22-26 RSB on the way to the house and I'm wondering what setting to put it at from the start. I'm pretty sure pre-06 guys are doing 24mm settings so should I start at 24 or should I just set it at 26 and use rear tire pressure to dial in the rear of the car?

Do you have an upgraded front sway bar as well? I think it's a mistake to run the stock front sway bar in STU.

I have the Whiteline 24mm FSB set at full stiff, and a Whiteline 24mm RSB at the middle setting. I think the car feels great like that.

OK, then I'd set the FSB to 27mm and the RSB to 24mm. It'll depend on your other mods but I think that's a good starting point.

I agree! I have the 24-26mm front and back and have the front at 26 and the rear at 24. I had the rear on full stiff, but it was way to "twitchy" for my liking. Now its much more stable under sharp turns.

But if the front is already set at 29 then should I still do the rear at 24 or should I take it to full stiff at 26?
