Rally Setup
So I am trying to help a friend find a setup for our AE86 Rally car.

I know that RWD cars are popular and many AE86s have been used in Rally events. I also know that there are Rally setups out there and that TRD used to offer Rally suspension (springs) etc for the AE86, but 20 yrs later, it can be difficult.

My friend has an AE86 HB which has been converted to rally, but is currently on the stock SR5 (base model) suspension and brakes (which will be getting upgraded soon.) I hope to act as navigator and we hope to be more competitive and getting the right suspension would greatly help.

This car primarily will be used in local Rally Cross (racing around a course of cones, usually in a field) and possibly Stage rally (sanctioned events using forestry roads or logging roads). The conditions may vary, but suspension is important, however i realize it can be very costly. But just finding a base to start from has been a challenge.

What I wold like to know is, does anyone have any current AE86 rally cars, and or suspension setups that would work for our car?

What we are needing are:
Spring MFG
Spring KG for F and R
Shocks F and R
Tires (conditions)
and any other relevant info that would help make our car competitive.
Even links for web sites that discuss setups.

We have used many resources here, but it was not nearly as popular as Europeans usage of this RWD platform.


Thanks
