I am currently considering one of these two cars mid this year.The RB320 has adjustable rear suspension (adjustable rear strut bar IIRC) so can be nose pointy 4wd style for daily driving a can be adjusted for a little tail swinging fun for trackdays: see clip below

As well as that it has the adjustable diff as well as I think

In a 2006 Spec C is it possible to get the rear end out on a track like RB320 in video. Does it have adjustable rear strut & dcdd diff controller?

Apologies for mistakes in what I have said as I have never owned a Scooby.

 

yes mate if u set the diff to the rear i am pritty sure it will play ball..

 

I'm not sure if the 320 has an adjustable rear ARB (not strut) or not, the cnetre diff locking is adjustable, more locking gives more understeer, less locking gets the tail out due to the rear torque bias (the torque split stays the same though, its is NOT adjusted by the DCCD, that only affects the limited slip function and therefore the torque bias when one axle is trying to turn faster than the other.

I own a Spec C Type-RA, and yes, it is possible to get the rear end out, even with the DCCD in auto mode.

 

The thing I found was the hotter the RE070's got, the grippier they got, so when cold its pretty easy to get the tail right out, when hot it still will, just not to a great extent.

The RB does have an adjustable anti roll bar, never heard anyone on the owners club website actually adjusting it though.

 

Thanx for advice chaps
I have now decided against the RB320 in favour of a Spec C Just need to sell my 350z Gt now!

 

I still contest that's not a BMW chasing the Impreza, more like the Catheram or Atom they were testing on the same day.

 

I've had the rear out in my standard STI PPP with DCCD in auto...

 

Its not; EVO journo made a mistake as quoted on another video link. The BMW was half a lap or so ahead; the chase camera car was a Caterham & the sound is that of the Caterham

 

me too and mines standard sti

 

As exciting as tail out stuff is its much, much slower than good balanced cornering. The chase car is never an m-coupe I have driven a 400bhp one at Bruntigthorpe and it didnt go, sound or handle like that.

The RB320 is an amazing road car though a great balance of everything and looks awesome.

 

I get the back end out on my 06 WRX
Drive train all std
Just need to work at it
its ace fun though.

 

You'll end up getting told off if you keep getting the tail out on a public trackday.

 

only on the track

drive at 30 all the time on the public track
my mate is a traffic cop, says they have lots of spare cash to spend before end of tax year in our area. (Dewsbury) speed camera vans out spending it he says. so defo 30 in a 30 40 in a 40 and so on. Oulton park booked 29th April. booked and going. back end out then. it would be nice to have a bit of rain for an hour that day.

 

mate save yourself a fortune,i can't keep my 95 sti ra in a straight line! takes me back to my ae86 twin cam days.....but seriously,if your commited you should have no bother getting a newage jdm/uk spec sti to do some drifting.

 

The settings on a JDM Newage center diff control are tame to say the least compared to a classic. You want to try out a Classic Type R with the diff fully open...... different kettle of fish altogether!!!

 

Heart in mouth moment, thats from personal experience.. you have to respect the car in diff-free otherwise it will bite your **** off

 

Wise words I shall remember!!
