PUNCHIN-IT

Ok so, I took the car on the freeway, and there is little swaying. On the freeway, swaying occurs when I hit bumps and occasionaly it sways on its own.

I just finished with adjusting the wing to zero angle. I can't test it cuz I ran out of day light

I'll have to wait until tomorrow.

I'll remove the extensions for my next attempt if the wing continues to sway.

Just to make it clear. The wing should have absolutely no swaying under any and all circumstances? Because when I push the wing with some force (15-20lbs?), the wing does move a little.

I'll take a video tomorrow so you can see what I'm talking about.

Alright, if there are anymore suggestions please let me know.

Btw, the car will be used primarily for street driving. But, I'll occasionally track and auto x the car. I live in New York, so that means I will see some bumpy roads.

holy downforce batman! looks like you have it set up for MAX DF!

Eh I think the swaying just happens when the stands are to tall let's be honest the stands are not that sturdy Under daily driving at like 10mph I would hit a bump and I would watch the wing shake

Yes it'll sway from bumps but that wing generates huge df and more drag like I said. Even at 245 stands, this wing is plenty capable. Take off extensions as you have added unnecessary height and weight up top to cause more sway. If you want to run this, get safety ties

im going to go ahead and say it since noone else has...get a spare trunk and use that one you already have for when you do track it...completely stupid and pointless to ride around looking like a shopping cart if youre daily driving

I didn't get a chance to take a video, but the wing sways less than the video above. The understeer has drastically changed after changing the angle of the wing to flat.

I'm gonna go with what lickymywalker said with taking the extensions off, I think its unecessary for my current setup, maybe in the future I could use it. After a couple of tests, I also think the swaying is impossible to remove completely because of what johnmizu said.

I don't DD my s2k, and I will probably never will. I try to drive it on the weekends for spirited driving on some nice twisties. But, sometimes I don't get to drive it for a few weeks.

Btw, what do you mean by safety ties? Is there a place I can research or read about this? I think I want to put safety ties even without the extensions.

Thanks for all the replies and advice guys. I appreciate it.

Glad you reduce the sway. I would definitely run the wing at zero AoA. Depending on the track and driving style you may want to increase the angle but imo it's not necessary. Good luck and have fun.

I've seen countless wing set up like the OP that sways side to side (a little play movement). A friend's S, Steguis, has the APR set up that didn't sway at all. You figure, for the price (around $1000), the least they could do is make it sturdy.
