GT3 clams need the splitter, they're actually mounted to the splitter if my memory serves me right. Splitter is mounted to the chassis

As said above the gt3 clams sit on top of the splitter , Im sure the front end is something like 4" longer than a standard car as well

Few more pics ive found online from the trackday.

Definitely quite a bit of body roll there. What arb does it have? That made a huge difference to my elise.

At the moment standard , I have corneringforce adjustable rear and bladed front bars on order.
They should have been fitted in time for that trackday but there was a delay, the spring rates are soft at 300/450 but they were designed to work with the rollbars that were never fitted at the time.

I did get my catch cans and removable wheel and gauges for oil temp/pressure and gearbox oil temp fitted though

I had 350/450 springs (nitrons street series) on my elise and they were pretty decent. I only had an upgraded (slightly thicker) front arb and it was spot on.

The arb alone made a huge improvement to roll even on the standard springs.

The car is now listed forsale but I do still have more parts arriving for it that I ordered to complete the suspension package.

Cornering force roll bars, look to be very nicely made. I'm going to try and get them fitted before my next trackday at the end of the month.
