Well man look...don't expect any useful suggestion. These settings are for the track. Otherwise use stock oil. Spring colour, shock oil, differential oil, sway bars, tires, angles must be set on the track and FOR that track only! In a different track that "perfect" setup may make car handle like crap! So find a track and try to tell us what the car's behaviour is so that we can help you make a perfect setup for that specific ltrack or parking lot. Drive the car, watch where oversteer/understeer comes, if it is stable or not at high speeds, if it absorbs bumps well and judging from that we'll make improvements.
