I just switch from my stock to Prokits (1.4 Drop) and KYB Gr-2.

It rides nice and smooth after a alignment, but i heard a little drum like sound in the rear when i go over some bumps. Is this normal?

Thanks..

 

yeah...once u lower ur car you start hearing all kind of shit. the lower u go the more noise.

 

Does coilover like d2's have the same effect lowered?

 

hi, my name is buzz and im on a prokit i was on the prokit and happy for a couple weeks before i realized what it was doing to me and my cl. i still am on the prokit but am on the road to recovering.(soon to have skunk 2 coilovers )
as a prokit abuser myself i do have that nasty clap/thump on both sides in the rear.

i rembember theres a some kind of sleeve for the spring you can get to eliminate that noise.

 

are you a 2.x or a 3.0?

 

yes its been experienced w/ a lot of the prokit users, search for the diy on those spring covers, supposedly it quiets the back a bit.

 

FOR THE LAZY:

<----lazy

 

I use to get the clunk with my prokit but after driving for a while i no longer hear clunk.

 

how long did it take to go away?

 

i dunno bout spring/shock combos but the tanabe coils i have, they dont make anytype of sound...

 

i used to get a weird clunk once in a long while but not anymore

 

I had a clunk a few months after I did my Pro-Kit/KYB's

the clunk stayed until I traded it in

 

Man you doing coilover just for the back or all around?

 

3.0

 

Man its a cheap sound and feeling when i hit a little bump.

I might just do some coilovers for the rear. =(

Should this mess with my handling?

 

ya my clunk has been here the whole year ive had it

 

you learn to live with the noises

 

ya just turn the music up louder

 

all around. i'd do front/rear. i wouldn't leave springs in front and coils in rear.

 

Put some bass in and drown it out with rattles :gheylaugh:
