Yeah, so i lowered my ride yesterday, and i was just wondering, how long does it take comptech springs to settle?

Does anyone noticed even after 6 months, they get a bit lower?

BTW, my comptechs are TWO months used, does that mean their already settled?

As soon as they settle, and the rear too (H&R) I'm gonna get an alignment and put my rims on...

its just, i kinda wanted the front a bit lower than it is...

heres some pics, enjoy.

 

i think it looks great

the front end is

even if they don't settle anymore, it still looks fantastic

BTW, is that u next to that truck??? protecting yer baby from getting dinged by his door??? reminds me of the VW shopping cart commercial

u look like a tourist with that hat!!! bahahah

 

Amir,

Is that pic in the alleyway behind Optional?

Ride looks good...you are no longer a 4x4 owner

 

yeah thats where it is

that guys is fast!

he charged me 200 canadian for install thats like 130 u.s.

and 50 bucks ( 34 u.s.) for alignment

 

that looks pretty good. i dont think id be able to wait, id just put the rims on now!

and yes, thats amir in the hat

 

yeah i dont wanna wait either, i was gonna wait 2 weeks so springs settle so the alignment doesnt scratch my rims...but i brought it down to 1 week, and decided to just drive a lot, to compensate.

 

I take it that guy also did Steve's car?

 

I was told that GOOD springs will never "settle".

 

yeah, that guy that works there is funny, nice guy, and pretty good prices he gave steve, and I

 

your springs aren't going to settle. if you wanna go lower get koni's and use the lower perch in the front. that will drop you another 3/4 ". then it will be perfect. grille looks good.

 

I doubt they'll settle anymore if they were used for 2 months. My comptechs did their settling in the first two months - mostly the rear, but the front a bit.

 

Depends....


I've had factory springs settle, aftermarket springs settle (badly), and got some springs that had the same feel, lack of noise, and same ride height 8-years later (I had the car for a very, very long time )...

 

yo amir nice ride.......

i wanna see u and steve go at it..now thats a race i wanan watch!

but i love your red brakes.."pimpin"

keep it up!

 

steve could easily take me.
his car is about true performance..with those tires, headers, coilovers, exhuast, etc..

i hardly speed, just like to know the power is there..

i'm going for more Bling.. na mean?

next i'm gonna get an exhuast like steves, and i think i'm done spending money on the car..i wanna spend money on my place, and maybe some clothes

 

so, how's the ride difference and comfort, besides the look, is it worth it?
