Hey guys wats up.....well i recently got married and you know its time for a family ride now so i was orginally going to part out the TL and sell it....but i am gonna wait...till it dies then get the new audi A6 the supercharged one

my question is i want to put back on my stock suspension to get a smooth ride...my teins are a no finger gap all the way around....if i where to rasie my teins up to a 2 finger gap or even 3 finger gap how would the ride quality feel?

will it be smoother and a little more firm? i know i will get less camber wear

i was wondering if anyone had done this before.


thankssssss

 

TEIN Basics aren't that firm. Raise it up to the min drop and the ride quality will improve. It will still be dropped about 2" F and 1.6" R.

 

by raising up to minimum height does that mean turn the dails on the coil overs to the top?

 

They may move this over into the Tire and suspension thread

 

Yep. Hope you still have your spanner wrenches.

 

congrats on the marriage

sucks to see you about to part out, car looked great at the RJ meet in august

 

Hey if you ever do part out your car i got dibs on the lip kit LOL!

 

I didn't think all the way at the top was Teins reccomendation. That would set you up WAY high


edit- if you decide to part it, dibbs on the blower. PM me if that happens.

 

yeah mannn its gonna hurt me a lot.... I love this car sooo much and did a lot of work to it but at least i can say i was satisfied and happy with all the work that was done...i have no regrets or look backs on anything.....i am still gonna keep it...but the part out day will be coming lol

yeah i have all the tools everyone on AZ will know when the part out begins and i have a lottttttt of stuff inlcuding a custom back deck of speakers that will fit in any TL

the next car i get has to be as fast as or faster than this one

 

Chimes in ---Married With Children--- song haha.
Congrats man. If you've been riding around with a no finger gap, that's already not in Tein's recommendation. Might as well go up. After riding with a no finger gap, you'll notice the difference. I went from no finger gap to 3/4 of the way up when I had my accident (hooray for Tein!) and it was a really nice ride IMO. Heck, if I got married or had children, I'd raise I'd probably raise it up too. Stock is just ridiculously high. Play around with it. THat's what it's for. It's easy to adjust too.

 

thanks man....this weekend or next i am going to play around with the ride height and see whats best

 

How is the TL not a family ride?

 

not a family ride when you have the Charger in it always tempted to step on the pedal....and hear the wineeeee lol

 

Oh, gotcha. But, two things. One, you could always take the charger off and make some money back, and two, a supercharged A6 isn't going to take away your temptation! But an A6 would definitely be a nice step up from our TL.

 

haha.. if the kids cry.. jus step on it.. won't hear nothing but the other cry... HAHA

 

i know i know....i had some videos of my tl racing its in some previous threads.....if the A6 not gonna cut it then i got to move up to a V8

 

lol that's what me and my friends said.....

 

i must say the TL with the charger is a diffrent car....when u line up in second gear to race cars its like they are not even moving...and mine is not even tuned yet...i just adjusted the fuel pressure.

the charger will not hurt me the most to sell since i got it at a steal...the thing that will hurt me the most is my ron jon wheels and my BBk those are the 2 things that i love most about this car......Ron if u see this thread these are by far the best and hotest looking wheels i ever owned....they are strong and can with stand those NYC pot holes

the BBK well just look at it how it looks...when i stop at a red light and i look over everyone eyes are always looking down and not inside the car lol
