He might not see you with all this black! LOL

 

Le sigh,sadly the meet was a bummer..

 

Anyone still plan to go to Import Reactor in a few weeks?

 

why was the meet a bummer?

 

Lol i didnt see anyone ladt night as parking was terrible and it took forever to get out lol...i left a bit earlier back to the omni but i might do a little track 21 later

 

Im at the track right now not quite sure jow long im gonna stay....but prob till around 4 or 5 is my guess

 

lol havent touched my other camera since the meet and just found these in there LOL

 

Lol

 

Alright folks.. i need a lil input lol. Im stuck and confused.



Whoever was at justin's that day we installed coilovers remembers how we adjusted them to go lower right?

Loosen perch c and then use the key to twist b all the way till perch c hits the bottom again, THEN we tighten it.

BUT TODAY me and a couple buddys said fuck it and went to lower my car some more.

One thing was different though.. they were telling me the way i was trying to lower it was wrong. *The way we did it at justins* so they loosened perch A and B but kept C tight. They lowered perch B down and then lowered perch C and tightened both of them.

So which way is right? What we did today did lower the car but the way we did it at justin's lowered the car also LOL. SO WHICH WAY IS RIGHT? I am a confused ass nga right now..

 

Whatever you do, do not mess with A or B. Once you have C loose, you should be able to twist the whole body.

 

Sorry I've been MIA guys.

Simon, get that hatch Let me know if you want help looking at it and/or working on it. I'm an EF guru.

Dennis, the blue would look sweet

 

Jon I'd love to take if off him but im pretty sure id have no where to put it lol and dont even know if he'll sell it to me :\
and im trying getting parents to trade the Jeep in for a ZDX now since w/e we're trading it in for will be mine in a few years lol

 

A/B that is for preload. I wouldnt mess with that unless you knew what you were doing. C is the only one you should mess with for height adjustement. A/B will stiffen or loosen tension on the spring. I usually back it out until no preload and go from there...add as needed pretty much.

 

lol

 

 

Hmm.. well A and B was moved for sure lmao.. it was lowered way down. Ride feels the same though, what should i do? Put it back to how it was?

 

LMAO this nigga paul

 

Tony how far would way down be? lol

 

Im ghetto but it works...I use a tape measure to measure out all the springs and set the preload with that. Then I adjust the height afterwards with collar C. All I can say is go measure from top to bottom of spring and see what they are at. Try to get them as close as you can then adjuste your height accordingly by measuring between B and C.

If your ride is too soft you can attempt by adjusting the dampening first...if it is too soft then i would tighten collar A half to a full turn and test. If its the other way around do the opposite and then obviously readjuste the height accordingly. I do not know your spring rates on your setup so I cannot give you a direct answer on how much to turn.

I have my preload turned up a bit in the rear along with a stiffer dampening setting so my car rotates in corners. The soft has a little bit of preload along with softer dampening. It seems to work pretty well driving around but I have to go to a road course to see if its correct.

 

Yea ima go back and adjust everything soon. My ride is bouncy AF now.. i guess messing with collar a and b did mess things up.

I have about 2.25 inches of play left.

I was gonna do this. Watch from 2:45 on

 

yall be careful today. no flooded cars.

 

thanks joel.
its ugly out

 

Tony you should have asked me. Hahahah but man it's been along time since I've been on this page!!!! but I got a 3G tl navigation unit for sale if anyone is in the market for the oem unit lmk. I have it posted in the BM

 

Re adjusted the coils today, rides way better.

Sacrificed some paint to take these pics LOL

 

dang hella low, no scrapes from exhaust?

 

First 2 pics dont really count lol, i just went straight down a friends driveway so of course itll scrape. But im pretty close to the ground.

 

ahh gotcha. looks good though!

 

Yea im pretty satisfied with it for now.. just need to get a few things.

aren't you trying to get rid of your car by the end of this year too??

 

Im thinking about it but im just trying to enjoy what i have while i still can.

 

lol derp, having fun with it while you still can is never a bad idea

 

looking good tony, i feel sorry for you when you get to the campus with all those new speed bumps put in. Took me a while to get it over without scraping, people keep honking but i ran out fucks to give >

 

so i was thinking of selling my car to get an E55 AMG...found one with only 15,000 miles...putting 560whp with a carlsson upgrade from the dealership...still debating but idk if i shud get rid of the G or not since it has a new motor...and the car is just about to be paid off in a couple of months..it would be nice to have another car but i'd rather have an NSX then the E55...

anyone see this vid yet? this is such baller..they owner even went to Japan to chill with the guy who helped him do his build...so sick
