Moto,

my name is Andy.. Colin introduced me to ya at one of the meets in Irvine. I am highly interested in your coilover set up. I was wondering when would be the next time you would be at the meet and if you dont mind giving me a ride? I was searching around and did a lot of ride-alongs, and your set up is exactly the spring rate that I want to run. hope to talk to you soon.

Andy

Is it necessary to purchase an aftermarket suspension component for the rear suspension such as camber bolts/LCA for correct OEM like alignment after installing the coilovers in the Moto Spec? @Moto-P

It depends on the preferences. For motorsports use, the added camber in the process of lowering the car, to about 20mm~35mm below stock is a good thing that allows better response in steering turn-in, and less abusive sidewall wear. It is recommended that you do get an alignment though, after install and after each impact or over the course of annual ownership, like any other suspension upgrade/modifications. Specific sports setup will take specific needs but that's usually not at all the same alignment needs and spec as OEM.

I lowered my car with the RSR Super Down springs. Rear dropped a little more than an inch. I don't race (although I intend to autocross) so my car is 99.9% street. I really prefer to have the LCA and Camber Bolts installed to correct some of that camber. Without the adjustments, there was a little too much camber for my relatively conservative tastes, and that's just for looks.

When my stock dampeners go though, I plan on getting the RSR iSport Coilovers. Thanks Moto!
