So I'll set them to full stiff, go for a few rides, and adjust accordingly. Thursday is going to be like effing Christmas. Wheels, tires, and the KWs are expected to be here then!

if you dont mind, i'd like to take a ride in your car to see how it feels.

the car already as that "lowered" feel to it so ive been contemplating on weather or not i want to lower it.

clevrname · 10-31-2012, 12:28 PM

No problem.

I got these based on reading that you don't have to sacrifice your DD ride quality. I only wanted a little lower, about an inch. I have done springs in the past and they all settle abnormally low, therefore, decided I was going coils this time. My pro kit on my SI was supposed to be a 1in drop and it settled to about 2.25, so I didn't want to deal with that again.

sweet

i come from the lowering truck world (this is my first car) and coilovers are the way to go.

i love the way rides factory. it feels likes its already lowered (which i prefer) so im a little apprehensive about lowering it.

clevrname · 10-31-2012, 12:51 PM

Yeah, I like the ride now, but with the wheels, it needs a little bit more low. It will probably take me a few days to get them dialed in like I will want.

draggin_az · 10-31-2012, 12:54 PM

right on. i cant wait to see it. ive always said these cars need more then an inch of lowering.

I would bring the BRZ out, but it won't be here for another week. Maybe next time

We lost two FRS' in the hurricane. They were at the port in new york and we found out today they were totaled. RIP Hot Lava AT and Whiteout MT.
