Just when I think the forum could be fun or interesting again...

Guess I need a new place to hang out. Wonder if the LSD forum has things that make more sense?

I do apologize for my composure from the pressure of a bumpy ride post, but the point of this thread is for tips and tricks to have a more enjoyable comfortable experience on the daily for this sports car!

I think I realized I was digging deeper and throwing it before your post but that definitely does help clear things up thank you.

Oh, anytime, we all need that from time to time ......

Now that you translated your post, I will comment.

To make the FR-S ride smoother, I suggest that one leave the suspension alone. I suspect (no first hand knowledge) that when the suspension is "lowered", that the ride quality (smoothness) diminishes.

I have found out that on long bumpy roads, with a light car, that the roughness can be reduced by reducing the air pressure in the tires.

And, of course there is always the tactic of ...... just slowing down .....

Not much will exceed the thrill of wash-boarding across a gravel road, with no guardrails, on a 14,000 foot high mountain road .........

Bumpy road with the left side being very bumpy making drivers feel like their tire is flat and not the odd long road.

Maybe the solution is not the daily sports car it is the careless or debt government besides I would not know the solution for a government owned bumpy road but all I know is the road in Los Angeles lately has been really bad.

The best way to smooth out your ride in a FRS is trade it in for an Oldsmobile. Now hike up your skirt and find a good, sensible used grannymobile.

My gut instinct after reading to this point was to recommend detox. After further thought I still think it is the most viable solution.
