I have a few coil over questions

 

[QUOTE=slackfaster,Dec 28 2005, 03:52 AM] and what

 

Thanks Pdc --- good info on that page --- (I love old school hot rodders too

 

C3's comment was just intended to reflect that most recreational track-goers couldn't tell the difference in handling between a corner-balanced car and one that's hundreds of pounds off.

If you're genuinely concerned and feel you'd benefit from a proper corner-balance, then "looks good" is nowehere near good enough. My car looks awful with a proper corner balance (LR is seriously jacked up), but the handling difference is worth it. Since you're in L.A., go to West End in Gardena (get appt. w/ Darrin a few weeks in advance); it's $200 well-spent for a proper alignment and balance by a guy who's done literally thousands of S2Ks.

Oh, and the car's rake (front-rear height difference) makes little difference to the corner-balance, so you can still set it however it looks best to you.

 

thanks twohoos ---

especially for the Darrin ref

 

Would the above height be the lowest possible without fearing rub on cornering?

I do a lot of Auto-X and I'm just afraid that if the car sits too low, it will rub under hard cornering?

I'm looking into getting some PSS9s soon. Can I achieve a half inch drop in ride height with these coilovers? Or would the minimum drop have to be more than that? A full inch drop would be too much for me.

 

I just redid my rear suspension

I adjusted it based on Bilstein recommendation.. and all I can get is 1 finger gap rear at MOST.. I raise it higher but it would go beyond Bilstein recommendation spec.

My rear setting is RR 215mm and RL 205mm (57 cm (22.44 inch) all around from fender lip to bottom of the wheel), I had to set it up that way to balance left and right.

I've yet to try readjusting the front though.. going to do it tomorrow.

PS: I'm on 245/40/17 with 32 psi tyre pressure.
