i would like to buy koni yellows and some drop springs for my s2000, but at the same time i talked to my friend and he told me that when rear wheel drives are dropped toe becomes an issue. so my question is 2 parts: what springs do you recommend with the koni yellows (im looking for 1 inch max) and how do i go about fixing the toe problem, as i understand that camber/caster can be adjusted rather easily.

 

anyone?

 

If you only lower the car 1" the stock toe adjuster will have enough travel to reset the toe.

I don't have a spring reccomendation, my car is stock suspended.

 

thanks

 

for springs go with a reputable company like Eibach or H&R's

 

kg/mm supersport springs

 

how much of a drop should i aim for? anyone have links? or should i just hold off for tein full coilovers?

 

I've been very satisfied with the Eibach Pro springs. They drop the car 1", which puts the front strakes 3.1" from the ground. On the roads in this area you couldn't stand it any lower.

Go with the UK alignment specs. Achieving correct alignment after the drop should be no problem, IF the alignment man knows his stuff. Some alignment guru's are unable to get the camber set right but that's the mechanic, not the car. If you run into that problem try a different alignment shop.

 

Toe isn't a problem, I'm on Espelier, mind you. The problem is camber. I can barly get UK alignment spec after 1.3" drop, but went from stock toe setting to UK one just fine.

One more thing from my observation, though, and maybe the road I drive everyday but, my alignment screw up far quicker than when I was on stock set up, seems like you need to re-align every 3-4 month, and I'm not kidding!

 

damn, i hope thats not true
