cs40racing Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 alex is right you cannot loose the bottom piece...and I agree the phase 1 droplink appears to be too short but I also believe elpresspl has a phase 1 wagon???Man the more I think about this the more a pain in the @$$ it sounds like to set up properly... you almost need to corner weigh the car to properly set up the suspension...

tomedkaz1568908563 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 get ready for a lot of adjustments coz these things settle pretty unevently, but eventually sit the same. A few days after you put them on you'll notice that all your sides are diffrent heights...and you're right I wont remove the black piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerBeGurGya Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Hehe I told you that my base measurements will come handy. On the rear you can start out with 3/4" lower and harden the springs up by the same then check.That should be close.To adjust the rear really easy and takes like 10 min on both sides. Wanna be a pioneer and put all four to the lowest possible?Just for a photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cs40racing Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 My only concern is the fronts, I don't like the design they used, quite frankly it's probably the worst most overdesigned design they could have done... We'll see what happens saturday, I do like my new front bumper... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Lane Man Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 IDK about you guys but I adjusted the damper on the top all the way on the front and couldn't feel a difference. But that can be only me. About the droplinks, I can take a picture of PH1 short droplink in comparison to PH2 long droplink. I swapped them out when I did my K-Sport install. I'm not low as you guys (yet) but I think it's a pretty good product. Just like Carlos said, you have to keep them MOFO's clean. I'm gonna readjust my K-Sports in the spring time, when I put the 17's back on with some new rubber. Right now I'm riding dirty on 15's and Bridgestone Blizzaks REVO1 winter tires. And it still handles great.So if you guys want the picture, just let me know, and I'll snap a quick pic.Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonus Lane Man Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 OK, so here are the pics.Don't mind that the droplink is damaged... That's what you get when you let somebody else drive the car.And this is what happened to the control arm after my friend took it for a spin...Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomedkaz1568908563 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Art, Off topic: the wheel that got hit (the broken control arm side) is most likely bent and warped and stuff...I would not put it on anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
