Shilakadaddy 0 Posted July 20, 2005 wow thats alot of dollar is the ride noticably smoother cos feeling all the bumps really pisses me off. how do you adjust the height? is it a wheel off job or do you adjust the top of the strut? Smoother?! hummmm... I think with the ride height shown above (certainly Jbob and Bally) its not gonna be smooth. Mine isn't quite as low, but its still a harsh ride. Although with the Konigsports you can adjust the damping to make the ride harder or softer. As for adjusting the height, it is a wheel off job. There are 2 disks that can be threaded up and down the coilover to adjust the height. The lower down the disks are on the coilover, the lower the ride height. So as bally was saying, he has wound his coilovers as low as they can go at the back, so moved the disks to the bottom of the thread... As seen as everyone else has posted a picture, I might as well too :lol: Don't know how low it is... I just kept adjusting until it looked right - I would however like wider wheels, and to go lower at the front... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bally 0 Posted July 20, 2005 Nice one JBOB.. look forward to seeing it in the flesh... everyone thats been in my car have been suprised.. the rides not as harsh as you'd expect... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted July 20, 2005 I dont want but I might have to raise mine up at bit as the roads round here are the worst you’ve ever seen. Some roads are more pothole than tarmac !!!! They do seem to be resurfacing some of the main roads but the (could be)fun back roads are so bad that you cant get above 10 MPH sometimes :( :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shilakadaddy 0 Posted July 21, 2005 Do you know the offset of the wheels? I think they should be ok with no arch mods up to ET30... thats what mine are (well actually ET35 with 5mm spacers, but same thing) and mine are catching a little bit on the metal.

dannyc 0 Posted July 22, 2005 I've decided to just get a set of lower springs for now cos my funds can't stretch to coilover money. does anyone know of a company that makes -80mm springs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted July 22, 2005 Venom do the 80mm ones I think they are about £60 - £70 for a set Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RS VR6 0 Posted July 22, 2005 Hope you get some shocks too...with a 80mm drop on stock shocks = blown...fast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A20 LEE 0 Posted July 22, 2005 Oettinger SLC, are you running the arch (fender) liners? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RS VR6 0 Posted July 23, 2005 Yes I am...only the outer edge where the liner meets the fender was trimmed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alplatt 0 Posted July 29, 2005 We went 40mm but recently moved to an area with loads of huge speed bumps. Now got a hole in the exhaust and keep catching the oil sump :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
