Thread: Another K-sport thread....

;].

If we trade it will be that suspension setup. What is the drop on those springs? If you have a nice catback maybe...

As long as your k sports arnt blown.. I'll include the suspension too. I'm not sure on the drop.. There pretty low. I just know the guy told me progress coils

I am 99% sure they aren't blown. The car was really low like you saw but the lower part needs to be raised quite a bit so I'm not sure it was even using the struts. Once I get it set up properly I'll know better because I would not do the trade unless I had it ready to go for you properly. If you have a nice catback....

i don't have a cat back, aha unless you want the one that was on my car lol! its smaller than 2.5" fo sure.

So I got the front up but even after measuring 5 times the drop was uneven. So I pulled one side up and the other side down and even though the measurements are off its all even up front. Wheel is centered and much less pull.

I'm just going to take more of the preload off the springs. It doesn't need 3 turns I only did 2 and I think it makes it bouncy.

The rears were a pain. They were seized and would not spin so I just took the preload off the springs and sprayed them w/ PB and removed the sway bar. The one really nice trick piece of this kit; the heim joints for the rear sway bar.

When I lowered it back down the pass side lower mount started chowdering the inside of the rear tire.... sigh I just took it down the block to buy a beer.

All this stuff I am doing one change at a time and its a lot of up and down.... and then down the block along the same course. Luckily I have a good little neighborhood for test drives with a few familiar twists.

This suspension is a huge pita to set up properly. Luckily once I'm done;

Highly recommended.

omg what a pain.

I know dude it bores me to tears just to read my posts. But there's not a lot of info on what it takes to actually set these things up. If I don't set them up properly i.e. not dumped to the weeds and set on fully random then I cannot sell or trade them in good conscience. The one saving grace is that they are not blown or leaking.

K-sport website says these are 440 front and 250 rear. WTF!

I measured everything when I set mine up ....it took a while ..but it ride pretty good and handles fairly decently , But I want to do a set of progress or GC CSKs ( possibly Advanced designs ) that is what I would like to do ...

i really dont know why it has been so difficult installing/using ksports kontrol pro. when i got mine i first used the most lower perch to adjust height and it was slamming.

then re-read the instructions and used the perch at the lower end of the spring to adjust and its fine

rides much better than the tein ha i had (teins were old though)

car: n15 lucino. same suspension as the b14






peace
