This is test version, and test version spring is Black color.
And ARK official trademark color is Red Orange.
ls1fbody 01-28-2009, 01:15 AM try throwing this up in the south pacific regional area, those guys are pretty active, and i know for a fact that some of them need springs.
Same as Area, any chance you will share the spring rates?
CleanCut 01-28-2009, 01:19 AM how much of a drop... might be interested
ARKracing 01-28-2009, 01:21 AM how much of a drop... might be interested

red_line_cobalt 01-28-2009, 11:44 AM Lowers front by 1" ( Cobalt ) - 2 " ( Cobalt SS) and rear by 1.3" ( CobaltSS ) - 2.5"
he said the SS is lower right here.... but that does ot make any sense to me at all.... inless i am still miss reading, but i dont think i am.
and when asked about it he said that the SS was lower
ARKracing 01-28-2009, 02:13 PM OK.. just clear about the post, we have 2 different lowering spring for test... So, I just put together written about cobalt SS and regular Cobalt.

steddy2112 02-25-2009, 02:34 PM So my question is this:
It lowers the lower cars MORE, than the base model.
Are the rates different on the two DIFFERENT sets?

ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:18 AM Eric can has lower?
i know finally lol
ls1fbody 02-26-2009, 05:21 AM seriously man, i can't believe you haven't gotten springs or something yet, especially after all the other stuff.
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:27 AM it wasnt that important to me... i wasnt even gonna do it until this came up
ls1fbody 02-26-2009, 05:31 AM you'll love the difference man, it's drastic. the car not only looks a million times better, it drives better, and rides better as well.
Well, as long as the spring rates are correct.
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:34 AM yeah thats the only bad part... since these are a prototype thing i am a lil sketchy... but oh well!!! lol
ls1fbody 02-26-2009, 05:36 AM keep us posted man.
how are those brakes treating you?
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:38 AM good... a lil loud but they stop on a dime... i have finally realized that any mods done to a car u will have some sort of problem with u know... they just are still a lil loud but they are worth it
ls1fbody 02-26-2009, 05:39 AM all performance brakes are loud, and yeah, there's a tradeoff big time.
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:48 AM yeah but i am happy
ls1fbody 02-26-2009, 05:52 AM and thats whats important!!
Rissa 02-26-2009, 01:32 PM That's so mean I've been wanting springs really really really bad for months now and now something I can afford comes up and someone who doesn't even really care is gonna do it...awesome.
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:21 PM go rissa they cant do it on my car...
HB_SS/TC 02-26-2009, 05:22 PM Why not?
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:22 PM my big brake kit wont allow them to lower the front
Rissa 02-26-2009, 05:25 PM Well I'll hit them up then.
WHITE G5 02-26-2009, 05:25 PM my big brake kit wont allow them to lower the front
wow that sucks, so you ll never be able to lower your car?
ikeryder13 02-26-2009, 05:27 PM no i can... i really dont need that big of a drop so i will find a set of springs that will do a decent drop or just wait and get coilovers
ARKracing 02-26-2009, 08:31 PM SPOT OPEN AGAIN !! Only takes 4hrs to install ! just leave us in the morning, take some movie @ Montclair mall and comeback !! lol

caddiondubs 02-27-2009, 10:09 PM that looks sick.
1badBlueberrySC 02-27-2009, 10:10 PM So what does the ride compare too??? Eibach sportlines good or shitty like Tenzo's...
WhiteSSBalt 02-27-2009, 10:12 PM Typically a spring will lower a base an inch over an SS.......
SSdan 02-27-2009, 10:15 PM Fronts need more lowering but the rears look great.
ARKracing 02-28-2009, 01:02 AM Thank you for the Ryan... We finally able to do it.
The ride feels good, no noise, and feels really good.
The product make a comparative study with Eibach and H&R.
Omnigear 02-28-2009, 02:47 AM drove my dirty car home, didnt feel any additional vibrations to complain about.
yes its my dirty car.
ARKracing 02-28-2009, 06:14 PM Fronts need more lowering but the rears look great.
Well... it was right after installation... it will be better once they set.
Thanks
drove my dirty car home, didnt feel any additional vibrations to complain about.

ARKracing 06-19-2009, 09:28 PM Finally landing our GT-F lowering spring next week !! Pre-order now guys
$ 179.00 + 29.00S/H US Continental !!
reign1 06-24-2009, 01:17 PM Front spring rate: 115Lbs/Inch
Progress rate: 200Lbs/Inch - Compress rate
Rear: 55Lbs/Inch
Progress Rate: 100Lbs/ inch 0 Compress rate.
so how does this transfer to stiffness/softness and performance?
ls1fbody 06-24-2009, 09:23 PM no i can... i really dont need that big of a drop so i will find a set of springs that will do a decent drop or just wait and get coilovers
why eric? that doesn't make sense, i've never heard of brakes affecting lowering the car.
