Coil overs suck
Coil overs suck
Ok well i have the coil overs put on and i must say it makd the car look more aggresive, however the ride quality SUCKS. you feel every bump in the damn road. is there something i can do to cusion it more. I have 215/35/19 tires will going up tp a 215/40/19 help? Spme one Please help.
yeah you can give them to me.. lol j/k you should be able to adjust the stiffness of em with the tool that they come with.. but really thats the point of the coil overs.. they are suppose to make it more stiff to handle better and get more response out of your car..
I have the K sport coil overs. The handaling is crazy.it feels so goodwhen im hitting a sharm turn and the body role is almosy non existant. So you guys think i should get thicker tires. Plus im sure living in New York doesnt help the situation either
the reason your coilovers suck is because you bought them for appearance reasons, hence why you posted this in the appearance section in the site. you get what you pay for. having 19's doesn't help either.
moved to the suspension section.

coilovers are made to give you a stiff ride. ride height in my opinion is just a plus. if you did not want a stiff ride you should of just gotten springs. if you start messing with it and making it softer it will iliminate the purpose of the coilovers thuse making them useless for performance
well ill see what im going to do. I might go down to a 18" rim. If not then maybe ill trade them for an exedy hyper clutch
if i go up in tire size what size should i go and will that even make the ride my comfy?
does any 1 know how 2 adjust these coil overs?

Which Ksport Coilover kit did you get?
Ksport Kontrol Pro
Ksport Version RR Damper
Ksport Rally Spec AR Damper
Ksport GT Pro Damper
Some of the Ksport coilovers are designed for use on the track only

I have the ksport kontrol pro and the ride is fine until you hit a really sharp bump in the road. The handling is exceptional and causes you to push the car harder into turns more than usual. As far as softening, the hex-style tools go into the center of the front coilovers. Turn them toward the "S" as much as possible and then turn in the opposite direction 2 or three turns. This is only if they aren't already on the softest setting. I should be going up to brooklyn next month so I will share in your problems soon enough.

I love it when people want a fast car, but when they get all the vibes(mounts) and ride quality(stiff suspension) they bitch.
You want the best ride keep it stock...if you know how to left foot brake you can make this car do a lot of things.
You want the drop shoulda just went with springs and replaced the struts when they went bad...

The idea is to drag to make the front end bite more and the ass end to rotate...not much braking required...the stock suspension is actually pretty kick ass and responds well to the little things
the pedal does not move at all and if i am on a hill will drift while i am pushing with my left foot...i really dont know what it is i think its some saftey thing so you dont hit it while pushing the clutch or something
