Hey guys I recently purchased these and I have a couple questions just because they are used but pretty much brand freakin new. First of all I want to thank James for the incredible deal he gave me on these! It couldnt have worked out much better. I wasnt going to buy them until he told me where he lived. It just happened to be exactly where my girlfriends Mid Point hotel was on her way back from Florida. So there's my free shipping lol.

ANYWAYS! Are these the Gen1 or Gen2s that do not go as low? Second! Where should I set these bad boys to start of with... to the highest height? Last question is... I am waiting till Thursday when I get paid to order all my goodies from Powell before I put them on (CABS Front and Rear Rotated Trans mounts) I was told the tranny mounts are a must because of axle bind.. Correct? Cannot wait to install these I am honestly so damn happy with the way my car is going to look this summer!!

 

Well just now waiting on a invoice from Gloria at Powell! It is midnight. Im suprised I even got to chat with Mr. Powell this late haha. Cant wait to order my mounts and install these..

STILL would like to know if these are the v1 or v2s and where I should set them for a start point before I put them on my car. No help for cobe. Oh well looks like it will be a night of tweaking coils and drinking. Cannot wait. Also have some NT01s for the front !!

 

Wish I was doing that instead of pulling an all nighter tonight for my 2 exams tomorrow.

 

Well im not doing it until I get my mounts lol! Im super excited tho! I have an exam Thursday. . Good luck man!

 

not sure what gen mine are but only thing i see different is that mine had more of the gold color on them . second as far as height thats all up to you , i would ask my self how nice your roads are where you live to be super low . also after you get your height down you need to figure out how stiff or how soft you want the ride quality to be , just remember nothing rides like stock maybe powell springs and koni yellows put together .

 

v1's i believe, v2's i thought had a gold top hat

 

Yeah I was looking and was thinking the got top was the v2s and is setting the stiffness done by the clickers?

 

I just installed Ksports in my HHR...somewhat different animal but same suspension setup. It's all going to come down to how low you want to go...you'll probably install and remove at least half a dozen time before you get it to the setting you want...same goes for the damper. I've got my set to the lowest in the rear and the damper is set about 4 or 5 clicks from the softest setting...I've got to redo my rear damper this weekend. The front I could go lower but I don't want to run into any axle binding issues and plus I don't want to have any rake...right now I'm sitting even on all four corners. Like I said...you're going to to have to take a day and just play around with it.

 

NT01's for road use? you sure you wanna go that route? i think they will wear very quickly. if you have more power than i guess you will need them. goodluck with the ride height!

 

Spin them all the way down.

 

picked up a set last week. they didnt come with any locking rings or the spanner wrench. they are currently set all the way down. we will see how it turns out friday. just doing a google search it looks like lnf's barely make it to the wheel at full drop

 

You can use my spanners if you want. Idk if theyll fit the stances but we can try.

 

let ya know. going to try full drop and see how it is. you going to the msu car show?

 

Yea I need ultimate traction lol. I only summer drive the car. Thanks for the luck!

Where did you get them from? One of the main points of this thread was to see if I have the v1 or v2 stances. The v2 stances dont go as low ! My car wont be ready till mid may. Then ill be around woodward

 

nt01's for a summer DD seem overkill. Why not just NT05 or nitto 555's. You dont have THAT much torque to need those.

 

Okay if your saying I wont need them and its over kill then I believe you! I wont spend the extra money on them. I just haaaaate breaking loose in second..

 

i picked mine up locally for $300. guy is suppose to bring all the parts with them. they are pretty clean and low miles

 

NT05, they're a great value.

 

So do I skip the car payments until next week and order my parts from Powell?? Lol the struggles. Im pretty sure I can't do that because I only have a 10 day grace period

 

Never, ever skip bills to buy goodies.

That is a quick way to lose your ****.

 

always bills first. i make sure my bills are paid before i dish out on more goodies

 

Welcome Cobe. Hope they work out for you
