appears to be completely un-loaded

 

hmm and why would it be unloaded?

 

lol that is jacked up...thats not sitting on the ground. you can tell when the car is on the ground the middle gets compressed together.

 

mods... delete this thread or lock it... people are quite ignorant on this thread... its a shame people cant open their eyes and realize that they are wrong for once... INTERNET EGO...

 

We've got us some regular Sherlock Holmes in here.

 

we've got some intelligent ones on this thread

 

why would you take a picture with the car jacked up? it defeats the purpose of what he was trying to prove.

 

I wasn't planning on ever taking a picture, but his new exhaust came in so we decided to wrestle it on this evening. We got the car up before we thought about taking the picture, so we said **** it, and took a picture. I looked at the spring on the ground, there is no "bind", but I know you won't just take my word for it. I probably wont see his car again until next week, so no more pictures will be uploaded until then.

 

you're right, i won't take your word for it

 

its probably because your a virgin

 

LIKE A VIIIIIRRGINNNNNNN.

Heres another picture. Now suck on that Trebek.

 

well, their cobalt coilovers are epic fail...


aaand you prove my point. You put any kind of load on those springs and 70% of those coils will touch in less than 2" of suspension travel = choppy ride = shitty handling.

 

Looks screwed all the way down. No way thats how it sits normal.

 

well, sure looks like that's the way it sits to me.

 

Trust me broski, that is weight on those springs. That trunk isn't empty, it's actually pretty damn full.

I know what you mean, previous owner of my car left Tenzo R springs on it, and I put some weight in that car, and found out real quick what happens.

 

umm that is a coil over... and tein has Never used black springs period

 

simple answer is, they coil bind. whether or not you realize it, they do. I'm sure the drop is nice, but i doubt the handling is there.

 

yeah i have about 275 of audio in the trunk sooo yeah suck dick... it rides amazing

 

lol, i said Coilover, and yes, it is from Tein.

Suck dick? that's swell.

 

I'm going to bed. 6am alarm clock is coming ******* fast. FML

****, one more question.

Compare the spring rates of the springs....see the differences, I'm curious. I found the Tein's easy enough, why's Pedders rates not advertised?

 

well, what are the tein rates?

And the Pedders are progressive, as i'm sure the Teins are. It isn't so cut and dry as a single rate.

Static spring height, dead coils etc. all play into the equation.

 

2 seconds of searching

Spring Rate Front: 3.1 kg/mm = 174 lb/in
Spring Rate Rear: 2.8 kg/mm = 157 lb/in

 

wow, those are ridiculously soft...

 

was talking bout the rears....

come on will!

 

i know you were Steve!
