    don't go softer then what you have right now. if you think that is still then either something else is the issue or your just never going to like a stiff car.

    are you koni's set to full stiff or close to full stiff? what do your bumpstops look like? do you have standard length, or shortened front struts.

    I run a 450/650 setup and its stiff since my car is gutted and light. in a full interior e30 m3 it feels like perfect.

      Only thing I know is I'm right in the middle of full stiff/ full soft(equal turns from either setting). I'm not sure on the length of the shocks. However I think they might be too long. I bought the car and it was built like this.... However the spring perches are extremly low. I just cranked the car up a bit and before I did it I could move the spring up and down a inch before it touched the perch.

You don't go flying down some road that you know there could be gravel on the shoulders 10/10ths.
        uh huh. you are not the first person to ever claim there ain't nothing wrong with enjoying a few curves and that they won't ball up their car...




        and hopefully, for my sake, Abe won't be the last to eat their words after they r3v. Keep it up, I'm trying to put $10 that you will total it within a year.

          The difference between me and the rest of these dubber converts is that I have restraint and I have taken some drivers education. I know my limits and i'm not reckless. Shits happens however theres nothing wrong with enjoying a road for its twists and turns. I bet even you have done it. That being said stop shitting in my thread and I hope the fleas of a thousand camels infest your crotch.

              Let's hope he does. And i doubt it.

              Spring rates are fine. Raise the car and let the suspension actually work - n00b. You are riding on bumpstops: that is why it is harsh.

              Sell me your adjusters when you wreck it.

                      Boo fricken who. That was when the car was under tired on falken 512s. 512s merely suck. Its now on a set of 452 and its tail happy antics are now settled.


                      Dude your a moron. . Honestly if you had posted up the "maybe your shocks are blown or your running on your bump stops" fine. But your a waste a space and a idiot.

                        Further more I don't go blasting down canyons in the rain Einstein. Isn't it time that you go do something useful?
