I was just wondering how long does it take for the springs and everything to settle? I am installing my new setup of springs and struts in about a week and i heard it sits a lil high and settles after a lil while. How much will it settle?
Is the ride diff during that period? just let me kno thanks
by the way i went with sprints

 

took my progress springs about 2 weeks-month...its not a huge notable drop after it settles.. <1"

 

My Sprints took about a week to settle. After it settled it went down another half inch or so. Is the ride stiff during this period? Yeah, the ride is stiff all the time with sprints.

 

well i meant is the ride really different from when the first day i put em on or does it change for the better or worse. I was just wondering so i just dont jump to conclusions the first time i drive it if it will just change after a week-month

 

it took about 2 weeks for my S-techs to settle (about .5"), and the ride quality was a little better after it settled...

 

hey lunchbox do u have any more pics of ya car lowered -post em please thanks

 

There isn't too much noticeable difference from 'just' installing till the time it's settled. I don't think you'll notice a difference at all since you'll really focus on the difference from your stocks.

 

My H&Rs took a week but the ride didn't really change.

i am not coming from stock i have these springs i bought from a friend i thynk they are eibachs but they dont drop it as much as i want and they are old when i got them from him and im on stock struts now -cant wait to see the diff from that to brand new shyt and a nice low sprint drop

 

Well for some reason I get the red X when I post my pics. Here is the like to my cardomain page.

How much spring to cut inorder to lower 1 inch in the front?

How much spring to cut inorder to lower 1 inch in the back?

The front is definitely heavier than the back. I don't want to cut more than I should. I have GR2 with stock spring. I'm ready for the winter with my 4x4.

 

very nice lunchbox -how much of a gap did u end up with the sprints? finger gap?

 

Don't cut at all...It's not a honda.

Get lowering springs.

 

yea me H&R's took about 2 weeks, and i did notice the look of the car. it dropped more, but still is not dropped enough

 

do youll think sprints will drop it enough? its pretty much the lowest lowering spring isnt it? and i like the rake look that comes with them cus i have a big system in the trunk and it should all even out hopefully lol

 

about 2 weeks for my sprints

 

about 2 and a half.

 

get the s techs if you want the lowest with a big rake....

 

i didnt really notice much of a drop after "settling". i do know that with my eibach pro kit, that the rear was a little higher up, but once i put my subs and box in the back, that lowered it a little, and now it sits perfect!
