h&r, agx

the ride is awsome!!!!

ridess better then my stock spring on blown strut, a little firmer on 3/6
1/4 is bouncy, 2/4 feels perfect, that'll be my street setup


I got 5th gen h&r becuase I brought them local, used pretty cheap. the bottom coil in the back is a littel too tight for the agx but it sits fine, maybe like .2 inch higher then 4th gen h&r

took less then 2 hours to install with a seized bolt at autobas for $120 canadian those guys are fast!

impression: car feels a lot better on the road now, no bounce. Ask Nathan, Dev, and Gwun. They all like the soft & controlled ride

the drop is small, like a 1 inch drop... not much looks like a stock TL. I still have 4 finger in the front and 3 in the back (maybe its not settled)

handling: easier to control car in corners now, I think my alignment is off... the steering is a little weird when I'm going straight. I'll do an alignment in two weeks. maximum cornering speed: a little better then my previous fstb/rsb setup. Doing salalom/switching lanes is awsome! car sticks to the ground better








also A33 is getting his S/C done there!!http://images.cardomain.com/member_i...401_6_full.jpg

The ride was awesome! Wait a little bit for things to settle down and it should be a tad bit lower. I'm hoping that my suspension swap will go as smoothly. Congrats on the drop

edit for grammar

Yeah the ride was amazing. I was sitting in the passenger side rear and it rode better than stock. Very smooth, but stiff, and not at all harsh.

I have to get a wheel alignment in 2 weeks too. Why dont we have a wheel alignment meet?...lol
