29802, info on my setup Posted by ChloRure, Sep-27-06 05:02 PM
Hi,
2 years ago, I dropped my car with H&R Sport Kit and KYB AGX.(not installed by me) If im correct its 1.7" front and 1.4" rear. Im using some ebay ingalls camber kit for front and rear (rear its really just washer and bolts...). The problem is that last year, i change a balljoint, 1 tie rod ext and another one int. Since I have the suspension installed ive always find it very hard, if I hit a little hole it knock... big hole its just not fun at all. The guy from a garage said to me that I need to pay over 10 000$ for someting that will be ok... I doubt all of us will pay that amount of money... is anyone are using the same setup ? is it a bad combo ?

im getting a feeling it might be something having to do with the rubber stoppers... pfffft for $10,000 just get a new complete suspension...that comes with a low mileage GSX :7

yeah... 10 000$ for a street car drop its just ridiculus to me... i dont want a porshe suspension but something fun to drive. Did you install some special balljoint or tierod when you drop your cars ??? or some moog is ok ?

If I remember well, the guy never remove or cut anything from the stock spring or shock... just put the new one on the car

I was thinking of switching coil to something like 1" drop instead of 1.7 I feel ALL little crack in the road, if just a little hole hit at 30mph I feel it pretty hard.

I will store the car for winter and on next spring ill check for my problem. I was thinking to switch the kyb agx for koni yellow and keep the h&r sport and my ingalls (ebay) camber kit Oh and I will cut the bump stop this time. Did you think it would be a better ride than now ?
