I installed the rear suspension the other day at the body shop and there's hardly any drop. It lowered it maybe 1/2inch. I didn't cut the bumpstop. I installed ingalls extreme camber kit with it. Any clues on what went wrong?

Wait for it to settle.

hmm, no clue. I have goldlines and the wheel gap is less than 2 fingers in the back. Like ^^^ said, see if it settles.

winter project: custom t3/t4 turbo and some others

werd, goldlines and tokico blues, check the sig.

You have to give the springs a chance to settle. The day that I installed my Prokits the car looked only about 1/2 inch lower. I would say that it took them a good 2-3 weeks to completely settle in.

I hope it's not 2-3 weeks. I have a car show in a week.

doug is right, they need time to settle. when i took off my sportlines and installed prokits instead...my car looked like it was jacked up off the ground....now it looks almost the same as it did with the sportlines. i would say that after a month you'll def. be able to see the differenc

how much better is the handling with the pro kit as opposed to the sportlines? i plan on getting the pro-kit anyways, I just want to hear your opinion on them.

I installed the front suspension 2 days ago and it looks pretty good, but there's still about a 2 1/2 finger gap all the way around. In the rear the top of the wheels tilt out.. so should I only use 3 washers instead of 4, or should I wait a week or 2 to see if it drops more and makes the wheel straight? Also, I havn't adjusted the front camber kits yet. the top of the wheels are tilting in a little. Should I adjust the kits to the furthest to the outside of the car?

If you want to go low then coilovers are the way to go.

Try to adjusting the camber kit so that its only giving the least amount of + correction. I wouldn't recommend using the extreme C.Kit for small drops like 1.2-1.5.

I have the extreme kit in the back and the standard kit in the front, and goldline springs are supposed to drop 2" all the way around. The last time I saw my car was about a week and a half ago. I'm going down to the body shop tomorrow to see if the car's almost done, and I'll see if the springs have settled down anymore. I put all 4 washers in the rear and over-corrected the camber, so the top of the wheel was sticking out as you can see here:


Hopefully if it dropped more the wheels should be straighter.
