Damping isn't adjustable, but trust me, they're STIFF haha

slowswap

That's gay. Adjustable dampening is one of the greatest advantages to coilovers for drag racing.

To be honest in the pictures is how I would want my car to sit, not to high nor low. Good stuff

i lowered the back about a .25" and the front about .5". i like that drag stance.

slowswap, even though they are not dampening adjustable (hell i can buy a set of koni adjustables for that i guess) its WAAAAYYYY better than what came out. that and the front simply does no lift even halfway between soft and hard.

so what about the footballs?

slowswap

I'm not doubting the fact that it's way better but dampening adjustability will pretty much completely lock the rear end. I remember on RedSSNA's car, the dampening on stiff alone wouldn't let the rear end move on take off. Once we jacked up the springs on top of it, it just gripped and went.

looks good tho stu. i wants those coils. in a few months ill be picking a set up

That's the kind of squat you should expect if that much.

hopefully. gotta remember im leaving quite a bit harder than that though

slowswap

The best thing you can do is jack the back way up. Harder for the car to transfer weight that way, but I'm sure you already knew that.

indeed i did. i have a pretty funny stance at the track. the height can only do so much though. the car was unloading bad in the front

slowswap

Some lift is good for traction, if you think of Newton's third law. You want about a 1/4" of front end lift. Again you knew this.

I can't wait to see your times on this setup, although you're going to have to relearn launching.

meh, just clutch and rpm variations. shouldnt take too long. it cant, i have a huge bracket race this weekend lol.

slowswap

You're going to have a lot more traction which will mean most likely a bog first launch.

Looks nice Stu

pshhhh, i always go out with a higher RPM than i know i will need, i find it easier to adjust down than up

i know it wont make a whole lot of difference at our shitty hooking track here, but hopefully when i get out to tulsa or ennis i see some mid 1.8's and MAYBE a low 8.0 1/8. i would enjoy that in my DD "street" tire FWD car

slowswap

A driver like you with a good set of "street" tires should do 1.8's all day. With some practice I could see you doing a low 1.8.

its done a 1.88 at ennis, but that was literally a perfect launch. most of the time at a good track its mid-low 1.9's. hopefully no mas

now this is some funny ****,
