The v-6 Mustang just doesn't belong...

You made the right choice. No more body roll at all now on my car. I can actually feel the stock Contis roll over now if I yank the wheel hard like when you do an emergency lane change. New tires in a couple months will take care of that.

SKCobalt

Interesting. I am waiting for mine too. Ordered them the first week of January. I assume that OTTP is looking into the unfilled orders by Pedders. I sure hope that they come soon (especially for you as you have been waiting about 2 months).

Yeah I'm waiting for the hardcore sway bars to come in

Terminator2

Waited 3 months for mine to come in. They have a ton made up over in Australia but they are not shipping them over here fast enough. The date codes on my springs were July and October of 2009. I ordered them December 11th and they came February 5th.

if we toss a little more damping force in yours, or maybe even make the jounce bumper longer (more progressive engagement) to help slow down the compression body movements, the H&R's on your car would be bang on.

i really liked the way your car felt, not as harsh as i was expecting(the tire plays into things here) she(or he i should say) felt good. progressive, aggressive. twas nice.

sure made my set-up feel even more uncivil.

Awww

True, the H&R's ride really nice. I've never driven a TC other than Marisa's, so i cannot comare, but it felt good compared to my coilovers. A little more compliant, and a little softer on turn in etc. Overall pretty good. We should get her some Nitrogen charged hyrdo-bumps

06black

if she'll let me, i'll space out the rear bump stop a bit to cause engagement to happen sooner. that'll add rate and help slow the cars body motions down. we might be wayyyy outta damper for that tho.

i've some how made suspension talk cute?

lol, thanks babe. :P

Rissa

You can do whatever you think is best! lol

ls1fbody

I personally haven't had it bottom out, but i'm sure she has, afterall, she drives it a whole lot more than i do.

06black

its not so much that it bottoms out, its that when you load up the spring quickly (bump at speed) say 1m/sec or so, and that H&R spring un-coils, the damper just isnt tight enough.

if you get a bit more jounce bumper in there, that'll all add rate so it should slow the body motions down, but it'll probably cause more head toss / pitch.

hrmmm......need to think about it.
if it fits, i'm swapping on a set of the 46mm mono's from bilstein as they are re-valve-able.

thefishyisblue

didnt you tell me you got your car stuck on a ramp pulling into the gas station??

ls1fbody

I was about to bring up the Bilsteins. Please keep me in the loop if they fit.

Stamina

I've got a friend on here that bought a set of springs in Oct/Nov if I remember right. He still hasn't gotten them. It stinks when he's been charged for them already and they're not even technically in the mail or anything. I "sprang" for some from another vender just recently that will be shipping them direct from Pedders, so I'll see if mine get here first. (The cat's out of the bag Pyros... )

I've been wanting to buy an OTTP Street Bar, but the website says they're out of them (and appears they have been for a while) and I've tried contacting OTTP about five times now through different forms to try to get status on it and haven't been able to get in contact with them. I can't order from them if they won't respond, so that's why I gave up and went elsewhere this time.

ls1fbody

Yep, but that was in my car, and it's happened more than once. Ask Marisa, i think there was once when i had a back tire like 6" off the ground ahah

Rissa

One of my tires was off the ground getting out of David's driveway on Saturday lol.

thefishyisblue

oh jeeze.

ls1fbody

OTTP has them drop shipped as well. You won't get them any sooner. You probably actually just made it more difficult for yourself, because OTTP orders them in much larger quantities.

Haha, yep, you were pretty excited when i told you.
