copmagnet Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 so I have slowly been acquiring parts, but do to deployment work up it's kinda just been a pile of parts in my room. (my mom was less then thrilled.) Today I finally got the time to install some! I installed the Strange coil over kit with 14" 175lb springs, and some maximum motorsports caster camber plates. Before. Once it was all out. It's a little dirty from a experience with a muddy ditch a couple weeks ago..Installed the MM Plates. Wasn;t thrilled about drilling my car but... And finally!Doesn't look slammed but the springs didn't have time to settle yet, After the drive home it dropped about another half inch. I can't believe how smooth the car rides now compared to the factory stuff! I was hitting huge bumps (independence to witchduck) for those who live near me. and i could hardly feel them! also the cornering felt so much better. I took and off ramp pretty hard (I like to feel like [MENTION=6]iRoush[/MENTION] sometimes) and the body roll was reduced so much I couldn't believe it. we ran out of time so my bumpsteer kit and the rear haven't been done yet, but after those are done I will get an alignment, and then hopefully upload my new thread....for my cam swap > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iRoush Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 looks good dude. little soft on the spring rate for me but I'm a nut job and think 550lb spring rates are the norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copmagnet Posted December 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Need moar low.Kidding, looks great! How do you like the plates? Putting those on mine soon.LOL, I'd like them more if I didn't have to drill a hole in my car! there very nice. beautiful kit. very quality. much nice.looks good dude. little soft on the spring rate for me but I'm a nut job and think 550lb spring rates are the norm I'm thinking I should have gone with 12" 200lb springs instead... oh well. 70$ for springs isn't bad.

Det_Riot Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 I'm as low as I am with 14" 175 Springs. Be careful though as you might right into some spring bind issue rubbing up on the coilover spring. I did but I think that was because my spring hats weren't sitting right. Just soemthing to be aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 man those mm caster camber plates look sick. nice drop but can we see the whole car now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Looks great, I need some full view pics of the car though, hard to judge the drop from up close. I run 12-350 up front, and personally I think that's perfect for a street driven car with a mild track feel to it. I've had 12-200's and 12-250's in the past, both rode well but I wanted more.
