Got cusco's in and have been getting a clunking sound when I wanna go lower.
Pic attached to help explain.
I've wound the shock to as short as it can go, it hits an inner lip and you can't wind it any further down.
I've also just last night removed one of the adjusters so I can get the car lower, since it was sitting with a 1cm gap from the tyre and that's not hardcore enough.
Does this look right to you experts?
I realise the clunking is because at the top, the metal cup for the spring adjuster is a larger inner diameter to the piece that it sits around. I'm not sure how to overcome this. I'm thinking of making a rubber inner cup/boot to fill the space so the upper adjusting cup cannot move from side to side anymore.
Thoughts?

for a comparision mate.
I see, the cusco spring is nowhere near as short as yours. Buddyclub?
Yup, Buddyclub N+ Coilovers :)Quote:

That should eliminate any clunking I'm guessing.

loving the back!
from the front I would go for diff set of wheels / tyres. Looks a bit chunky.
Bah, and I was meant to be the only one going for a black RR. grr
Looks amazing!
Where did i put my box of tissues...
lower profile streched tires and more lows and it will be BALLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hotness.Quote:

FD + trackspec is an oxymoron. wait, im a moron.
Cars looking hot man. Not sure if its worth tracking an fd
i regret not tracking mine before selling it, wouldve been a good experience
Serious? do you think it'll be worth tracking it though?
if it was stripped, slicks, turbo'd, pro driver behind the wheel. lol
my custom exhaust doesnt pop loud when i heeltoe =S - its like "pop >.>" not like other cars "BANG ^^" catback????
Wouldnt supercharging be more better for the fd =PQuote:

hahahaha. Imagine the reaction from others when they know whats under the hood
i took mine to wakefield...the best time of my life...i did 1.18 was my PB...WRX was doing 1.14...4 second from 2.0T and 1.8l sohc FD...thats pretty good figure i thought.
just slap some coils on it and its good to go cos the stock suspension has too much body rollQuote:

for stig
coils are pretty much sorted. Just looking at getting some spacers and some neg front camber.

Mugen RR bumper picked up, to be painted next two weeks :)
Those rpf1 dont seem to stand out as much as other I've seen on fd.... seems like something missing.
RR ayyy.... good thing your not in brisbane ahah - im the only one that I know of rolling it so head turns all round =D
looks nice man! no need for neg front camber. looks better if just the rears are cambered.. besides, front camber isnt so good for fwd cars
yeah, im assuming that they're like 8" wide or around there. the rpf1's only start having the flat face in 9" or wider, like my old set of wheelsQuote:

i miss how my car was, now that i look at old pics :(
my front are 17x7.5 +48 and the rears and 17x8 +35 i think.. don't quote me on the offsets.
I need some spacers on the front, or maybe run the 17x8's on the front since they stick out more, and put spacers on the rear.
I'm a little hesitant on using spacers though..
Got exhaust tips on the day after i took the phtoto (just civic sport ones).
I'm thinking of going with orange side repeaters, will look better on black than the clear ones do..
in my opinion, run spacers on the rears, because u'll be running more stress on the bolts and driveshaft if on the front. however for looks i reckon the rears you should run 17x8's because everyone behind you will be like 0.o
when your car was like that it was in was my fav FD on here.Quote:

ohhh really.. ima burn them haha. well only black RR heheh. if only I got a red one >.<Quote:

needs more low?? thinking about it.
what you guys recon?
i reckon needs a kit
moar lows at the front.
i think your right.
got a closer shot of the front gap between wheel and guard?
My guard is sitting around 2mm from the guard at the moment, mush nicer look that a few cms.
I'm of the opinion that the clearance at the front and back of the skirting should be the same, it's nicer to have the car sitting level than to be a bumdragger i reckon.
http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/x...3c80524ee5.jpg
at the moment the car sits flat. if not a little lower at the front!! weird.
http://i54.tinypic.com/11kk0sl.jpg
I'm running this. Front passenger side. The drivers side is about 2-3mm higher, I'll be adjusting this up the same when i get a chance.
I don't scrub heaps, only if I'm tight cornering and there's a decent bump in the corner.
do you still have all your plastic inner wheel guards in place?
Yus I still have them in, you can see it :)
I've been thinking about what to with them, possibly trimming them and tucking them higher up into the guard.
suggestion?
mine are ripped out. full load, full lock, no probs. lol
Any dramas with water in your engine bay during heavy wet weather?
theres parts in the front of the gaurds that are still there but there is parts where water can get in.
no props in over a year and in some heavy ass wet weather! my engine bay is always spotless too.
so no dramas.
get ur guards rolled and keep the inner lining. it may not be as cheap as just pulling out the plastic, but its worth it if u try to go for an even more aggressive set up. with 17x9 +20, i was able to have a full car load and be dumped without scrubbing. that is with the help of some rear camber arms and rolled guards.
http://i52.tinypic.com/2s9vee0.jpg
awwwww yeahhhh!! LOL
facking delish!
werd. the wonderful world of camber..

man those front spacers pump it up.
i would lick a hobo with a shotguns a hole for those wheels.
Question: should I DIY rolling my guards? or should I get them done properly?
done properly
Dont risk that on a new car
how much can our guards be rolled anyways?
u can get them rolled flat
