they should be equal both sides.

as above, did you actually use spring compressors?

doubt the bushes, they would squeak, rather rattle/thud at all times.

sounds to me like something in the shock setup that makes noise on compression. maybe the people that installed the springs...

leave it as is? looks perfect to me....

as far as i know, rear steering only works at low speeds and only a few degrees lock, so keep a bit of space in the rear gaurds and youll be fine either...

you guys ever heard of things called "pits"

ring local mechs an find one that has one....

First, nice choice on shock absorbers.

As said, there should be a hole for an allen key at the top of the shock, otherwise a rectangle type thing which you hold with a shifter or something, then...

There are two possibles

- Bushes need to be greased up. You know how you got a little bag....use it ALL on both bushes.

- Swaybar was incorrectly bent and taps against some part of the...

Have you had anything in the suspension recently changed?

Some bushes increase noise vibration and harness (NVH), which is just more road noise.

Also, have you checked everything is actually...

the miata one is shit, use www.1010tires.com

mate, a 32mm solid is mega MEGA overkill on almost any car.

I doubt they are solid. For example, my car weighs 1700kg and the optimum swaybar for my car and its handling package is a 24mm solid....

Mate, for any body part, they are not that cheap.

Infact, for the 5k some people here spend on wheels, I could build a race motor for my car!

It will cause premature wear, but it really depends how low you go.

I am sure the CV's are designed to work at the stock angles/height, as Honda wouldnt release 100,000+ cars with fast wearing...

www.topstage.com.au makes good custom CF shit

It really depends but the general idea would be -

a worn tyre is a worn tyre. A semi if it is softer compound may still grip better than a street tyre in the dry, but in the wet it will slide all...

I agree, on bikes, preload makes a difference. Though, on a car that has more traction through a corner and more curb weight, preload makes a pretty unnoticable difference to cornering as a car...

Could be the pad compound and disc just working with eachother. Mums Astra does this with premium pads and discs, all brand new. It doesnt effect the performance at all, car brakes harder than ever....

superR - that sleeve goes over a shock for a coilover... soooooo in others words, you will need a "coilover" (will come in a kit) shock to start with, so you are better of just getting a good spring...

Ok, superR, what you appear to have there is a spring with a lower spring seat for a coilover like the blues ones above.

What you would be buying you would "slip" over the shock in the coilover...

The term "coilover" is used to describe a suspension system that utilized a spring, coiled around a shock absorber to make a single unit, a strut.
...

I am in agreement with bennjamin.

Suspension is set up statically, but you need to think of it dynamically. Just because you get an alignment of -1deg, around a corner with shitty shocks it will...

Put it this way.

You want to keep the car as factory as possible - Honda did a good job in setting the car up but had to give up some performance for comfort.

So try to upgrade both the front...

Get more power and put lead weights in your boot.

Anything Chassis Tech is a poor product.

They used to be a good company, but then they become profit rather than quality oriented and have outsourced their manufacturing and now produce poor...

Let me put it this way.

Air suspension is a VERY tight legal feild of modifications.

Here is some quick info ive gathered after a court battle with Burnin Customs

- Air struts are illegal...

Shocks shouldnt be fast at all, they should be smooth and slow...well...not SLOW, but not like, spring back. They are ment to dampen.

As above, if you compress them and they dont rebound or do it...

Hold on. Maybe you need to define scraping.

To me, that means that the car is too low and part of a car is hitting the ground, aka scraping, along when turning/over bumps.

BUT, what you seem...
