Hey all just enquiring about some information regarding the installation of the N+ coilovers.
I have read on a TSX forum that the N+ are to be setup at 200mm front spring height and 240mm rear spring height. I backed off the spring retainers, then re-tightened them up to suit those dimensions. With the 200 and 240mm respectively they just seat nicely and are not loose, nor too tight in the hangars.
I will measure these more accurately prior to installation, and adjusted the lower assembly so each coilover was even, i think i went (from lowest point of spring locking nut to top locking nut of the lower assembly) 90mm front and 95mm rear. I will also do this more accurately before installation.
Sitting upright on the ground they sit perfectly even.
Now my main question is have i adjusted the springs correctly??????????? (i didnt tighten the shit outta them - just put a slight bit of pressure on them so they dont rattle in their hangars) ------------ and the height adjustment will be a trial and error process once on the ground.
I know about removing the rear seats for the rear nuts on the shock tower, and about preloading the suspension before tightening. Please see some pics below to see if i have started setting this up correctly.
Thanks all.
Front assembly - approximately 200mm spring height (firm in the hangars but not loose either)
Front assembly - approximately 90mm between locknuts
Rear assembly - approximately 240mm spring height (once again, firm in the hangars)
Rear assembly - approximately 95mm between locknuts
