I actually dropped mine slightly lower then I posted above, I have 1/4" thread showing for the rear now.

I'll try to get some stance pictures up soon. Still need to raise the front some (the extra 60lbs in the front make a difference)

 

That's a really good point actually, JhnRx7 can you post pics of your upper A-Arms?

 

Having just done bushings in my car i can tell you it would be very difficult for you to install the control arm upside down. You're coil over would not line up properly.

 

I've seen it done:

 

You can see mine are installed properly from the last set of pics I posted.

Only other shot I have at the moment:

 

I take it back

 

BlinD26, Are you at the 25” measurement at the rear? (Ground to the wheel opening arch, centered.)

 

26 1/4" floor to arch, but I have 3 gallons of gas in the car currently.

Once I get full curb weight achieved and all the suspension dialed in I will post up all my final settings.

 

man i just finished reading this thread. very helpful.. i myself would not be sure if i would get these, unless some things are fine tuned..

 

I've been doing some massive overtime at work these past couple months so I've neglected this thread. I have been DD my car once a week and with the freeways here I am sure if there are any control arm issues they will be render themselves clear on my car once I investigate.

You CAN get your rear to 25", for me that was the minimum I could do. However when I took my car to get it aligned for "Aggressive street" use, ie 3-4 track days in the year, most street, the guys set me up at 25 1/4 in the rear, 25 in the front which seems perfect IMO.

 

Would love pics of your stance!

 

+1.. i would like pictures.. i see ppl do enjoy the comfort for dd and for track days. i would like to see the pictures on how the car looks either lowered to the max, and or to their preferred setting.

 

I'm selling my stage 2's for 800 with less than 2600 miles on them just because i'm selling my car their great coilovers i wouldn't hesitate to buy them again

check the pic for my stance on stock wheels.

 

Pm sent!

 

Only If they were stage 3s

 

Afaik the only difference is the spring rates, so if the price is right then you can buy a spare set of springs that you'd prefer after.

 

Had the wheels off this week and notice this mark (See pic=green circle) from the upper arm (See pic=pink circle) rubbiing/banging into the bottom of the coilover in the rear on both side. No big deal and nothing a grinder won't fix but I've noticed this in a quite a few of the posted pics. Just a heads-up I can't see this being good for either component in the long term.
Missed the previous post on the issue, sorry just say I have the same problem!

 

 

Yea, yea, been busy and have not been keeping up with the thread.

 

i think the ? was because there was no pic posted

 

^ Reduced the image size, I hope this help. Looks fine from here.

 

It has to be uploaded directly to the site......

 

Just a quick pic before going to a local carshow:



25" front, 26" rear

 

hope they fix all the problems before im in the market to buy some coilovers

 

Can't wait to put my stage III's on!!
