Default KYB owners need help

i just dropped my teg w/ KYB AGX and H&R Sports. it looks great!! i haven't really pushed it yet. i was wondering what you guys' setting is on. right now im at 2 front and 3 back. feels pretty good, not too harsh and not too soft.

also, u guys know that under body plastic thingy, i think its there for aerodynamic reasons/protection, well on my car it kinda sag, i think its cuz i pulled out on one those parking humps too hard. now that my car is lowered it scrapes everytime i go over a speed bumps. i tried it at every speed and angle and i still manage to scrape. u guys have any solutions how to fix it.

thanks

Depends - I run mine on 2 F & 3 R for solo events, but put them on 1 when I'm taking the girlie out. I'm running Eibach Sportlines.

Does your muffler scrape over speedbumps with the H&R's? How much of a drop were they?

i used to change the settings a bit but now I leave them on 3 all around all the time, including freeway. The roads here pretty much suck but you get used to the feeling. I have never even tried 1 because 2 is too sissy for me. 4 is a lil too hard for everyday.

I have it on 4 all the way around. Its a little rough but I got used to it quick. I'm thinking about getting the Koni Yellows b/c I want a stiffer ride.

Right now I'm running 2 all the way around on Ground Controls... Pretty decent ride but not the same in the corners unless I stiffen her up some more.

I either use 3f/4r or 4f/4r. I don't find it too harsh at all.

naw it doesn't just the plastic stuff in the bottom. i have H&R sports, its suppose to be 1.75 front and 1.5 in the back. but it suppose to settle a lil lower than that.

im about to take off my mudflaps tom.

i use 1 and 2 for street and 2 and 4 for autoxing.
as for the plastic
its there to protect **** in the engine bay... it helps keep dirt outta there. i took mine off cuz it was falling off.

sutrusu: the plastic thing doesn't protect the engine bay or anything?
