The Official EF Discussion Thread
no.
coilovers were meant for lowered applications, so spending more money on quality parts improves ride quality.
reason for bounce is blown shocks, reason for bottoming out feeling is UCA hitting chassis, reason for stiffness is springs.
In other news, was planning on autocrossing this morning...didnt happen. Started the car up after loading everything up, made it down the driveway and it stalled, figured it was because it was cold.
Not the case. After about 45mins to an hour of diagnosing, found the dist rotor took a ****, as well as some of the guts. Had a spare and went to swap everything over and found the spare was no good. Broke down and bought a new dist and wasnt able to make it to the autocross.
AAAHHHHH!!!!!
friends showed up today to help put my car back together, get ready to put the head on and notice a scratch on the surface
off to the machine shop and then try and do it again

You can find shortened front shocks here, stock length rear. My buddy had them on his sts auto-x ef and the highest the shock would go is about where pixie's car is at now. But at roughly $1200 a set, its alot of money to lower a car that much correctly. The ride is **** even while tucking some tire and kickin corner ***.

Yeah, this is my first time using photoshop, so I'm experimenting with what I can do. I literally got it like 12 hours ago.
As for the "dumped" comment, I didn't mean the car is dumped, it's just been lowered a lot from where it used to be. Remember? 4 inch wheel gap?
And if it went any lower, the muffler would be on the ground, and the wheel wouldn't turn all the way without rubbing immensely.
What it comes down to is, it's not your car, it's Pixie's car. And from what I can tell, it's exactly the way she wants it. She's building it for herself, not some audience. She actually wants her car to stand out a little. Not look like every other EF out there with a red pinstripe and a stock emblem. And from what she's told me her plans are, this is only the beginning. So you guys better be ready to hate for awhile.

not for an audience eh? youre the one that said comments welcome! and i gave you mine. you must remember not everybody is gonna like the car but its all good tho as long as the young lady likes it then thats all that matters. thats one big reason i dont post my car or better yet feel the need to post it. as long as each individual likes his or her own car thats all that matters.
