HELP....suspension...car is way too bouncy!
i just put my new suspension on my 95 CX hatch. the suspension is:
Koni Yellows & Skunk2 Adj. Springs
the car handles great.....when its not bouncing. i lowered the car a little bit, and have the rear shocks adjusted as firm as they go(2 full turns to firm), and the fronts 1/2 way ( 1 turn towards firm). any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks

If they are brand new they may need time to settle. Also try softening the back shocks (as long as you dont have 6 subs and three people in the back seat) it should help.

Re: HELP....suspension...car is way too bouncy! (twinturbobb)
Most of the time when the suspensions are bouncy is because the shocks can't hold the spring. eg- too stiff of a spring rate with week shocks or it could be blown or leaky shocks. If the Koni's are new and they should have no problem handling stock skunk2 rate which should be under 400lb. I would check the shocks for oil leaks or damages. And sent them back to Koni for warranty.
