Koni Yellows and H&R Sports Installed
Let me start by saying that this upgrade dramatically changed the feel of the car...compared to the old setup (blown stock shocks + nuespeed Race)
The cars feels 100x better at the middle adjustement...still waiting to test out the stiffest setting...
On to the pics...
old seup...blah
thanks for looking...

Do you have camber correction kit on it? I had a set of Eibachs on a while back and pulled them off after about a month. I still have them in storage in the states. Ran the Eibachs and Koni yellows on the wifes Si and it improved it amazingly. When my dampners ware out I'll opt for the Koni's. I had problems when I had the Eibach springs on the ITR it was wandering bad even with a camber kit.

You dont need a camber kit, you need to set your toe.
you change camber, changes toe also.

did both took it and had it aligned several times. And it wanderd spring rate sucked too. No problems with the Si.

If it wandered then something wasnt straight. My car wonders and darts all over the place on falkens/r-tires with 1/8" toe out per side.

pulled alignment sheet from 2002 when I had the springs on. left front toe 1/32 right -1/32 specified range -3/32 through 3/32 camber was -5/8 on both. At that time I still had the RE 010's. I am running the Azenis 205/50/15 with stock suspension no problems. soon to be replaced with some S03,s

a little?
I just had my alignment done the other week. I wondered why my car (didn't wander more than usual on the street but) would definitely pull hard to the drivers side and almost drift through a high speed braking zone.
Turns out that jackwad that did the last alignment "eyeballin" & with a slide-rule and BFH had the drivers side toed out 1/16th front and rear, and passengers side 1/32nd front and 0 rear.
I remember specifically asking for the desired track settings when said jackwad did his damage.
The car wandered about the same, maybe just a bit more than stock settings. And I'm on **** a55ed rutted and potholed NY highways and byways.
Now that the alignment is set Correctly it didn't even pull when bedding in new pads.
There is something to be said for the guys who take the time to do it the right way and actually listen to their customers
I think alot of reported "pulling" is related to the crowning on road surfaces, or ruts from highly travelled truck routes and or even torque steer to a certain extent.
