what is a decent strut to diminish some of the bounce from the skunk2 coilover system currently on stock struts... YIKES!!!

 

Koni yellow.

 

i'm about to buy a settup with skunk 2 coilovers on stock dc2 struts to put in my ek 4door. is the ride that bad? what setting do you have your coilovers set to 1-4??? any bushing/camber kit?

1-4? What are you talking about.

 

isn't there settings to adjust on the skunk coilovers? i was asking him between 1-4 what is opinion on how bad the bouncing is. 1 being very low and 4 being extremely bouncey!

 

I use kyb agx shocks (set at full stiff 4f/8r) with my civic spring rate (447f/335r) skunk2 sleeve coilovers...I like the ride, and there's no fender gap.

 

I just put some tokico illuminas on tonight......can't tell you how it rides though, don't have an engine in yet

 

the skunk2's don't have a setting, they are simply a coilover system, when you say 1-4 maybe you are talking about a 1-4 inch drop, the stock strut dampening cannot be changed. The illuminas are five way ajustable, but not the skunk2 spring in terms of dampening force.

 

thanks dude. you answered my question

 

know anyone trying to get rid of a set? i need some for the ek

 

u dont have enough dampening force, which is why u are bouncing all over the place

 

There are a lot of reasons why a damper even with enough damping force will ride like garbage...

Chances are, there isn't enough travel.

Take a look at this very informative thread put together by some very helpful members.

I suggest this thread be stickied in the suspension forum....
