Whoever has this setup, what have you found to be the best settings for both the front and rear Koni's (for the street). You'll have to say like how much turning from say full firm, that would probably be easiest. And I just installed them this past Saturday(4-20-02) along with the comptech rear sway/tie combo, and I currently have both front and rear on like mid-way between firm and soft. I did this because I have heard that you should keep them on nearly full soft(although mine are already set a bit more firm than that) for the first week or so when you first install them, is this true, or can I go ahead and set them they way I like immediately? Please let me know, thanks.

 

You just have to go by what feels best to you. The roads in Nashville are worse than Memphis, so I keep mine set a bit softer when in Nashville, turn them up a bit more when I go to Memphis. On the interstate I turn them down to full soft.

 

Anyone else?

 

can u plz restate ur post using proper grammar??

 

I see no problems with his grammar, maybe a couple typos or two, but this ain't no English class (which I made A's in ).

 

Yea, I just tried to read your post on your sub box and your friends box. I didn't understand one word of YOUR POST. How about you using proper grammer and then you can boss others around.

 

when i first put my neuspeed koni yellows in a few weeks ago i used the full soft settign to get a feel for the new set-up (konis and eibach sportlines). with that settign the ride was a bit bouncy so i turned them up 3/4 of a turn in the rear and abotu 5/8 of a turn in the front (keep in mind that it takes 2 full turns to get from full soft to full hard). i liked this setting a lot better as it got rid of a lot of the bouncy ride and made the car handle much flatter and have a much better turn in repsonse. i now have the settings on 1 full turn in the rear and 3/4 turn up front. i tihnk that this is pretty much perfect for my set-up on the street. there is no bouncy ride whatsoever and it is still compliant enough so i dont cringe too badly every time i hit a large bump. wheni start auto-x'ing in a few more weeks i am going to experiment with the settings in the upper half of the adjustment range and see what i get there. all in all, you ahve to experiment for yourself and see what your set-up can deal with and how you like the ride to be. good luck.

WTF is wrong with my post? Yes, I know it full of run-on sentences, fragments, and probably even some type-o's, BUT it's just a quickly written post to ask some questions, I'm not writing a freaking thesis paper for my Master's Degree(of which I already have along with my Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering). So if you would like to reply with some comments on what my original post had, then please do so, if not then just chill out or go buy a life. Peace.

 

i understood what you were saying and replied accordingly.....some people just dont like to take an extra 2 seconds to follow what someone else is saying....

good luck with the suspension set-up btw....

I'm not ******* you ILOVTEC, redteg1 has the grammer problem

 

Cool, thanks for the replies. Peace, love and VTEC.

 

any more settings for daily driving?

Is it bad to run full soft all the time?

 

i am about to go with this setup myself
what perch settings are you running

 

Ha, its kinda erie to see this/my post back from the dead, I totalled that teg 11-11-02, but now its heart and soul powers my EG hatch, REBORN baby

Later

 

0 being the stock perch +/- 2, I'm running -1 in fromt and 0 in the rear.

It really eliminates the uneven 'look' people refer to with the prokit.
I am so happy with the drop. I love it.

Now if I could just get these f#$kin settings down....
