Default Strange Engineering Suspension Need some help

Ok, I got Strange engineering for my EG. When I very first took it to the dyno to Tony, he noticed it sat way to low even set all the way up. Tony found out that spacers need to be made. Then I found out the Innes had them on his old car that Fergie used to drive. He told me that Mazurowski made them for him. Called Mazurowski and he said he would need to get the specs first and then he could make them. So I was under the impression that he was going to get them. Welp that didn't happen cause of course he is a very busy man and probably doesn't have time to root around for some crap for a guy in Dallas. So my question is, IS THERE ANY ONE OUT THERE that runs this suspenion, has the adapters and can tell me wtf I need to do so they are setup right and my damn slicks can clear.

Yeah when you said HE told me , I ASSumed you meant Tony told you that. Sorry for trying to help

FTW

You should have James call Mark so they can discuss it, lol

Back to trying to help again, Miller and Big Tom on here are Strange dealers and may be able to help. Also Andrea and Jeff Evans ran them on the CRX before so maybe they could assist also. But if you have spoken to Tony, I am sure he may have provided all thsi info to you already? Good luck either way

EDIT: Another BRIGHT idea I had was , Innes has their race car for sale, buy that andtake the suspension and spacers off of it

They're for the top of the shock.

I don't see why Tony couldn't make them for you.

ComposiMo - John Ward made these for us.

There is a pic of the spacers in this threadhttps://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1914546
Seems like an easy fix to me and not very expensive.

That would be too easy and it might cost money to call long distance

Have any of you guys come across them not sitting evenly with one another? I just installed a set on a EG and some coil-overs aresitting at diff heights than the others are. However, on my ek everything is pretty ***** on with them.

I have not had a chance yet to contact Strange.

Well, i can probably get you a set of Omni front shocks for about the same price as it will cost to make those spacers properly. I'd rather have the Omni's, but your call.
