Picked them up at UPS today during lunch and installed them tonight.

Big thanks to Ghettoracer for the Skunk2 Arms, SRR-Racing.com for the rear camber and toe kits and Mike at IPS for the Zeal Function B6's.

trey those have got to be the pimpest suspension componets i have ever seen!!! congrats man. keep me posted on how you like them. i'm sure they'd look good on my "tin can civic"! i'd like to know how they perform too!! congrats!!

 

Nice toys Trey.

 

NICE!!!!!! you putting them on now or what???

 

i dont see the swift springs, so i think those are b6's. i have a set of b6's that i also got from Mike@ips..

ladies hate them, but I'm sure you'll love them.. i know i do!

 

these are .

anyhow, you should weigh em. AND.. how much did you ge the camber kits for?

 

Looks !

Suite 200

 

yummmmm

 

They are already on. Took me a couple hours. Not put in the Skunk arms or the toe pieces. Will install the toe parts on the rack. Need to modify my skunk arms to prevent slippage before I put them in.

Tim, they ride really well. THe rates are 10/6 vs the TEIN HA's 8/6 and believe it or not they might just ride smoother. I will give a more thourough review once the snow clears.

 

I was going to remind you to do that!! I used some hex head bolt, locking (star)washer and a locking nut in the back and the slipping problem seems to go away.

Congrats on the new toys!

 

Please don't forget......
Big bling bling factor....
And did I read right? You didn't weigh them before you put them on?

 

why do u need the camber adjusters, is it b/c u dint get the pillow mounts?

 

 

lookin good

 

so he can slam dat **** and get mad show points y0!


trey, when you said "10/6 and 8/6" i know thats spring rates, but what measurement?

 

They are B6's. Too impatient to wait the 3+ months for the S6's.

I did not weigh them and I am feeling guilty about it since there was a scale in the shop. They do seem to weigh a noticable amount less than the TEIN HA's.

My wife really doesn't mind driving the R with the modified suspension at all!

I paid $175 for the front arms from Ghettoracer

I paid $105 for the rear camber kit AND Toe Kit from SRR-Racing.com. They gave me a discount when they found out I owned http://www.itrca.com. I have mentoined getting them to give ITRCA members a discount if you guys are interested I will follow up on it.

 

Zeals come with pillow ball mounts. Pilow ball mounts on the DC2 do NOT have any camber adjustment. Most cars that have pilowball mounts do have this type of adjustment but our cars do not.

Camber kits are to set the camber exactly how I want it. I will actyually ADD negative camber to the front and likely take a little out of the rear. I am looking at about -2 degrees front and -1.75 degrees rear.

ROb, which measurements are you asking for exactly? Height?

 

 

just wondering the unit of measurement....

 

kg/mm

 

unit is kg/mm. Same as saying 10/6 = 554/335 lb/in

Not sure of the length of the springs.

I did do some quick height adjustment. From the rocker panel (Jack points) the car sits 5" from the floor in the front and just under 5.5" from the floor in the rear

 

Nice.
