Default Tein NA's

Does anyone know if you can adjust the c-ring perch on the shock of the NA's without compressing the main spring and taking the whole assembly out? Basically, I'm asking if you can loosen the stock pillow ball mount and have enough room to lift the perch up and move the c-ring.

thanks,
Jon L.

I don't think so, but I could be wrong!!
I have the NA, and the shop installed for me asked me to make sure I know which setting i want before installing it, because they will have to take apart everything to change it once it is installed!!

What perch do you have it set on? How low is it? I'm just curious, do you have any pics? I have mine on the second to last perch and there is about a one finger gap in front. In the rear, the gap is bigger. I don't know if lowering it to the last perch will make it even. Do you have the same problem?

I am at the highest position right now, I think it give around 1.5" drop all around!!

But I have a DelSol instead of a ITR. But since I have the ITR engine, so I go ahead and used the NA for DC on my car!! So I don't think I can use it to compare to your car!!

Right now, it give around 1.5 finger space in both front and the back!!

Hey,
Do you want to trade suspensions? The suspension I have on my ITR is for 1992 and up Civics . I'm pretty happy, I just wish it was a little easier to adjust the height.

Trade?? No thanks, I am happy with mine now!! I like the stiffer spring rate for the DC!!

I don't know about you, but I think the back sit a bit higher look really nice. So I wouldn't bother to change it!!

Coilover is pain in the *** to set the height, and if you don't have it corner weight, it can actually make the handling worse!! That why I sell my Koni/ GC combo and go with TEIN NA!!

NA's can't be adjusted without taking them off the car.

My HA's (Coilovers) are pretty easy to adjust without using cornerscales BUT always measure from the rocker panel NOT the wheel well. I had my car within 2% of balanced (With me in the car) by doing this. THen I had it balanced.
