lowered springs for ek?

**[archie]** · November 24th, 2010 11:08 PM

i have neuspeed green (1.5 inch drop). from 13's to 17's natry ko na. and yes pwede siya sa 17's basta 40 series yung goma. may konti rubbing issue sa turning sa right na sagad but ok lang. yung 17's mo isang dangal pa rin agwat? medyo malaki ata yun for 17's.

anyway, meron sa market na .5 drop lang but i forgot what brand and color. its a question on how low do you want to go. putting 2 lifters sa spring does not make sense, just do a little research on what springs have .5 drop if you dont wana go low. i think tein have .5 inch drop pero not sure what model.

standard is 1.5 inch drop for a daily driver na gusto mo may angas ng konti and not hard on your butt.

check my car na naka17's in neuspeed green with 1 inch lifter sa likod.

naguluhan yata ako sir. bibili ka ng lowering springs tapos lalagyan ng lifters? edi mag-ccancel lang, sayang lang sa pera. 0.5 drop nga bagay, hindi masyadong lowered, pero may porma konti.

sir archie, hindi mo pa rin nabebenta kotse mo? sabi ko sa'yo, benta mo na lang saken hehe

OT: change of plans. may interesting option na try.

not for sale for now, pag gumana... well, it will stay with me na. hehe

BBT: mas ok 17's on 1.5 inch drop, parang busog yung fender gap. mga 1-1.5 finger gap na lang. gwapo sana kaso hindi ko kaya tagtag kaya balik 15's.

may napagtanungan ako sa kaizen na kapag stock springs ang kinabit titingala yung oto at bouncy yung ride,so yung lowering springs ang mas maganda daw kasi di titingala yung oto pero ayoko nung masyadong lowered, hirap sa akyatan sa ramps at humps. so inadvice sakin na maglowering springs at mag lifter para di masyado lowered. thats why im asking kung tama ba yung advice sakin, or buy na lang ako surplus springs at kabit ko sa kayaba gas shocks ko then langyan ng lifter yung likod para di nakatingala?

yung isang dangkal sir nung naka 15's lang ako. now lang ako nag17's, ok ba maglagay ng rubber lifter? tatagal ba yun at madudurog o kakalas sa spring,shock.

yung akin ok pa naman until now. i just dont know kung kakabit sa taas kasi hindi nakacompress kung kakabit lowering spring so the tendency it that when you hit a big bump, baka mawala sa kalalagyan niya.

sir kung DOHC engine ka baka gusto mo consider CTR springs bentahan is around 4-5k, mababa lang ng konti sa stock OEM springs

[quote=archie123456789;1617334]teka teka, gusto mo sir stock height? why not get the OEM na lang. way cheaper than lowering spring and the comfort would be better. lifters are used to increase a little height para hindi nakatingala yung oto. aggressive pa rin tignan. usually sa likod ito kinakabit.

nakabili na ako stock springs with stock shocks, smooth na yung ride niya, di na rin sumasayad yung gulong ko sa inner fender cover. sir archie san kayo nakabili lifter for civic? wala ako makita sa banawe puro pang toyota and mitsubishi lang.

OT lang..Sino po dito ang naka TEIN or H&R springs.I've read na maganda daw ang mga to in terms of ride comfort. i reretire ko kasi yun Whitelines ko and im planning to get either of the two. Meron ako nakita Tein "soft" closer to stock ba yun ride nito nakakastress na kasi ang ride ng current springs ko eh. Thanks
