I installed my buddy club coilovers over the weekend here is my review on them!! Shoutout to heeltoeauto for getting me the replacement shocks for the front and feal for rebuilding the rear shocks!!So installing these by my self was a pain in the a$$ I started at 9am and finished at 5:30pm i had the ride height the way i wanted. I cannot stress this enough when you change the suspension in the front make sure to tie off the front driver side hub DO NOT let it fall towards you if it does the axle will pop out of its joint its a huge pain to put it back!! But the car rides amazing love it so much even with tires that are 185/60/15 i was able to take a U turn on ramp at 40 mph before the wheels started slipping but now with these coilovers i was able to hit it at 55 mph with not a slip or screech it was amazing!! When installing the rear spring the adjustment part should be on top of the spring not the bottom you will need to trim the top piece. Here are some pictures enjoy!!
Don't for get to transfer all the upper mounts from the original suspension the front you will have to remove the spring from the strut. You can rent a spring compressor from Autozone!! thanks for looking!! Oh yeah let me know if anyone is going to streets of Willow on the 27th I will be out there!!




here is how she sits now!!









the problem child

 

With those tires, nothing you do to your suspension is actually going to raise your car's capabilities.

 

Limit straps are a good idea on that style rear coil setup, On a bad bounce I've had them come out.. Track car 200SX..

Looks just like a ground control setup.

 

yeah i know going to go with 185 first to the track and work my way up to a wider tire. I just don't want really good tires covering up my mistakes.

 

i will look into that good call. i made sure that when the wheel was off the ground they had a little preload

 

i always kinda wondered this, but how come the rear dampeners have those threads? is that just adjustment of how much they bottom out or something?

 

hi when you lower the car because of the solid rear axle how do you adjust the rear camber? i know the front is uses camber bolts but what does the rear uses?

 

Looking to buy these Some say no upper mount and are $1000. And other are around $1250. Do I really need the upper mount?
