I didn't see it in the spring install since the shock wasn't completely removed, may someone have a definite torque number for you soon.

 

So here is my car on the Ksports! Woo hoo!!

 

lovin YO CAH SON! very nice, whats those wheel specs?

 

Nice!! What drop settings you have them set at? I'm trying to get a feel of where I have to set mine at. This way once and done for rode height

 

Wheels are XXR 962, 19x9.5 et+35. Well I basically dropped it all the way lol. I could technically lower it more if I completely take off the locking collars on the back, and tighten the springs up a bit on the front.

 

Any kind of rub?

 

No rub, but I am running 225/35, so they are stretched 1/2 inch over manufacturers specs to tuck nicely in the wheel well.

 

^Not too shabby lol. Will have to be on the look for your car around the city, shouldn't be too difficult.

 

ahahah i sitll dont get it... lolz
1st timer here.


ugh. i knew 962 will look good on our car... lolz

 

okay so i kinda get the how to adjust the height, how about the camber? i mean, what's a good camber fitment to our car?(is it right question?) what's the meaning of S and H?

 

i'm assuming ur talking about rebound...S being soft and H being hard

basically do u want ur springs/ride to feel softer (looser) or harder (stiffer)

not sure how KSport works, but i set the rebound on my KWs at 3 (out of 5)

 

i was right.. heheehe thanks kj...

oh yeah, might not go to torc later morning.

 

Installed ksports on 2 more tcs last night/early this am. Been a long night n haven't slept yet! Fml lol

Quick question. Im experiencing a weird clunking sound when I go over speed bumps and the rear wheels go up and over the bump... Any ideas about that? Is there something I may be missing? Pretty positive that I have everything tightened and snug, so I'm kind f lost here.... Any guidance would help!

 

Is the adjustable collar tightly bolted to the control arm? I couldn't figure how the rear collar sat on the spring. So I emailed them. And the part of the collar that has the bolt going through it should actually bolt to the control arm

 

another noob Q. what are the things that are included to ours coils? i know the wrench and those things to adjust the stiffness. what are the others for?

 

Yeah i didn't do that at first but changed it so that bigger round plate was underneath the control arm and bolted it up. That helped but there's still a weird thud when each wheel goes up and over the bump. It's only bigger things like speed bumps and only happens if I'm going over them at more than 2-3 mph and the rears compress quicker and higher than they would if I was creepin hella slow over

 

Where are you located? I'm stationed at Ft. Hood, so I go to Austin sometimes, and anywhere else rarely, it's too far. Did you go to Import face-off last Sunday?

Thanks! lol I thought the same thing and was kind of surprised nobody had gotten them yet!

Basically when I tightened the two bolts that hold the front coil on to the whole front assembly, I made sure to push it in towards the car and then tightened it. As you can see on the two holes on the coil, the top one is slotted to allow for adjustment. I made sure they are both as far in as possible, and whoever does my alignment can adjust that, or on the pillowball mount.

When you put the rear sleeve into the hole in the control arm, was it really snug? When I did mine, it was really snug and I couldnt get it to seat perfectly, but then I drove it a few miles and it adjusted itself and sat (seated? lol) itself, which in turn made that bottom plate and bolt loosen up. So just a quick tighten up and shes good. However, mine sounded more like a rattling, not a clunking. The only thing i can think of is the top mount on the rear, make sure its washer, rubber mount, car, rubber mount, washer, nut. And maybe try to tighten it up again while the car is on the ground, and after a few miles.

I am just as confused about those little brackets. I didnt see a need for them either! lol

Mine wasn't snug (that I recall) and I've tightened down the upper part like a ****. If you get a chance..take a speed bump would ya? I bet the noise I'm hearing is only because the car is so low and the suspension is compressing a lot, at a semi fast pace when I hit the bump and come back down (doesnt happen when I go slow, only when I give it a bit of gass). My buddy said his Teins did that too, so I wonder if I just need to take it easy on the speed bumps and take em creepin like a creeper.

As far as those brackets..all that crap was for the brakes lines, but I fail to see why you would need them. My stuff all bolted right back up where it was lol. I also had to nuts left in that bag (giggity)..hope they don't belong anywhere in particular! O.O

 

I seeking more guidance from those that have installed theirs. This bolt that goes up and holds the spring adjuster down has loosened up on my car. Is there something that is supposed to go down the end of the bold INSIDE the ring tube that keeps it from loosening? A nut or something. I have here the one mounted and the other sides bolt on the left. Am I doing something wrong or do I need nuts to go with these bolts?

 

installed the fronts. but havnt installed the rears. how do you remove the strut from the top? cant turn the nut. well it's turning but, the whole thing is turning even if i havnt remove the bolt the connects in to the lower arm.
