Pirates coilovers
#31
Hi all, look forward to shock dampening tests and resulting ride report. That report will be in mid-late May.
That's a promise but you will have to wait.
The coilover thumb screws are still at 9/18 or 50%, (safely nowhere) as per the report.
When I get back to issue stage 2 of this report the 03 G35 sedan while be on Rear "true" coilover set-up, shouldered 19's, have Front &R camber arms, R toe arms, fender flanges rolled, rear fender lips pulled and 4 wheel alignment is planned to be in specification for an 03 SEDAN.
I've been delayed on the dampening tests because of the waiting parts for the listed sedan suspension/wheel/tire project. I've been busy with 2 other vehicles the past 3 weeks. Transmission on 4x4 SUV and a v-twin cruiser. I'm having plenty to do and fun while hard at it!
I've not even moved this 03 G35 sedan project car 100 miles since the my "pirates coilovers" report.

^^^did you buy these from the same seller as toro?? cause i think his are yellow and yours are orange...i know they make red/yellow/blue/orange coilovers but most dealers sell red ones and the $450 that toro got from China are yellow.

4D which way is stiffness adjustments I don't have any instructions just a diagram that says mdu. I'll have it slammed next week I'm putting on my brakes and suspension at the same time. What stiffness do you have yours on 4d and are you setup as a true coilover in back I think I am going to go that way.
