Good idea... linky?
I still need to take some measurements though. Golfing tonight so it'll have to wait another day or two

 

Get on it Scott!! lol
jk

Obviously im in no rush... nor are you. haha

 

So Scott.. were you able to make some measurements yesterday? =)

 

You get your car back yet?

Any new reviews/updates with the CO's?

 

man, how the heck did i miss this thread? anyway if i hold my breath any longer for coilovers, i think im going to pass out.

 

Will you go for these CO's if they work on our car?

 

Scott?

FlyingLumpia?

 

^ Hey Wes, I can tell that the waiting is just killing you...isn't it?



..................................me too!
Every time I see a new post in this thread I get excited...until I open it and see there's no new progress. We just have to be patient.

 

Good stuff Paul.


...fingers crossed for you X drivers

 

Tell me about it. hehe

The drop height of Springs alone ... im skeptical, but CO's... its a dream come true. I can choose the height I want and get the performance I need.

I really wish this works out!!!!

 

...don't know if this helps any, but here are a couple of pics from the 1st & 2nd gen SMs.

The design of the bottom end has changed considerably,
from a single fork to a double fork.
BUT, they both attach to the damper in a similar fashion.

To me there are two questions....
- Is the hub at the bottom of the damper the same for both.
- Is the damper length close to the same height.

1st Gen front suspension


2nd Gen front suspension

 

This is all so mechanical...

haha but thanks for pointing out the differences. Gives the mechanically inclined individuals of this thread get a better feel if these will work or not.

 

fingers crossed for you guys....

 

Sorry guys.. I've been really busy.
I hope to give this another go this weekend, although I have to admit... I had my finger on the order button for a set of Eibachs today.
These are gonna cost a fortune and although coils trump springs every day of the week, I have to admit that the easy route was very very tempting today.

We'll see where I end up soon. I want a drop THIS year... not next.

 

I forwarded those pics to BC Racing.
Ian, thanks a bunch for those. It's knowledgeable guys like you that help Wes and I part with our hard earned money so quickly and so often.
