spoolinturbo Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 yea those do-lucks look sooooo effin good on that car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Venable Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 (edited) looks like he might need a little bit of camber to bring the tire back into the fenders. but those wheels look GOOD as usual. What's the difference from on side to the other, driver's side looks to be more flush, rather than hella poke? one of his other sets of wheels?

Project83 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Perfect amount of stretch on the tires in my opinion, and the wheels just look Awesome period. Those 18's or 19's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dem0ntsi Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 It took us 2 weeks, 25+ trips to the hardware/auto parts store, several phone calls to D Venable, a sunburn on Nick, and a ton of sweat to put those dang coilovers on, Im very dissappointed in how the rears sit and thats as low as they seem to go. I was hoping to get it really low then go to the big Import Alliance meet next weekend but I may just have to wait till next year and finish the car first. Hopefully those D2 coilovers will let me go lower. A big thanks to Nick for doing pretty much all the work while I just watched hahahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we were just doing a test fit on one side to figure out the ride height and spacer, the drivers side are the 17s. Thanks for your help on this dude, if you are in Nashville Ill buy you a beer Now I know exactly what specs my next custom set of rims are going to be.

D_Venable Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Cosmo coilovers, right? dual spring or single? if dual, just toss the little one, it's not really needed and will allow you to go lower. And no problem on the help, I'm just glad I was able to Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why mine is so high in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know for a fact that my Cosmos did and were lower then that, But with them that low I had like ZERO suspension travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fronts low enough but like you said, zero travel so any hole in the road sounds like a gunshot inside the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will tell you one thing is that I LOVE my Mookeeh coils. The ride is great and I can go as low as I want with full shock travel. Plus I can adjust dampaning and stiffness. I still need to work on tweaking things a bit because there has been a few times where my lips of my wheels have hit the fenders For realzies tho my Mookeeh's were the best thing Ive bought for a car. Good suspension is #1 in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallblock12 Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Just do the mr2 conversion like I've got on my car. I can go as low as needed. I'm running single spring cosmos as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOOSTED88tsi Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 yeah you need to shorten the housings on those things. No camber plates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwbrocloud Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Throw the Big Brake kit on the front with the 13" drilled and slotted rotors on there and you'll be stellar mate. jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 car looks sick dude. Very jelous, well not as much as I used to be...but.. lol. Keep the driver side specs, its done oh so well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem0ntsi Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 yeah you need to shorten the housings on those things. No camber plates? No tools to do all that lol, this was done in the parking lot of the complex where I live. No camber plates. I see now Mookeeh is offering the shortened strut housings and shortened peformance front inserts. Im thinking just go with the D2s when they become available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
