WHOA!!

Nice...maybe there's hope for our cars yet[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Won't these things act like coilovers since you have an adjustable perch that the springs sit on?

TOOLOWCIVIC · 05-24-2002

Will the ride be bouncy?

TOOLOWCIVIC · 05-24-2002

Will it ride better than with the Konis?

Silver2k1Dood · 05-24-2002

I had "shorty" dampers and springs on my old Jetta: Eibach springs and Spax dampers...the ride was actually better than stock: no body lean, no bouncyness, just firm and controlled

I'd venture to say, w/o having tried them of course, that these are probably the best solution yet for our cars...especially since 7th gen civics are lighter than most similar size cars.

so how do we get them who do we email / talk to?

i wanna see the warrantee and all that

droping my car is the next task so i'm saving up as we speak.....hook me up with some more info on those

Silver2k1Dood · 05-25-2002

HeRbaLuS, you should check out the thread link in the very first post...Strutwizard answers a lot of questions and explains the merits of the shorty struts vs. stock ones w/ lowering springs

nookiemonster · 05-25-2002

I think I got in a little late on this. Is this a new adjustable from "strutwizard" I guess? Will these be compatible with ground controls?

strutwizard · 05-25-2002

Yes, THis is a new shortened ride height adjustable coilover that uses most standard lowering springs.

Slip on sleeve kits are not required with this system.

<< Won't these things act like coilovers since you have an adjustable perch that the springs sit on? >>

Yes, they do act just like true coilovers not the slip on sleeve type.

HeRbaLuS · 05-25-2002

hmm so how low can u go without blowing them??

strutwizard · 05-25-2002

<< Will the ride be bouncy? >>

Ride quality is one of the main reason that I design shortened ride height adjustable struts because lowered cars don't have to ride like "Tanks"

Lower center of gravity and increase spring rate and up-graded valving equate to smooth ride and greatly improved handling.
