i looked at my car today and i noticed that my rear wheels have no gap. but my front has a 1 finger gap.. now does that mean my shocks are shot?
they are riding on the bump guards i think... cause there is no movement in my rear...

i have neuspeed sport springs on a sedan

Are they neuspeeds for a sedan or for a coupe? i think you have to cut something on the neuspeeds so they fit the sedan properly. How long have you had them on there? If you carry lots of stuff (especially audio stuff) in the rear then the shocks might have blown but I doubt it. Usually the fronts blow first. VNlilman should know since he is the neuspeed spring expert.

3 THINGS.

1.How long have you had them on your car?
2.How many Miles total have you put on your shocks/struts?
3.Do both sides have no gap?


I have ALWAYS refused to use neuspeed because they sag after a while, numerous people have had the same problem.

VNlilMAN, this is why i say Neuspeed is [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

i had mine for a year still no sagging. my friend had his for 3 still the same..
its possible that you got the coupe springs..
a system in the trunk definitely makes a difference..
you cant even push down on the rear? then ya your riding on the bumpstops..

they are meant for the sedan, and im riding on stock shocks and the springs were on there for about 2 weeks now.. but the shocks have about 30k miles on it... both sides are like that

no boom boom system either... i guess i gotta redo my work.. along with my other thread.. maybe cause the front springs were installed upside down.. that will even things out... ill let you know after this weekend..

i dont think installing the front springs right side up is going to fix anything.
who did you get the springs from?
its possible you get badd springs...

well if it evens out.. it should be ok.. but im gonna get new shocks anyways.. if that doesnt solve the problem.. i can install spring spacers....

if you get koni's you can fix the height by adjusting the clip

The struts shouldnt affect ride height. If your struts were blown your ride would bounce and rebound alot, which goes against what you mention. I thought it was common for the Neuspeeds to be droopy in the rear? Maybe I'm thinking 1st gen Goldlines?
