 Anybody dropped on these? Looking for some input on them. I want to be able to slam my car for shows and stuff but still also want to be able to raise them back up to tuck by like 1/2 a finger for daily driving. I'm looking for info on ride quality (please mention your setting like height, dampening, etc). I've also read some threads regarding the rear springs binding when you slam the car as well as some mentioning rear knocking. Please also list the springs you're running in the rear if you know what they are. (62.130.05, 62.135.06, 62.135.08, 62.135.10)

Thanks!

From what I've read there are 32 Levels of Adjustment:
1-8: Suggested for track use.
9-16: Suggested for mountain/ aggressive use.
17-32: Suggested for common street use.

When I was getting my stechs put on this kid with a supra was putting on the megan racing coilovers you want. Dont know what his adjustments were, probably 17-32 but the drop was hot.

 Yup, looking for max drop figures mainly though. It's been pretty mixed reviews and feedback on them due to the spring rates on the original batch.

 I believe the Megans have pillow ball mounts

 Blah, I was in the middle of writing a response yesterday and looks like I never posted it and closed my browser.

I am.

Raising / lower can be quite a bit of work. You will need to raise your car, remove your tires, and adjust height manually with included tools for adjustment nuts. I keep my car slammed.

Lowest damper settings (track) and lowest height. You can actually make your car lower than suggested if you compress the springs more. The ride will be harsh. I feel almost every single minor bump. Pot holes are scary sounding.

Yes, at first there wasn't much knocking. There is quite a bit of knocking if you are going over bumps, and I believe I hear it only from the rears. I haven't seen any issues or damage on the coilovers due to this though, the knocking noise can get a little annoying.

Not sure. Is it possible to order new springs from Megan for these coilovers? I imagine replacing them (VERY easy to replace the springs, I took mine out as one of my damper adjustors got stuck after some harsh driving) may make the ride comfortable for a while again.



Hello guys I am new here and am looking for friends
