Coilovers Day #2

[nyknick1015]

So what ever you guys know i got coilovers from accordboi, the apexi WS...

Quite frankly... im a bit annoyed with them but its only day #2 so im not selling them or anything yet. First i messed up on the springs, put the 10k in the rear and 6k in the front by accident... So thats a on my part... i Kept bangin my oil pan first ride around. So ok fixed that and it was very good ride around till i hear WOBBLE WOBBLE CLANK CLANK... it makes little noises here and there which is ok so i just turn up the music so i dont have 2 hear it. Also i tried slamming it and couldnt move much with out destroying something. Ran over a plastic bag by mistake and it got caught up on the header and is burning its way off... so slammed accord is out but def significantly lower.

And driving 2hours on the highway 2day was kinda annoying as well being that i felt a significant amount of bumps... (NY highways are kinda crappy)

I dunno i guess im comparing it to springs too much and im kinda thinkin about going back to springs... im gonna wait it out a but to see if i change my mind. im also contemplating on selling the car to my sister, parting out and looking for something with some style or professional being that im getting older...

The upside... MY CAR IS PERTY....

Coil overs are significantly more aggressive... and transfer quite a bit more road feel to the driver. I have the 12k front, 10k back. It is a rough ride, but I do not like the way that springs can feel so floaty, or spongy.

i did notice that last nite when i was driving... my front felt real spongy and kept on floating like i had a blown strut but it wasnt... i dunno, im gonna drive around 2day and get a feel for it... prolly has to be broken in...
