ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      Custom shocks, springs, camber control....what a headache. Why not keep the car at stock height and just stiffen it up? That should be adequate. Bilstein or Koni shocks. Something you can crank the rebound up on. Get a tall spring in the rate you want from Eibach or Hypercoil.
      There are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!

          Thread's not old yet...

          Koni advertises the STR.Ts as OEM replacements that also compliment lowering springs. So they're good if you want to keep stock ride height (stock-height springs will keep you there), and I'd imagine that's damn near where they max out in terms of stroke expansion.

            Sounds like a plan but I dont see how it is a stiffer rate... I am talking about this.

            Why would you stiffen it if it is not going to be modded for use on smoothly paved roads?

                  I went on Honda-tech.com and some one started a cb7 rally build and the guy mentioned using hyundai senota suspention, he clames it provides 4 inches of lift

                    I agree here. Lots of subaru folks are doing this, easy lift option here.

                          I put 225/50/17 tires on my old cb w/ stock suspension, looked like the cb monster truck. Had to grind 1/8 inch off the tear upper controll arms and roll the fenders to get them to fit, but it went great in the snow.
