Koni Yellow Perch Help

[nate'sCB7]

Im really looking to get some suggestions as to what perch to sit on.

Plan:
Koni Yellows
Neuspeed Race Springs
Wheels: 17x7.5 +35
Tires: 205/45/17

Given with the provided info, what would your guys' suggestions be for the perch setting?

Lowest.


Your springs arent really that much of a drop, so I would go for the extra bit.

neuspeed sports drop it at an advertised 2.20" in the front and 2.0" in the back. i cant say which perch to put them on but id guess in the middle at first just to see where it settles in and then go from there.

That's the Neuspeed Race springs that drop the car that much, not the Sports.

Do you happen to remember what size tires you had on your 17's?

Put the yellows on the lowest perch. It looks tits and it still isn't that low honestly. Its approaching race-level low, but not that bad. Expect a good amount of uca smacking with a camber kit though.

I have H&R Race and my Konis on the lowest... I actually want to raise it, because it's too low. And I don't care for the saggy-looking rear wheel gap.

I used to have H&R Sport springs, and the gap was perfect on KYB AGX... the shocks just sucked for those springs.

gah i overlooked this post and rushed on installing my springs and struts! Now i have to redo the front ones and set them at the lowest perch.

Can you used snap ring pliers on these rings??

You can, but I just use a small flat screwdriver to pry the rings out of the groove

Most likely. If you have manual spring compressors, you can compress the spring just enough to take load off the perch, then move the snap ring. This is more difficult, but will save you some time if you can pull it off.
