CA Stance Issues?

[XTCshri2222]

I dunno if it's my eibach's maybe deffective? I never had them on when I had my KA, my Eibach Sportlines seem to be as high as stock suspension. Is this because of the weight moved back behind the axle and the weight loss from the motor, and possible my silvia frontend? Even with a motor my car sits high like it has no motor, the rear sits perfect, only the front i have issue with. Any Ideas? The sport lines are 2" drop and i have about 3-4" wheel gap, it's big enough to fit dead bodies in. Any takes? or is it just to light to compress the coil and i need to get coilovers and set them as low as they can go and still prob have a 1" wheel gap?

Non popups are substantially lighter....so is using no bumper support, fiberglass fenders/bumpers, carbonfiber hood, relocated battery, etc. Not sure how many of those you have.

ps. "Stolen" has one "L".

I've got a silvia front end and a CA and it makes the front of my car sit pretty high as well. I was hoping the cheap sportlines I got would fix it, but you've got me worried it won't work. Thanks, thanks a lot.

Well i got:Silvia frontfiberglass fendersno A/CBattery relocate to trunkno bumper support

I pretty much got all the weight possible off the front, all but the carbon hood.

I'm so tempted to cut the eibachs, I love the way eibachs rides, but I know if i cut it i'll prob kill the progressive spring ratio. but i'm gettin despirate.

well i was doin the same as you got them on and put the car back on the ground and went

What you think would happen with this eibachs if i cut the bottom coil off?

Yeah man that's your problem.

For a few weeks after I installed my CA I was still on stock suspension and I could hardly notice a difference when looking at wheel gap from when the engine was out.

It's a freakin light motor, plus on top of that you've eliminated ac and pop ups...

You're only option now is toget some coils and slam that bish!

Just get a fat guy to sit on the hood whenever you drive anywhere.

The spring would likely jump out of the lower seat when turning. I dont recommend cutting springs on anything other than Honduhs, but i cut the stock springs on my fastback and had to park it until my Megan springs came in.
