Si Suspension

Postby Syorme on Sun May 01, 2005 2:28 am

Fitted new rear sus on my Si. now theres 2 things bugging me the passenger side sits higher than the drivers side. also the passenger side is scrapping when ever i go over bumps. is there anyway i can stop it scrapping (without the sarcastic stop going over bumps) my wheels are 195/45/16 and i'm thinking of getting 40 profile tyres to see if that helps.

any other ideas of what i can do

cheers peeps

i have just fitted a spax kit to the rear of my car, and i have the same problem where it sits higher on passenger than on driver side. i've asked this question on here and they thought that it just needed to settle, or the springs weren't in the cups properly.

as for scraping, where is it scraping? - on the arch or against the sus. if it's the sus, then just get some spacers, if it's the arch then you'll probably have to trim them.

It's scrapping on the arch i think. already got spacers on so doubt it will be on the sus.
