I don't know where you learned that ride height doesn't affect caster, but it definitely does.
Just picture the pivot point of the top of the shock and the pivot point of the control arm distance getting closer (when you lower it.. it gets closer to each other), that means if you already have a...
Most cars will not have the same alignment specs between driver and passenger side, even ride height is different from the factory between driver and passenger side. I have never seen caster being exactly the same, a lot of standard alignment shops wont even touch caster. You have to take an...
Did the alignment shop enter your car information into the alignment machine? The reason why I ask is because the range of the rear camber to be within spec seems like a huge spread. -.6 to -2.1...
From my experience, shortened tire life from camber wear happens with toe being off. As long as...
No complications at all, the cars are essentially the same except for the electronically controlled shocks. What swift did was design it based around the valving on the sport mode of the SI and made sure it works with the sport hatch shocks. They have done their own testing on the hatch before...
No camber kit
Haven't aligned yet.
Did not modify the bumpstops. (based on recommendation by Swift)
I will wait about 2 weeks before I align it, and when I do I will get the proper alignment arms.
Purchased a set of the Spec R springs part number
4H918R onto the Sports Hatch.
Went through a pretty hefty install over the weekend, with all the goodies I've purchased over the last few weeks. I had a set of wheels sitting, that I didnt want to install until I lowered the car. Did some other...
I have a sport hatch was going to wait for someone else to test it, but apparently they are already running low on stock so, I had to get myself a set, should work out well.
You definitely smell it more, but I only experience the smell from outside of the car. The smell does not bother me at all when I am driving. Its how loud it is with the catless dp.
The exhaust alone without the downpipe was like stock at idle, and had a really quiet and pleasant sound. The...
Just installed a catless downpipe on the car, and holy crap its loud. I will post up a video, but I am going to have to either put the stock car back in, or get a catted dp. I will post pictures of install and everything shortly. People werent kidding about the catless dp.
I might do a quick...
Insane, just fight every ticket. But from what I know we have always had strict exhaust regulations, and it hasnt changed. Some youtube video popped up and went viral. I could be wrong.
Yes this is one of few exhausts that are actually made in Japan. Even companies like Greddy is now made in Taiwan. Not saying one is better than the other considering the Greddy exhaust is also nicely made and that was going to be my next option, but I have always been a fan of Japanese...
Since I dont see a lot of guys running this exhaust I figured I would post up my quick thoughts and some pictures of the exhaust on the car.
My hunt for an exhaust had been a little bit exhausting. A lot of what I have seen on the market especially once mounted on the car looks almost oem with...
I have been a little afraid to purchase these. The reason being I heard that these sprays harden like ceramic coat, and like ceramic coat, if you do not have your car completely detailed, they will lock the swirls and scratches underneath the hardened spray coating.
Can anyone that's used this...
Maybe Ill create a review thread on it in the future. But yeah this stuff is literally the best if you like detailing your car.
Ceramic coat will obviously outlast wax, but to me it takes out that special time I get to spend with my cars. lol
Im new here, and Im not a professional detailer. I do enjoy detailing my cars
I went through and purchased every wax that claimed long lasting, and tested everything I can find, everything from Meguiars and mothers to collinite and nufinish . Since this thread asked which is the longest lasting...
