you never learn....... ::)

They'res nothing wrong with them.

Going with a kyb agx and coilover sleeve setup on my friend's integra. We're running his sleeves now at full ride height on stock struts (2.5" lowering at full height!). He's doing the auto x thing. I'm doing drifting/gymkahna at auto x regardless if they're timing the ---- or not. Our suspensions fit what we're doing with our cars.

Learn? Learn?

How bout you learn my dick in my ass....oh wait. That wasn't quite right. Oh well. I tried to figure out a witty comeback.

I guess i'm another dumb slideboi that the rest of the motorsports scene hates on.

HMT is the wrong place to ask questions if you can't deal with the possibility of an answer you don't want to hear.

HT and RX7 forum members will be more than happy to pat you on the back, congratulate you on your baller JDM tyte suspension.
that is the response you were looking for in this thread. When you didn't get it you made excuses to justify your own actions and thought process.
Don't waste peoples time by asking for advice on a decision in which you obviously had already made up your mind.

No, see that's what i get for comming on a forum where most people's cars only go in a straight line and most run on blown shocks with lowering springs........ Who cares when you've got 400 whp in your fwd econo shitbox and can beat an sti!?!?!?!

Re: JIC magic FLT-a2 coilovers for $500?
 

You didn't read the link I posted, guy's won SCCA classes on the national level and he explicitly mentions JIC as a purveyor of poorly designed ----. Exactly NONE of the dampening he discusses has any relevancy to straight line dampening for us drag racers. Get your head out of your ass, fool.

It's so faaaar up there i can smell my prostate.

I rolled the dice. I dont regret it. I had roughly $3500 to work with and ALOT of ground to cover on several aspects of the car. That about sums it up.

I love when people ask for advice, and then argue with JD.. ------- wanker

the rest is tl;dr

This thread is disgusting:

"Let me make this as clear as I possibly can: THE ADJUSTERS ON YOUR SHOCKS ALMOST CERTAINLY DO NOT DO WHAT YOU THINK THEY DO. Unless you have something high-end, like a Penske, and you've taken the time to clock the adjuster window on the shock dyno, the knobs on your shocks cannot be trusted to work. Most shocks of the same model DO NOT match each other on the same adjuster setting, and each click DOES NOT make the same change in force. Most shocks make very large changes per click near the "full hard" setting and make very little to no change near the "full soft" setting."

1. So the adjusters don't do what I think they do, and yet he never explains what they actually do.
2. They adjustments aren't linear. Who gives a flying ---- if they are linear? That's why ---- is measured in "clicks" and not some quantifiable unit.

"Happy Fun Fact: Formula One cars use non-adjustable shocks. They get away with this by running the car on a seven-post shaker rig that plays back suspension movements recorded previously on that track, using the data the collect on the rig to tune the shocks, and once the shocks are tuned, those are the shock forces they use at the race. Once they're right, they're right."

This would lead me to believe that unless you have a "seven-post shaker rig that plays back suspension movements recorded previously on that track" adjustable shocks are the next best thing?
