Subaru Legacy bl/bp coil overs/adjustable suspension

Recommended Posts

If your not wanting to go extremely low i have a set of yellowspeed coil overs which id recomend, for the money they are actually REALLY comfortable and not bouncy at all! Infact id probably go as far as saying they are less harsh then bilsteins but firmer. Id definitely buy them again which suprised even me who used to run fortune auto in previous cars

Honestly you're probably better off just changing the springs on the factory struts. Adjusties are a pain in the arse, by the time you consider stuff like the cost of buying them, the cost of a cert, probable increase in insurance costs, and the fact that unless you get really good ones they don't tend to last anywhere near as long as an OEM strut and half the time rebuilding them is a complete crap-shoot.

Totally agree.

 

Do you have factory bilsteins?

Do it properly with factory bilsteins and you will have no problems.When you put a lowering spring on a factory shock you shorten the available compression stroke or travel of the piston shaft.This also reduces the efficiency of the shock.You either shorten the shock shaft or if you are replacing a shock in a strut you mount the shock body lower in the strut body.Best to go talk to a good suspension guy.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
