    How low do you guys have your cars?
    What angle is the control arms facing from the centre bushes? Upwards or downwards?

    Are you refering to the cars centre of gravity?

    Nope, I'm referring to suspension geometry. Some suspension components work alot better at various angles. When lowered, those angles can/do have a negetive effect.

    Yes. When I put adjustable spring platforms into my 260Z I had to drill and reposition the lower control arm on the crossmember to bring the suspension back into correct geometry. Technically you don't HAVE to do it, but for the suspension to perform optimally it's good to ensure the geometry is correct after mods

    You can also use roll center adjuster (spacers), I had some on my 180B like these Techno Toy Tuning - Your performance parts source for the old school cool!

    Went to adjust the rears dampers,but struggled to find the adjuster...bring out the iPhone...

    Left


    Right


    It was pretty tight, but you can reach them.

    I've set the fronts to 15/30. I'm trialling the rears on full soft for a while.

    Yeah hatches are always fun to adjust... Not! ALways hidden behind the interior plastic panels.

    I give it 24-48 hours before you return the rear shcok settings back to match the fronts. Enjoy the bounce and mid corner wobbles in the rear.

    Yeah just a trial. I was finding it a little jittery in the rear. Need to find the sweet spot. It was 20/30 (hard).

    Yes, I have the tow bar. A bit redundant now. But good for resale I guess.

    Yeah just keep pluging away at it. You'll find a good combo soon.

    I remember it taking me 2-3 months to do mine, various motorkhanas and skidpan days with some touge runs before I found a happy medium. This was 5-6 years ago when I first delved into coilovers. Now I takes me about a week to get things right. Depending on the car's owner whether they allow me to drive it or not. If I drive it, quick and easy fix. If I don't drive it, and they give me retarded feedback, then maybe a month.

    I'm guessing it's the motoring equivalent of "it's broke"

    So I suspect it's stuff like "I don't like how it feels" and "it doesn't drive right"
