In Topic: Custom coil springs

26 June 2010 - 01:43 AM

Has anyone found a solution of the camber and toe problems these cars have when the rear is lowered?

I'm running with a cut stock spring, prolly about half a coil. Even with that little of a drop ,I have negative camber and toe problems. Any lower and the toe would murder 220 tires. The rear end design is very poor in terms of adjustments. The thing I would really like is a larger toe eccentric bolt.

Lowering the front is 1000 times easier, Koni Sports really woke it up. I'm trying to get my hands on some evo 8 bilsteins for the rear.

My bad, but your very close

342.0
13.465

I've tried for a while to find a rear lowering spring.

I'm thinking about a ground control set up with Koni yellows for the front.

For the rear I'm thinking about welding the pocket on the rear arms and designing a rear coilover style spring and Evo MR Bilsteins. I'm just going off what this guy said,

The rear end on these cars are kinda retarded, Its funny because I'm a member of about 9 different forums just looking for info on these little vans.

The front is a little more tricky, I'm better off scanning it
