No it must be something else than just adjust the suspension..

Oldskull showed me at the garage when we were doing Mux's suspension. His left wheel is more outwards than his right wheel. As its an other offset. Maybe banpei is right and it has an other control arm....

guys thanks for reply,

@apolan: I think it could be spring or maybe what banpei mention also can be the problem.

@banpei: I had searched on this forum but found out only Ivan got the same problem once, but so sad to me its no solved mention in his thread.

@CircuitFreak: Yeah I hope we can found the right one for both front right and left. Its not much diffrent but still Tongue Anyway its no need to do now, and good news for you I would pay for those shocks and give me till this weekend ok Thumbs up!

@DJexor: Yeah you have seen that, now I think the same what banpei mean. I would do another appointment with Mux soon Tongue

No problem. Thumbs up!
I didnt notice any differences in your control arms when i was doing your front suspension but maybe i overlooked something. Dumb question

You think you have less grip but still call it an upgrade? Sometimes your seat of the pants feeling is right you know.. How are the koni's set? With your springrates, relatively fresh koni's should be at full soft.

NoHachi,

You should have seen the state of his old shocks, anything would have been an upgrade compared to those Big Grin

Also seat of the pants can fool you if the odo suddenly reads alot higher then it used to Smile

But you are right, good chance we put the koni's to stiff compared to the spring rates Ibrahim has.

Yeah I still call it an upgrade because about loosing grip I dont said that I am sure about it, I just feel or something like that... this mean I am not sure at all because I never drive the car with this kind of setting before Tongue . What I am sure is the car drive better than before and feel much diffrent (in good way of course). I need to drive the car more to makesure about it.

About the springs rate, dont ask me... I am too dumb to know about that Banging head
But we do set the koni shocks not soft and also not hard Thumbs up!

Sometime ago we just installed Koni Sport Yellow shocks under my car and after drove the car few times I am not really feel comfy with jumping car, so few weeks ago I installed Tokico blues shock on the rear. Right know I already drove my car few times in different area/street and its quite more nicer and less jumping.

Should I install front side too? Any advise?

Thanks in advance
