So, do you use the upper or lower rear strut spring seat? I have read that I should use the lower one to have an equal drop as the fronts, but my exhaust knocks on the axle (badly) on the lower seat. Ive got them on the upper one now, exhaust only knocks on big bumps, but the car seems to dive onto the nose and understeer more in hard cornering. Should I:
1. Leave it (free, no effort)
2. Drop it and put up with the exhaust knocking (free, some effort, annoying),
3. Drop it, and get a new pipe done by a different muffler place to join the rear and suitcase (best choice, but prolly cost a couple hunge)
Also, what damper setting are you using? Ive got my rears set at about 3/4 turn down from hardest, and fronts about 1 1/2 turns from hardest (2 turns total on both front and rear). I made the fronts softer to try and dial out some understeer. My car handled heaps better with konis only in the rear, and knackered KYBs in the front. I thought that putting the yellows in the front would have improved handling, but I don't think it has :???: How should I set them up? Car is a VR6 with Eibach springs.
