Strict but fair cop. Got defect notice but no fine. Too low too stiff, bride and nardi.. need rwc

[Oxer]

no such thing as too stiff.

fucking wankers.

[TRaNz]

too stiff? how did he check that? wut, he started to push down on your car to see if the shock absorbers work or some shit?

[Oxer]

if stiffening suspension is illegal, then why do companies like pedders sell and install stiffer suspension? Why are light commercials allowed to have stiffer suspension? Where is the actual law that says you cant do these things?

There isnt.

I run 10/8k springs in a 940kg mac strut car and 10mm droop in the rear hahaha

Yeah he was driving behind me for a while hit a few bumps as you do in the westside burbs.. my car doesn't bounce though. Very good street/track setup I took a lot of time refining... mehs...


I got of easy tbh so im not cut. Just a hassle. No fines.

[Dudermagee]

that whole anti-hoon shit over there blows my fucking mind

[AccordEuro]

Can you adjust it more lower Jack? or is that the lowest when its all aired out?

The struts are actually at max low AND the wheels rest on the top of the arches.

Im going to swap the front 215/45's for some 205/40's to get some more low in the, and the rears will go to 215/40's if I can find a set to keep profile the same.

So once they are swapped, it should be touching the ground, if not, it will be >5mm.

fucking wankers.

And true, technically they cant get you for 'stiffness'

What they would have got you for is 'suspension travel distance must meet at least X amont,' so it IS a law, but like them all, another bullshit rule to just make cash. :'(

Long time coming...

Hope you get it all fixed man!

Why don't you run two different profiles to help your fitment LOLOLOL

[TRaNz]

Oooops.

its 2/3rds of the original suspension travel, which all aftermarket coilovers meet.
