just wondering what its not dampering properly?? or do i need to set the tops for it to work?

Ive just got konis to along with a work mate and thay are huge.

If you can pull the shock out and in with no jurky movement there ok.

Just fitted mine and am delighted [img]/smile.gif[/img]

How did you get on ?

Ps the nut doesnt seem to go on to far on the strut top, is it the same with you ?

**Cheater2k** · by **Cheater2k** » Sat Oct 08, 2005 6:59 pm

yeah, the nut doesnt go on loads

although for some reaosn on the front, once side sits a little higher??

im just hoping setting them all to soft, then let them settle as at the moment all 4 could be different.

All for are the same height as they were before (-30mm) but i have mine set to hard [img]/smile.gif[/img] and boy is it hard.

**Cheater2k** · by **Cheater2k** » Sat Oct 08, 2005 11:31 pm

mines all on soft and its still wrong, ive also tried it on hard, only thing i can think of is it must be the springs.

**AndiSe5** · by **AndiSe5** » Sat Oct 08, 2005 11:43 pm

Surly they cant be sat rite in the cups etc. Strange though.

There is a specific way you must sit the spring on the top that it shows in the hayns.

ive done all right mate, its sat in all the right groves, and where the old springs was (my old shocks are really ****ed to (leaking oil) so i cant even fit those )

put konis on yesterday and the mechanic(part time rally driver) took my car for a couple of laps around morrisons supermarket, the store is sorrounded by a 1 way road with chicanes tight corners and a hairpin. i had never heard my car or seen it being driven before never want to again but setting 2 turns on the front and 2.5 on the back is as good base setting

as every one has this problem, why dont every one complain to the manufactures? plus all kits should come with camber correction kits, esp for the 4x4, what about using those well expensive coilovers? any one fitted those? results?

**Cheater2k** · by **Cheater2k** » Mon Oct 24, 2005 9:03 am

true, but there doing there job right, its lowering the car and improving handleing, there not arsed about tyres and wot not

**akuma** · by **akuma** » Mon Oct 24, 2005 1:29 pm

but if every one started returning their products they would have to take note. and as all money loving companies go. they'd do anything to make money on it.

" the new and improved lowering kit for the calibra, same as the old one. but with the adjustments we should of done in the first place
yours for only!
