Title: rear adjustable suspension....
Post by: DazVR6 on 23 January 2008, 13:36

Just braught my vr and it was already lowered (think 60/40) but the rear has adjustable ride height. Now ive put my 17's on and there seems to be some rubbing/catching when driving and turning, i was thinking of loweering the back abit so that it might help take abit of pressure off the front as currently my car has a slightly nose down stance.

Anyone think this would work?

if ther coilovers mate they can be adjusted with a "C" spanner

just take the wheel off and undo the locking nut then wind them up or down

No not coilovers, shocks and springs.

they will have adjustable spring plates... you need to remove the shocks and refit the spring plates (upside down on my old ones to give 15-20 mm more lowering...)

previous owner told me it was just  a case of undoing a nut, so i guess this is not possible...?
