Default Need help for Kg/mm springs!

First off thanks to Ahhvtec for getting my lip in time and installing it yesterday and pointing out that my springs may be on backwards . Yes I know you all think I'm dumb, but I did it two at a time so if I did do it wron then it was the box that was labeled wrong.

I need pictures of the front springs and the rear springs. I am gonna try and match up the look and see if everything was done right. Me and Duc thought my rear dropped too low from the front and so on. Please help out So. Cali or any S owner/enthusiast. Thanks in advane for any and all help.

lol i thought i did the same when i had those springs on too. it will be really hard to tell with them on the car, but the fronts should be a tad longer than the rears. good luck.

Yeah, but the damn race springs should have sat lower. Haha, shut up Stu, so I "might" have messed up. hahah, if I did then damn imma be pissed. Club Benji's is not gonna be possible and Century is just off my list like Highlands for a while.

Nathan had his on backwards and the back sat lower too. Handling went to hell also. Hopefully you have it right and they will soon settle. The back end is noticeably lower though.

Thanks, hahah. I've been stressing it. I sent you the PM so you probably get and idea that these springs settle in the front slower. I hope.

I'm not sure about the race springs but the supersports looked almost exactly alike. Even the lengths were almost the same. Very, very minimal difference in length. Also, did you preload the suspension before torquing all the bolts?

Good luck.
