Hopfully i put this in the right place
Installed the kit about two weeks ago replacing my standard dampers/lowering springs. I use my Pulsar every day since install put around 400 miles on them playing around with different damper settings and ride heights.
Review: There is certainly enough thread on the coilover’s to slam the car to the floor, plus its easy to adjust the height as it uses a proper locking colliers, not like some of the cheap makes.
First impression: Certainly get better feed back through the steering wheel noticing every bump and limits of the tyres, with the dampening set very high its like a go kart setup very little forgiveness on the road. Currently I’ve set it to 5/32 on the front and 2/32 on back I find this acceptable for speed bumps, pot holes, nasty B roads, its not jarring at all but still offers good performance.
Spec:
32 way damper adjustment
5k spring rate front
4k spring rear
Install Guide:
Tools required:
Axle Stand
Jack
Breaker bar
12mm, 21mm, 17mm, 14mm socket
12mm, 14mm, 17mm Spanner
WD40
After jacking the car up, and taking the wheel off take the two bolts connecting the hub to the suspension with the 17mm socket and spanner.
Use the 14mm socket to undo the drop link.
After that you have the 3, 12mm nuts at top in the turret, after those you can remove the hole thing. Remember to remove the clip and hooks holding the brake lines.
Tip for refitting I used a hydraulic jack to bring the hub inline with the coilovers make it less stressful when fitting by your self.
It took me around 5 hours that’s with hangover and several tea stops
If any one has any questions let me know.
