Awesome video!! Need help on an information hard to find. I'm looking to raise my MX5 NC that has Flex Z's installed, currently at lowest setting. I know how to do it but the trick question is what is the minimum insertion I need to keep in the lower mount? I don't seem to have a lot of range, but can I have only 1/4 in or 1/2 inch?
Is it normal for the rear Coilovers to drop in height after driving the car? Mine keep dropping, not sure if my mechanic is setting it up the wrong way or what’s happening…
@@TeslaSoCal they do settle a good half inch since the time they are new. Suspension bushings should also be torqued under load. It can be attributed to wither of those or both. We always notify our clients up front of this and that suspension height needs to be reset once the springs have settled and a second alignment.
@@zevcentric last time both my end links snapped because they set the height too low. Now they have set the height too high but the height is still sinking on the back left ? Is that typical after several thousand miles or do you think there might be another culprit?
Not sure. It's gonna be quite low though and the rear spring perch isn't even set. We always change it right out of the box to our own values. If you purchase from us and give us an idea where you want the car to be we can share those values.
@@zevcentric I bought a set of used ones which the previous owner purchased them from you guys. I have a 2022 M3P and just looking for a mild drop. Not too low as there are a lot of hills and inclines where I live. Thanks for the valuable information!
@zevcentric Is the preload measurement ~245mm accurate for the RWD cars as well? I noticed the reference values are a bit different in the manual. I asked Tein and they said preload should be set close to zero but that setting doesn't work well.
@@stevenhendler3064 in the manual/booklet there are diagrams and measurements for setting preload. They have values A-D and a hunch of pictures for you to match your design of coilover with.
Totally different price points tbh. A lot depends on your desired ride heights and so forth. Can't really make a blanket statement. The MPP adjustables are stainless steel so they will withstand winters better for example.
@@zevcentric Really just looking to get a better quality ride over stock LR suspension with a slight lowered stance to fill the gap with 275/40/20 on with 15mm spacers all around. your thoughts?
