No, those are the correct coilovers. Don't forget that the front coilover mounting brackets are different sizes from s13/s14, and I'm pretty sure the rears are different diameter holes too. So s13 coilovers wouldn't fit on the get-go. Someone else ran into the same problem on zilvia, but it isn't really a problem Also, make sure your springs has some preload and everything is super tight.

 

So I need preload? Ugh... I really shoulda done more research before I put them on. In all actuallity, their S15 coilovers apparently they're interchangeable. I'm gunna give Max a call so they can help me with my noobness.

^^^good god, why wouldn't you just order the ones for your car?

 

They're the same, apparently. so MAX sells them as s14 ones in the states

 

Well if the rears are only gonna go that high you ought to slam the front too. God that is rediculously low for being the highest setting.

 

HELL YES

 

Lol I could barely get the jack from under my car as it is. I think another inch lower and I woulda got stuck hahahaha. But seriously, first time I set the rears about half height and when I put the wheels on I was tucked about 2 inches from the top of the rim. You could probably drop the rear to the floor.

But going too low is bad for the stock suspension right? What mods do I need to toss on in order not to hurt my other components?

 

RUCAS at least. But yeah, that is really gonna mess with your geometry. You should really call MAXX just to be sure about the height. P.S. lower it onto two pieces of a 2x4 (and park on them) when jacking it up and you'll be golden.

 

oh man being low is awesome but a pain too
I need to get super low ramps otherwise I have to used the stock car jack and raise it on the side, then use a regular jack to raised the front up.

Tow Hook all the way.

 

rucas, toe links and tie rods are pretty nessesary.

 

Props for making the G/F Tag along to the Auto X!!!
Do you make her help you work on the car too?

 

haha i love my tow hook. only way i can get it on stands.

 

Haha yeah it was hilarious. All the way up there she's like, "James you need to save your money and not just spend it all on your car, you don't need your 5speed right away"

As soon as I park the car after my first run she says "James, save your money you need to get 5 speed right away! Then proceedes to tell me that the next autox is the 21st and we need to go hahahahaha deffinatly got her hooked. Im tryin to talk her into gettin a miata lawl.


Whats all this nonsense about the tow hook?

 

sick man. Sounds like a cool girl!
please 5 speed that car soon!!!!
Its a pain in the butt, but driving would be funnnnnnnner

Tow Hook....its easier to jack the car from the Tow Hook when your car is lowered. lazy man style.

 

Damn, I would never ever trust the tow hook to lift the car from.
