Megan coilovers- installation/dampening question

Hey guys

before i installed the coilovers, someone played with the dampening settings… :evil: now i’m not sure what the stock dampening was originally set to…this is a problem because i heard u have to break them in …

So Am i supposed to let the coilovers break in at the dampening they were originally set to (which i have no idea, what they were), or just throw them on adjust them and drive …

thanks

don u just have to turn them to the softest setting for teh run in???

I have these installed on my s13 hatch, and when i installed them i had made sure all four corners were dialed in at the same damping setting, then bolted them into the car. After ripping around for a little while, i would get out and change the settings around, either all the same, but different setting than they were installed at, or a little bit different in the front than the rear. So, I wouldnt worry about a “default” setting being all the same right out of the box before installing them, just make sure they are all set to the same when going for your first rip, then make the necessary changes from then on.

hrm alright, so do they need to be broken in at all, or should i just rape them asap heh … ? :twisted:

Well, I’m sure they would hold up to an instant beating, but I played it safe for the first few hundred kms by taking it easy and gradually working them in.
