So far everything I've seen about coilovers seems to emphasize the fact that they are adjustable for different tracks and track conditions. I hope someone can point me to a video about how to decide how to adjust them. What factors do you need to consider ? What do you look for on track that helps you decide how to adjust them. And is it easy to adjust coilovers during a track day? Another thing they didn't do or talk about was whether or not they needed to do an alignment after the coilovers were installed.

Blue 04 MX 5 before adjusting the suspension set up, you first need to have proper tires, tire pressure, good ride height, alignment and corner balance. KW for instance, they provide you a recommended setting. It’s usually a good starting point. To test if the set up is right for the track you are driving, you need to pay attention to the car behaviour during corner entry, mid corner, corner exit. If you get entry understeer/oversteer, then you need to adjust from compression and rear rebound (1 at a time), if you get exit understeer/oversteer, you need to adjust front rebound and rear compression (1 at a time too). In mid corner, it is then related to spring stiffness & anti-roll bar.

@jewelerzz

Blue 04 MX 5 everything is related to vehicle dynamics basically. And there are bunch of stuff to learn. For example, lowering a car can lower your center of gravity, but your roll center also drops at the same time. And it drops more than COG. That actually increase the distance between COG and roll center, which results more roll. Body roll is not a bad thing and does not affect load transfer, but it is bad for your alignment and aero drag.

Should've done a control test with stock suspension first. Regardless, I'm surprised with the results

I put Öhlins on my Evo X, the difference was incredible, my favorite mod out of pretty much almost anything performance related you can imagine on a 600 HP Evo Can’t remember what paid for them, $2200 I think, totally worth it. When you consider a 100 HP gain on the Evo would cost you triple that for all the parts and tuning, I’d recommend getting the coilovers as one of your first big mods since the benefit to handling will make you much less likely to accidentally wreck your car Actually, I ramped a ditch trying to avoid a deer and they held up fine and I still had just enough ground clearance to avoid damaging anything. Although, to be fair, I set my ride height a little higher than most people due to the crappy roads where I live

I love this series. Especially watching you living the dream of just bolting stuff onto cars and getting along with it. Here in Germany you‘d have a lot of problems with those eBay parts. For every modification you need to have the “TÜV” acknowledge and certify it with that very car. It’s expensive and without proper papers going with the parts you put in, which have to be specific to that very model of car, you won’t be able to get it certified and therefore couldn’t put it into your car (without losing insurance and basically be driving an “illegal” car). It’s so nice to see you guys just having that freedom of modification ✨

You should've done the same slalom course with the stock cars to see if either set of new coilovers did anything to improve the cars as they were. Would've been a nice way of comparing the cars to each other as well.

I was waiting for thisss

Great video, I really enjoyed the level of effort given to keep the cars evenly matched. I feel though the testing might have been a bit flawed. The true value of great suspension is its ability to keep the tire planted on the ground for consistent traction while cornering or accelerating. While the slalom course was a great choice for the testing, a slalom course with much wider longer corners with areas of uneven road would really allow the value of adjustable rebound and compression to really shine. Imagine, during a long high speed corner you encounter a bump. The suspensions ability to react to and get the tire back on the ground quickly while not upsetting the balance of the car makes the difference between losing a few inches off your line and meeting the outside wall. Round 2 please.

I can't wait till this show comes back

First, cool video. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Second. Would have been nice to see some sort of baseline done as well. Some track times or something.

The point of having that kind of suspension is to be able to go from street settings to track settings and back again in a day. I wonder if the difference in performance would have been greater with the right setup?

Imagine “super low”. Build them suckers ya self!

FYI, Anyone buying the cheap coilovers may consider upgrading the rear springs with a $200 12k rate option spring from BC or Megan (also Eibach makes a pair to order for reasonable money and allows you to keep the lower rate but have a longer spring). All options allow a normal ride, which is worth a lot of improvement to the ride and performance. But note the stiffer spring options may run the shock into the ground earlier than the basic Ebay offering.

I have KW V3's on my E39 M5 -2001 and they are amazing.

Exactly why I used Adblock

Coilovers make negligible differences in terms of speed from A to B, but they are critical when shaving time off a track and safety when you have a project car that's capable of pushing big numbers around that chicane. When you need that customization a high quality set like KW's or in my case D2's, is a must.

Cool video!😎 thanks for the info!

Looking at the size i was sure they got the green set for a Micra.

Would be nice to see how the original suspension held up against the coilovers.

Excelent info!!! Thanks for the advices , I'll make a better desicion in my car

just found ur channel i like these testing vids and need more cars wars like vids

I would get the EBay coilovers because I have a green 1975 Ford Pinto, so they would match the car.

Great series super interesting

I love how your videos have a strong eductional component. Great balance of edutainment going on here.

Great video guys 👍🏾 Would've loved to see slalom test with stock suspension. I think on a few cars with great suspension from factory (like an e46 m3) coilovers can actually reduce performance or overkill

I'd be curious to know how you thought the low ones compared to the stock ones

You should get a third 350 and keep it stock. Then run lap times to see how these upgrades compare. That way there’s a control group in these tests. Kind of like what Top Gear did with the Renault Avantime.

Thanks for this video as I am considering upgrading my 5th Gen Camaro

It's hard for me to see a lift as a "basic tool."

Hopefully your car came with a jack, which works just as well...

@@aaronjones356 Oh you say so, but having changed out a CV axle with a jack vs a lift, I can tell you, a lift SURE makes it easier. I noticed, since they had one available, they used that rather than the jack. And I bet if you're really honest, maneuvering a strut as tall as some of these are beneath the space you get with a jack would be pretty difficult and occasionally impossible.

@@brandoncheek2597 First I have no need to chill, in one of my prior comments I note changing out a CV axle with a jack. I realize it's possible but saying it's easy when your demonstration doesn't show it well.. it does require some clearance that isn't always easy to get with just a jack and stands. I CERTAINLY would have preferred a lift for that job. But ya use what ya got ;-) For me it would definitely be a factor, though when considering swapping out something that's a tad optional rather than necessary. JS That said, I DO enjoy the channel and the comparisons of inexpensive vs top dollar replacements/upgrades. I'm a subscriber, so again, no need for me to "chill." Regardless of the comparative difficulty of some of these tasks, knowing what the difference between the inexpensive vs expensive upgrades does have a value for me. Maybe I'm just a tad envious eh? I WISH I had a garage with that equipment available to me.

I know it sounds like I'm begging for it, but it's just a try.

Should have ran the cars through the slalom with the stock suspensions for a baseline to see what the improvement was. I would be looking at a middling kit if it wasn't a full on track dedicated car. Bilstein adjustable coil over kits are $1-1.5k.

Maxpeeding rods are all pretty good I bought some coil overs for my 7th gen civic. They’re great besides the fact I need to lower some more.
