comfort? Posted by MJM [Email] (#872) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MJM) on Wed, 11 Apr 2001 09:58:51 In Reply to: If you ever get bored with it, Schu, Wed, 11 Apr 2001 08:31:57 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I don't really know how to phrase this, but how in the world is your 9-3 comfortable with those mods? My '95 SET is stock except for Konis set about 1/2 turn toward firm and 16" RE730's at about 35psi. The car pounds over every little road imperfection and settles heavily into dips and such. After the alignment it's not darty anymore, but the "jitter" and head-toss wears on me. A friend with an '00 Accord commented on how rough riding it was.
The handling isn't all that secure, either, at least that's how it feels. Perhaps I'm still spooked after having the tail come around on me on a twisty back road and nearly loosing the car in the ditch.
It settles evenly over two-wheel bumps, so I don't think I have a bad shock.
Thoughts? I'd been thinking my discontent was just me expecting perfection, but my friends comment got me thinking...
thanks, Mike
