I want zero body roll?

[nos4mao]

Currently Im dropped on progress coilovers supposedly since I bought the EP used and it was already dropped. I'm running the CTR rear sway with corsport endlinks and I still feel lots of body roll! What should I do?

Thanks,
Matt

i believe the progress dampers are adjustable so start playing with that. you dont want to have 0 body roll there needs to be some.

The progress coilovers are only height adjustable.... but yea I know what you mean by having a little body roll?.

Thanks,

x2 haha!!! jeez i can't imagine how bad it'd be with 0 roll!

Body roll, or the lack there of is not a good indicator of how well or poorly a car handles.

Not to mention the fact that suspension tuning dictates that for maximum grip, you should be running as soft of a suspension as you can get away with.

So,Body roll aside. How is the car handling now?

hey man!

you need look at the kg on your progress springs...you can knock out a lot of roll with stiffer springs and a stiff dampener...it would prolly take atleast a 9kg spring to stop body roll on an ep, and at that point i dont know if you could use that stiff of a spring without a radical suspension setup, and for the street 9kg would rattle your car apart...

get some koni adjustable struts

550lb springs in the front and 750 lb springs in the rear

a 22 mm front sway bar and a 25mm hollow rear sway... that would put you pretty solid, you should talk to scott or the old noob about it

[taikahn]

low profile tires, stiff sidewalls, Real struts or coilovers, H bar, lower strut bar, tie bar, c-pillar bar, front bar, carbing or X brace, etc. <-- should more then do it.

We sell all of it.

Um, chassis braces have no effect on body roll, given that they don't alter spring rates or ant-roll rates... let alone damper rates.

but they look pretty

im running 10k/12k, no rattling here and it actually feels great on the road.

well lucky you, how much interior do you still have, and im surprised thats comfortable on the street, what dampeners/coilover setup

i got full interior, riding on megan street, with soft setting on the dampers.

True, but it will help keep it all flat.

ahhh that would be why then...its cool that it still rides nice when you soften up the dampeners...how stiff is it with the dampeners turned up
