honestly i think it depends on your swaybars and spring rates... and your style... and ride height...some people like it a bit softer, so you can 'throw' the front in a bit more, and the rear harder to accommodate this.

I've previously had my fronts on about half and rear's full soft, with 10kg front and 8kg rear.

after swapping to 8kg front and 6kg rear springs, i've found that the damper is a bit too soft.

I've now stiffened the front damper to about 70% on the front and about. And also because i've lowered the rear a little more i dont have the clearance for the arches to clear my tyres... so i've made them full hard at the rear temporarily - until the rear guard work commences...

it's sort of trial and error - and find what suits the car, the setup, and yourself

Yeah. I understand. I run 6kg in the front now and 4 in the rear. I guess I need to experiment more. But I really don't like it all bouncy and stuff. I get it when I stiffen the dampers up. Sometimes its a bit scary lol.

your a good man huddy, not may would give away their trade secrets like that. my buddy club coil overs have just arrived, cant wait to install them and go for a skid, every one raves about coil overs, but it goes good with cut springs at the rear and lowered s15 front springs with s 14 front control arms.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
