I tried to get a set of softer springs for street driving, I contacted Buddyclub, they told me they don't have different option for the D1 coilover

yes you are right as no other options,but went an spoke to suspension mob an they can do me a custom set of rear springs made for $280

do u need to go buddy club springs? can u not just go a replacement spring from one of the many spring manufacturers?

btw u wanna go a shorter spring, not a longer one.

So to lower the car i need to wind the shock adjuster up is this true? new to coilovers an i was told it works the opposite so i need a longer spring to lower it more, thats why im a bit confused an the suspension shop didnt even mention this to me,in any other given situation you do need a lower spring to lower the car.

ok ill try and explain this, as i think i know the train of thought ur on atm. basically if u sit 2 springs on the ground vertically, one 6" and one 8" both the same spring rate, then chuck a 300kg weight on them, the weight on the longer spring will sit higher.

if u got 8 coils, to go lower u'd want 6 coils (as an example). try contacting AAI in sydney. im sure they will show u the right direction as theyre buddyclub distributors :)
