Haha, yeah. I charge hourly for Photoshop skillz.

Can't wait to see your build. Looking forward to it. Nothing wrong with making it look good first. Later on you can make it faster when go fast parts are actually available for the US Mazda 2 that won't cost use an arm and a leg.

so after 2 days of drinking i finally got a chance to do a quick install ( took me 3hrs) with all the hang over and sht i got it installed today. and tomorrow i will do the fine tuning. so far im happy with the ride height and as i was driving the car to do a test drive steering was hellah off and was pulling to the right. but i cant judge i yet cuz i havent had a chance to tune it.

 

[Font Motorsports]

You usually do this stuff drunk?

 

[shortfuse12]

iwas actually hangover from yesterday but friends came by the house and brought sum hennessy while i was doing the install. so we were taking shots while doing the install lol. afriend actually came up with the funniest shttodayabout my car. he saidnow that u lowered ur car it doesnt look like a PC "mouse" anymore, it looks like a white mac mouse hahahaha

What coilovers are they? and is that a apexi phone holder? hah

 

[shortfuse12]

coilovers are made by k-sport u can get them from FONT MOTORSPORTS lookhim up under main vendor. yeah i'm planning to use my old apex vAFC holder as a celphone holder for my old motorola droid magnet place on the back so when i attach the phone it will go automatically to car mode.

as of right now i did a front and back tuning adjusted the length of front and rear strut to my specs. and adjusted the ride height. front is 12inches, back is 13inches (measure from center of hub to the lowest point of FENDER) i will give this spec for a month til everything settles down. i really want the front to be lower than the back due to air drag.

so after driving for an hour to a local race track (empty mervyns parking lot) i found few issues with the set up.
front was too low had to raise it by 1/2in so everytime i'm driving fast and hits a bump it wont hit the inner lining also adjusted the strut to full left turn (soft) then 1 full turn to the right so far the response is amazing when u make a turn and step on the gas, steering wheel tends to turn to normal position. back was lowered 1/4in cuz it was too high. haven't really figured out the squealing issue from the back tires.

since it wasnt raining today i decided to remove and clean my rims to clean off the mud, sorry for the crappy celphone pic. back pic looks like it has a big gap but in reality its just 2 fingers gap and i have skinny fingers

 

[Font Motorsports]

^ Nice wheels! Needs MORE low!

 

[StrangeP3rm]

The car looks good love the CWP . What was the final ride height you went with for daily driving your Ksports? You mentioned that your dampeners were set to 1 click from full soft , is that what you have been running these last few months ? And what are your impressions on your final set up? Thanks
