    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    Thanks Andres, good to know I'm not the only one. I'll see how much I can adjust from the top. I looked earlier and I could see how the fender wall is just a bit thicker at the height we have it at and that's causing the problem. I wonder if the aftermarket endlinks are any better. Found this...

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    I'm lowered and about 1.5" from tire to fender but I doubt I'm the only one in that height with the K-sports. I've got 6" springs but there are at least 2 other autocrossers on the forum with 5.5" springs who compete at the lowest height possible... If the issue is height it would be easy... but...

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    If you look at this stock picture closely and compare it to my second picture, the endlink seems to be identical (installation and the way they stick out):

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    We might have switched the top mounts around when changing the springs (hand)... that's the only thing that comes to mind if this is not a known issue... need to check

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    Thanks for the replies... Yes I can confirm that sway bar links are on the correct side of the strut (I don't think it could be done any other way). Both pictures are from the left wheel/ the first one is with the tires turned all the way to the left (I think I could turn more if not for the...

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    Unless the stickers they came with were wrong, I don't think so. Those pictures are from the left front and the sticker says left...

    K-sport coilovers / endlinks rubbing - need help!

    We just finished installing the coilovers last night with 6" hyper coil springs. Had an alignment done this morning and noticed that there was a high pitch noise when turned fully to either side... took a look behind the wheel and this is what I see: The endlinks are being pushed into the...

    Done with the rear: Does ST allow interior panel modification to access the rear shock adjustment? I can't find it in the rulebook... it does allow modification for a rear STB installation but for that purpose only. How are people adjusting their rears with the K-sport?

    Yes, that was a typo. I currently have the ZII's on the car but I'm interested in R1R's and Rivals for testing.

    New toys for Demio to play with: This is probably where I'm going to stop with new parts and focus on tuning and trying out a few different tires.

    T/C ABS reset

    This may or may not relate to the question above but does anyone know if holding the DSC button for 10 second do anything special? I had to try since both my previous Mazdas did things when you held buttons for too long... so from DSC on if you press and hold the button it will turn off DSC...

    I also have 30lbs of Molson muscle flapping around that you can't see(couch)... kind of makes the 17lb A/C delete pointless.

    That's a very cool way to do it! I'm going to try it your way once I get the coils and get realigned, meanwhile I'm going to be doing around 1000km of DD... I think the wear should be okay? Here is my current thoughts on a budget setup: b-spec adjustable Rear Sway bar (purchased waiting to...

    My New STF project...

    Andres, have you had any issues with the rivals so far? Any tread splicing issues? I hear 205s are the worst when it comes to tread splicing.

    Got my first alignment done prior to our winter series starting. I think this should be a good starting point but feedback is appreciated:
