Anyone using QA1 da's fronts ?
Just installed new set with the only optional "250 lb. spring rate".
Began test with Compression 16 out of 18 stiff, rebound 0 out of 18 full soft. I thought this setting would offer an abundance of lift to start with. Front ride height 1 1/4" lower than rear. Been running BMR 15" conversion with Hoosier 29x10.5Wx15's stiffs and skinny's. See sig. Rear setting unchanged from previous best setup. Front end does not lift as much as the stock spring/struts. I feel the springs are too stiff. Installer commented on how much stiffer they felt than the stock springs. Made several test hits on clean concrete (I do understand a prepped track would offer better results) Same pavement I use to test setup and tune prior to new struts. Car is set up for some pretty serious street and will probably never see strip. I take my hobbies to extreme and do not desire to get the bug for chasing numbers. I enjoy the challenge of making car as quick as possible on street but seemed to have hit wall. Would appreciate some recommendations or help from those experienced with similar setup?
