First drive with powertrix coilover

Jhill

Yea the front isn't bad at 12k I just wish I could keep the rear from bucking on rebound after a sharp dip. I now have front a 4 clicks out from firm and rear at 3 clicks out from firm and it helps but then gets a little harsh over rough surface (follows the ground too tight). I think I will end up testing a 10/9 setup, only lowering the front to keep a similar ratio front to rear as the 12/11. Just hope it doesn't completely kill their track usage, still has to be better than stock and a lot of other coilovers aren't running as high a rate so maybe a good compromise.

Why don't you just go full soft and see if that solves the bucking and going airborne issues?

It's funny you say that because I just did try going softer today, so now I'm half of halfway towards soft (so 12 out in the front and 11 out rear) and it helped a lot. And as embarrassing as it is I have to admit when I goofed. Seems I was misinterpreting what I was feeling. At full soft I was having a rebound buck (also my rear preload wasn't right when first installed), so going against what I know I should have done and go like 2 clicks at a time I went lazy (since I still haven't modded my rear strut covers) so I went 1/2, 1/2. This led to a similar feel but opposite condition (and only got worse when I went even slower) to where the car was staying super planted and staying down over peaks which then causes your body to rise and the car not following your body, giving a similar bucking feel. Had a similar condition when I had too much low speed compression on my bikes to where it wouldn't absorb the smooth crest and compress on the front side so then had little to no negative travel to keep the wheel down.

Anyhow it was very nice today, haven't gone to my test bump yet and don't imagine it will ever smooth that out (just not enough travel on the z) as it's a horrible bump but good to get feedback.
