Function and form type2 S14 max height? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Sup guys.

I slapped on a isis arms suspension kit, CS tie rods, cusco sway bars, and Function and form type 2 coilovers on my S14. I used to have koni yellows on eibach sportlines.

I took it in for an alignment and the drop was too low in the front so i raised the front and while i was raising the rear to match, it started to seem unsafe. As if it was running low on threads, but the rear tire is still 2 inches tucked.

what is the max safe height for these Coilovers?

Post a pic. If you can't get it aligned at the height you want, sounds like you need to go to a different alignment rack.

I called up fnf and they said to unscrew completely and rescrew to at least 1 inch.

yeah take it to a different shop. i got mine done at kauffman tire because they had one of those racks that lowers flat into the ground and then you pull onto it

no such thing as too low

So i tested out how low they can go and you can drop 2 inches past the rear diff touching the ground with the exhaust removed
