Now I'm worry about PUSPAKOM testing... the car seem to be lowered when use ori ae86 spring and suspension.... are they at PUSPAKOM very particular about lowering suspension.... :huh: :huh:

 

[habid]

I also dono, as I know for basic rule gap from type & arch must exceed 2 fingger... (corect me Im wrong any).... and some body told me PUSPAKOM do the inspection using 'Tin can', if ur car can pass the Tin can then ure pass.... dono true or not...
but agreed that ur car are to lowerd... I think mine also same la bro, long time didnt go to my mech place...

Ya with stock ae86 suspensiion.. the picture i took when the carr still on the jack...How now.. should i get the aftermarket suspension which can higher up the suspension.. or chage rim and tyre to smaller one....???Just for the purpose of Puspakonm inspection...

EG9.. any ideas???

 

[rollakid]

use thicker bushing, but dunno will affect the handling or not.

my rear absorber is raised by 1 inch with a thicker bushing (or something else, dunno) just so the tires won't hit the wheel arc. thats what i get for playing with deep dish mags :P .

As for the puspakom part, try to bring your car there for Inspection 1st, last tiem my car was quite low as well when I go through the puspakom Inspection.

Adjustable!.. ya are also interested to use it in my setup.. but very tight budget now as want to settle everthing under 6K... I was thinking that way too... send to puspakom first and wait fro their comments.... :huh:
