How I sheltered in the bowels of Korollich ring suspension - Toyota Corolla, 1.3 L, 1993

As you know, contemplating in the browser at work resources like injapan.ru instead of the ugly Outlook shortens the working day and lifts the mood, and also burns the leg where the wallet in the pants pocket touches it)

In general, I wanted to put a multi-link SSS Levinovskaya, but the fact that it had to be somewhere to look for the whole assembly, rebuild, collective farm with the installation (although all this was naturally passed by many maniacs and there is nothing outrageous there), then still tenderly serviced - inclined my choice to buy aftermarket pendants evil tyunyachy. On injapan, a set of inverted coilovers Jic-Magic FLT-TAR A2 ( jic-magic.com/ViewProduct...arModelID=66&CarMakeID=10 ) was won and purchased. The link shows that these are single-tube screw struts with adjustable stiffness, spring preload adjustment and height adjustment rack + one more adjustment, a pleasant surprise, which I did not know about that it will be included, the spring rate - akhtung! 5 and 7!

Long wait and now I have the pieces of iron. In the kit I found 4 racks, two keys for adjusting the rings, a manual, which later, together with a friend, was deciphered from Japanese, and an extension for adjusting the stiffness of the front - this is a small twist in the photo. It looks like this:

On the lower ends of the struts - stiffness adjusters, only 16 clicks. Due to the fact that the racks are shifters, the regulators are located not on the engine compartment side, but on the back, on the side of the road. This kanesh adds inconvenience, but not much.

A pleasant surprise for me were the front supports with camber adjustment included

A few hours - and everything got up like a native, it looks a little strange with drums))

The racks were installed with a visual underestimation of a centimeter and a half in relation to the drain, I wanted to drop it by the same amount, but changed my mind - it was dumb to catch a hatch on the bottom of a Leningrad or Michur street, and you can't get out of Moscow. In the photo, it is noticeable that the car is a little dropped, I would like more for a bow wedge, as the Pindos say, but all the same it is not worth it.

Now behind the wheel. The first impression is a tin scribe, at a speed of up to about 80, the suspension does not seem to work at all, it jumps like a ball on the slightest irregularities! On the way home, out of habit, I wanted to go out to strike a couple of times)) Then I got used to it. I think it is treated with a slight spring release, but this is probably already going to bother in the next season. I will take it off for the winter, of course, I will kill the stock without regretting it) Turns are very clear, there are no rolls, in principle, in drift / skid it breaks more sharply and unexpectedly, especially on a clamped suspension (well, that's natural) Rebuilding - with one movement of the steering wheel, checkers (although I am not a fan of this at all, but the Moscow Ring Road was not very free on the day of the kada I put everything, I had to throw out the euphoria somewhere) - a pleasure, everything is very transparent and predictable. Also, the wheels began to break more sharply into the axle boxes during acceleration,

It is better not to get into the pits AT ALL - the body will hurt)) And he will loudly declare it. The interior and the body groaned decently - the panels and seats creak, so it's better not to lower the tacho arrow below 4000 or make the music louder - your choice)
