Re: Shocks And Springs Poll
The ride will be smoother if you set the rear @ a lower level. #4 is not meant for comfort - while it also reduces the shocks life

On Gran Turismo, I set the rear shocks with less resistance than the fronts for a Honda Civic. I cranked down on the rears and that actually made me have less control in the sharp corners.

Of course, in real life, you will want to do something different.

Well it all depends on your body type (coupe, sedan or hatchback) and althought GT3 is pretty real life in many aspects, It's not totally correct. the Teins on my Civic (16-way dampening adjustment) my car seems to handle it's best with the rears 4 clicks STIFFER than the fronts, and this considering I have NO front swaybar, and a thick 22mm Integra Type-R rear swaybar and I still need stiffer biased dampening at the rear than the front. I also like my car feeling neutral where it can oversteer as easily as it'll understeer.

How do you like those? H&R is one company I haven't heard anything bad about.
