How to install/setup suspension?
Hi there,
by tomorrow i should have purchased successfully some second hand fully adjustable coilovers with adjustable top mounts.
I have only changed suspension once on the landy and they was one of the easiest jobs ive done.
However, as this is going to be on the scoob, i want it done for max track performance and stability.
Im sure getting them on will be no problem. But how do i go about setting up the ride height, bump stiffness, camber angle etc?
Can anyone offer some tips of what i should do before i fit them to the car?
Im thinking, make sure the shocks are the same un-compressed length. And set any other settings to the middle.
I have no idea how much a drop the suspension is going to cause.
So yeah, how should i go about doing this?

Sorry just seen this !
Tein's advice is :-
13.6" from wheel arch to centre of hub (front)
13.4" from wheel arch to centre of hub (rear)
That's for my New-age STI.... all I could find !
