Stasis Street Sport Help!

[Venator1]

I just received the new Stasis Street Sport kit. Can some one PLEASE answer the following?

1. What is the standard height the Stasis will give me out of the box without adjusting? For NYC streets I feel I may have to go higher then 25 inches which I see many are riding on their suspensions.

2. I am not mechanically inclined at all. I will have to get my mechanic to do it. Does the kit install like any other coil overs or is there a specific custom installation necessary that the mechanic may not know how to do?

3. In the picture on the Koni box there is a knob for adjusting the height or tension. On the stasis kit there is no knob! How do you adjust the height then?

1. Dont know besides http://www.stasisengineering.com/Cat...&VID=50&PID=76

2. Nothing custom, just PITA pinch bolts holding the upper control arms to the knuckle that are usually frozen. Simple install otherwise.

3. The knob on top is for a quck dampening adjustment which yours dont have.
Height is adjustable by loosening locking ring at the bottom of the spring then rotating other ring which changes the height.

Damping on the front Koni is adjusted by compressing the piston, and rotating the shaft while it's compressed.

Damping on the rear Koni is adjusted through a little slot cut in the top bushing near the shaft. There's a little window, where you insert an awl, or similar tool to turn the adjuster.

do not undo the pinch bolts,undo the other bolts holding in the control arms. if its a NY car the pinch bolts are more than likely seized in there and you have to do everything you can imagine to get em out then have to buy new ones. so undo the other 2 bolts on the upper control arms (closest to engine bay) and swing them out,much easier.

Standard lowering is 1.25 inches as preset. It will vary depending on vehicle and options or modifications.

I have mine down to 24 1/4 and I wouldn't recommend it. 25+ you'll be fine. Preset dampening is perfect though, so don't touch it.

I had them installed about a month ago, I wasnt happy with them cause they felt very close to stock, not stiff at all. I lowered the front 4 turns, made a world of difference! Much stiffer now, about 25 in the front. Small rake.

It's stiffer because you're probably just riding on the bumpstops. That ride will deteriorate as the bumpstops go to hell in a short period.

If you need someone who has experience installing Stasis coilovers let me know.

He's about 40 minutes from NYC, in warwick NY. Certified master audi mechanic with a full shop for side work.

PM me if you need his info.

As far as NYC driving, I would go slightly higher then 25.

I have a pretty good experienced Euro mechanic walking distance from my home. I am replacing the entire suspension. Heavy Duty complete Meyle control arms with tie-rods, rear stabilizer links, and Stasis Suspension. I just hope it will be done right. Thanks for the advice everyone.
