I just installed the Pedders Extreme XA coilovers over the weekend, and after adjusting the damping settings, front and rear, and a few road tests[at the limit], the improvement over the Pedders springs, in ride and handling is very much better. With 30 clicks damping, front and rear, from soft to hard, you can dial in the ride you want. Full soft is about the same as a stock SS, and a few more clicks is about like the Pedders springs. five clicks off of full hard, and the handling is "Oh Boy Howdy". The suspenion is tighten up, turn in is quicker, car rotates real good, and rear end sticks, and hard to get the front end to push out. Handles better than aftermarket springs. Whats not to like about that.
I'm on stock tires, but soon will be putting on a set of sticky summer tires[no snow here], 255/40/18, and I think with the bigger stickier tire, I can play a lot harder, and be quicker, on the upcomning autocross next month.
Oh, did I mention: I'm in love already. "Moon"

 

I was hoping to hear that, where is the auto cross ?

 

moonsign. Nice to hear you're happy with them.

I put on the new "'redesigned" Pedders springs last week. Going to give an update as soon as I log a few miles on them.

 

SS Fan: Autocross is at "Goodguys" car show-Nov. 10-11, Pleasanton Cali. "Moon"

 

I want to come play too !!

738 miles

 

So now you got extra springs lying around share with me....

 

Takeoff springs going back to Pedders for testing, for coilbinding. "Moon"

 

wht is coilbinding ?

 

when the springs fail at holding the weight of the car and the coils start hitting and rubbing on eachother

 

Spring coils hitting each other as the spring compresses. Like below.
