Sorry for the broken-English title!
I installed a secondhand set of KYB AGX adjustable shocks and lowering King Springs into my 89 NA6 a few weeks ago. My friends said there would be a gradual drop, not instant but now we're up to three weeks.
Here ate some details:
- I haven't dríven the car for the past three weeks due to engine issues
- haven't got a wheel alignment yet
- checked the part numbers and these springs are definitely for lowering
- old suspension was stock
I tried a google search and nothing turned up but I don't know the best search terms to be honest.
Any ideas why I haven't gotten low yet?
Thanks,
Russ

Re: Lowering springs no lower?
Correctly installed front/rear - not reversed?
Old suspension may have sagged so difference might not be as noticeable.
What are the new height measurements at the seam welds?

Re: Lowering springs no lower?
Also...did you tighten everything back up under load or in the air?
Re: Lowering springs no lower?
KevGoat, checked part numbers of the front springs. and they're correct. From memory. Tightened in the air but I'll tighten under load tonight when I get back home. Same with measurements

Make sure you loosen things off a bit before re-tightening it all with the car on the ground.
