PLEASE HELP: GC & AGX setup!!!!

[firehawk]

Alright, heres my problem. I bought my car a few weeks ago and it has the Ground Control Coilovers (obviously has the Eibach Springs) and AGX Shocks both up front and in the rear. Well thats all great but I HATE how stiff the ride is. If i hit a bump, its like i just hit something with my car, its very rough. So my question is...how do i need to set the coilovers and the shocks that they are as close to the stock setup as possible. I like the abilitly to make the ride stiff, but thats only good for like the tracks/flat roads. Well there are no flat roads here in PA. I've checked the shocks, and they are all still in good condition. I just need to set them looser. Also the GC are set as follows. The front is almost the whole way up, theres about 5 threads showing. The rears are set lower at about half way through the threads. Thanks any help would be glorious!

AGX's are known to be stiff, so that's half of the problem. the other half is that the spring rates are much stiffer than stock. you're not going to be able to get a stock-like ride out of your setup. you could try swapping the springs and getting a softer rate.

and what springs have a softer rate? I would like to have a small drop if possible.

Call GC and tell them what you are looking for, they will tell you want to best rate to go with will be. The you just swapout the springs and reset ride height.

I am not sure why, but my CG/AGX combo rides so much better and quieter then anyone else I know. I keep hearing all this stuff about either noise or a bouncy ride and mine doesnt do that. I am not sure if it is just perception of the ride or if my setup just has some luck along with it.

I just did what you said, they were very nice over the phone, and very helpful. I will post in the next day or so if what he told me to do helps at all.
