Hey guys im going to the track for the first time in the evo 8 this saturday and i was curious if the factory struts are adjustable and if so is it worth fooling with? I noticed the previous owner has cut out holes in the trunk carpet where he has fooled with them for one reason or another. Any info would be appreciated.

 

Is it on stock shocks and springs? He may of had adjustable aftermarket coil overs that had dampening adjustment. If you are stock suspension than you won't have any dampening adjustment.

 

i havent really looked because im not sure what stock looks like i have never fooled with them. I just know he has cut out holes right about the rear struts for some reason unknown to me haha

 

i just went and looked and all i can see is a brass bushing and brass nut on top of the rears thats all but i dont know what stock looks like so idk haha

 

sounds like you have the stock suspension. it looks like this

 

he had a rear strut bar installed...that would acct for the holes and no obvious changes in the shock mounts

 

never thought of that. It wasn't there when i got the car must have stripped it with the wheels, mbc, and turb timer haha
