    Default VR rear suspension

    G'day ive been posting a lot of electrical problems lately. Which I'm almost through and would love to help anyone out in the same spot I was.

    About the suspension, id love to get the back down more, but ive noticed with this 215i that when i do put some power down the IRS reaaaaly slams the back down. I was wondering, with SL (king springs most likely) and matching shocks, would i be bottoming out? I know the springs are stiffer when lower, but ive never experienced a torque like this before and was wondering if it is a risk at all. Anyone with SL and IRS who could reply would be very helpful. I am also planning to get a 4 point camber kit but doubt that will make a difference to the stability of heavy acceleration. Thanks!

    Standard HSV height is already the best for handling. Lowering further will only make it worse. Once you are on the bump stops you really don't have a suspension anymore.
