CUSCO COILOVERS??

My e4 is fitted with cusco coil overs, the ride is shockingly hard tho, is there anway of adjusting the front ones so they arent as hard?
the rear of the car feels fine, just the front seems to be the prob.

the raer shocks have a adjuster on the side but the fronts dont, had it on the ramps and at the bottom of the front shocks ther is a nut with a small oval shaped screw coming out of the middle, this does turn........ Most likley im guessing this is where you adjust the rate of them?
Any one no which way to turn it? anticlockwise?

any help or info be much apreciated as cant find much on the net about them. :shock:

Yes anti-clockwise mate but you wont make a lot of difference to them.Cusco are renowned to be b!oody harsh at the best of times.

I have the cusco coilovers and top mounts and must admit they are not too bad. I have had them set at 3 but now turned them down to 1 and now feels the same as when i had my old suspension with lowered springs. Mine are prob different than yours as they are adjustable from the top. You just click the setting up or down on each coilover. Clockwise is harder and anti-clockwise is softer on mine.

yes ben they look a bit like yours but theres no adjuster on the top mount. the adjuster is at the bottom above the shock and need some long thin nose plires to adjust it been playing today and the ride is certainly better, turned the srew anti clockwise whilst pushing it into the shocker seems to have made quite a big difference, feels like ive actually got suspension and and doesnt bounce
