i have the settings at minimum and would like it a little softer.
i think we could have made the springs softer during the installation. The guy in the video talked about it.

So the big names in coilovers for the SC430 (from all that i've read that owners have tried) are BC, Megan, D2, Ksport, Godspeed, and a few others. I have been trying to do as much research as I can. One issue that occurs with nearly all these is excessive rear tire wear due to poor camber. I've heard there are some coilvoers that have rear camber adjustment. Does anyone know which of these companies offers a rear set with camber adjustment? I understand there are certain kits out there (RCA, SAGE Camber kits) that one can add to any coilover but if there's a coilver with adjustment then no need for extra parts. Hope to hear from anyone with experience on this matter. Thanks.

I got to say the suspension is a major let down on the SC430, will be something I will address in the future when I get the chance.
I was driving through a parking lot with speed bumps last week, and I can feel the front damper hit the bump stop every time on the way down.
I wasn't going slow, I was going "stand still" speed.... There is just no reason to have the suspension that soft.
Been looking too.
