Wednesday July 6, Official Toronto Civics Meet
Time: 8:00pm
Place: Tim Hortons at Victoria Park and O'Connor. (It's not the Timmies right at the corner, it is further down the street. We normally don’t park in front of Timmies, but in the lot to the left).
Anyone looking to pay there membership fees, please fill out the online application before hand.
We have moved from KC to this new location. (We used to have meets in this same spot, a few years ago) I have been told that O'Connor has been repaved, so I don’t think you guys have to worry about being to low.
Directions:
401 West to Victoria Park South
After passing Eglinton, you will be making a Right onto O'Connor, and the Timmies is on the right hand side.
or
DVP South to Eglinton Avenue East
Right at Victoria Park
Right onto O'Connor
The Timmies is on the right hand side.

Anybody have any experience adjusting dampening in coils that want to help me? I believe the shop that put them in turned them back 4 clicks from hardest. Which is fine, still pretty smooth, but when on an upward slope (parking garage) I'm dragging my tail pipe. Anyway I want to increase the stiffness in the rear and run the car 14/16 instead of 12/12.
LOL, if anyone can help tonight I'll bring the lude, if not I'll ask the shop who put them in to make the rear adjustment (front is easy, I can do)

Michelle,
Are you saying that when the front end begins to go up the slope, your rear end (tail pipe) drags?
I don't think the damper would be the issue here. If you're on 12/12, that's three quarters of the maximum stiffness. I would say your car is probably a bit too low for the ramp.

Ride height, spring rate and compression dampening are completely different entities but all work together in a sense.
Michelle, to clarify are you speaking of ride height or compression damping? I wouldn't think that the springs are too soft since you said they are aftermarket coilovers.
