  • I convert the front ABC suspension to Yellow Speed Racing coilovers. I also replace the ball joints and the lower rearward control arms on both sides. It went well but not without a hick-up or two. I do apologize for losing some of my recorded material on how to replace ball joint. But all in all i got the job done. thanks to all you guys for the comments and support. I will be bringing more videos to all of you on all my projects. Thanks again and enjoy!

    Hi BMAN, I've converted to Yellow coil-over too. My ride height is at 2 figures in the front n 3 in the back. The runs and everything. But, the ECU is saying that the car is to low and it won't move when I put it in drive. It move some time in reverse.

    If not mistaken 15mm is the plug size. I have researched the web to only find 14mm plugs. If I continue to have difficulties are you willing to sale the plugs to complete this job?

  • @jonhsmith1902

    What are the torque specs for the front upper control arm, forward (thrust) arm, and lower (rear) control arm? Thank you and I appreciate you taking the time.

    Nice vid! Without the sway bars how does it feel during evasive moves?

    • @bmancars3237
      @bmancars3237  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've done some driving not too hard or crazy ones. So far it rides pretty good. I'm in the lookout for an s500 sway bar. I've heard they bolt on to this frame and the holes are already there for it. Just need to remove some hydraulic hoses. We'll see how that works in the near future.

      I bought one type from Harbour freight for $15...the other type is the high end one alot more expensive which i borrowed for free from O'Reilly auto parts. Make sure to tell them you also need the adapters for European cars. Otherwise they will only give you a simple one. Hope that helps!

    Plug that was used for the disconnect was a 15mm. Where did you purchase and do you have a part number?

    • @bmancars3237
      @bmancars3237  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I found those locally. Any commercial hydraulic hose and connector stores will carry them. They are called the "quick disconnect hydraulic plugs." Home depot had some but too big or too small, same with Amazon. Hope that helps!

    • @bmancars3237
      @bmancars3237  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Since these are standard, they all come with damper adjustment so you can set the ride softness or stiffness. They work really good.

    • @bmancars3237

      Yellow speed racing (adjustable coilovers) get them directly from their website. You do have to wait 3-4 weeks because they are made to order. Comes from Taiwan.

    My car was driving fine, even with Hydraulic being bad and being to low. But, after the conversion to Yellow coil-over it won't move.

      I didn't mind the red warning light also. Until I saw one of the videos on TH-cam and it helped. Just take out the #5 fuse in the fifth place/ counting from the front back.

    • @somphitchanemanivong9904
      @somphitchanemanivong9904 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Something is telling the car that it too low and that it's not allowing to drive it. Sometimes it's will let me drive it and Sometimes it won't. The problem is that when I put it in gears it won't move. It moves in reverse Sometimes.
