Message: <blockquote data-quote="bettergrip" data-source="post: 675713" data-attributes="member: 9999">here's the situation.I drive an AE111... coilovers... lowered to about 3 finger clearance. Everytime I go over a speedbump (slowly)... accelerate... or stop for traffic lights... there is this super annoying "tak" sound... which is coming from the front of my car. It will only make a noice once... per incident. It's NOT "tak tak tak"... i.e. just one sound per bump... etc...So I went and did some investigation and found that my "anti-roll links" (please correct if my terminology is wrong)... anyway, looks like they are max'ed. Almost at a 45degree angle. So I think that this is causing the sound. Please see photos, it is harder to see because camera angle no good... had to stick my hand behind the wheel in some funny angle.photo 1 - taken with hand behind wheelhttp://www.tanfamily.info/link01.jpgphoto 2 - taken through the rims... to show what the actual angle looks likehttp://www.tanfamily.info/link02.jpgSo I went to Cynick's place to compare with his car. His suspension setup is similar to mine... but I think mine is probably about 1 finger lower. His angle... is not so teruk like mine.Questions:a. Does lowering the car affect the angle of the anti-roll links?b. Do you guys think that this is the cause of the sound?c. Anyone else with AE111 have the same problem? Did you guys raise it to 4-5 finger clearance... or change something to avoid this noise problem... "tak"Advice... please...</blockquote>
