Widelupo Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Like the heading says my lupo is too bouncy. My lup is lowered too the ground front about 100 and rear is slammed too without any adjusters sitting on 13s. Ive had the ap coil over for about a year now. But it seems more bouncy then what it used to be. Some1 told me if I put the adjuster in it will make the car less bouncy. Any advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper_GTI Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 When you say 'bouncy', does that mean too harsh or too soft? My AP's are pretty soft and still have a lot of body roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blister Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 i think he means to soft, best way to deal with this is to sell what you got and get a good set of coilovers lol it has been said thousand of times that they pretty much give you all the handling of a pogo stick lolgood luck trying things as i have them and its hilarious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widelupo Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 The front are pretty firm bt the back is like a bouncy ball. But it didn't used too be that bad. which set of coil overs would you advice me to get a like firm handling, I dont want a whiplash every time I go over a dip in the road. I also want to go really low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b3ast72 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Your shocks are probably blown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widelupo Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Ok I'll replace my rear shocks and see if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEP51 Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I love seeing cars coming the opposite way to me bouncing .A few weeks ago at the toytown meet, there was an arosa sport coming in and it definately wasnt rolling, it was moving in what can only be described as a hopping movement, spent about 50% of its time in the air (at only 5mph). Even worse was that the concrete slab it was driving along was completely flat. Utterly stupid way to drive, 100% certain it had to have been on TA's. At least on AP's however low u make the car it wont move around on a pogo stick. But to the OP u probably broke them. If you are going very low obviously handling isnt something on your mind, if u want handling, make it a bit higher. You need some give in the suspension.

bobbo Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Gone from having Weitecs on my old Lupo to Ap's on my new one. I wouldn't recommend AP's to anyone, they're crashy, bouncy as hell and don't offer much grip in corners (Yes they're set up properly and I've got good tyres).
