Hi Sir. I have a 1990 musting 380 HP. I use a 4 speed manual and launch at 5,800 RPM. I use a 9 inch slick. What is you shock suggestion? Thank you. I like the info you presented here.
We typically recommend starting the clicks from full soft and adjusting from there. www.qa1.net/tech-center/tech-articles/how-to-determine-your-valving-on-qa1-shocks
Thank you for your feedback! We will definitely look into doing a video! We do have a video on our channel about adjusting your shocks on your pro-touring/streetcar. ruclips.net/video/MXpsOn2uJ50/видео.html We also have a tech article on our website that talks about tuning your shocks for specific driving. www.qa1.net/tech-center/tech-articles/how-to-determine-your-valving-on-qa1-shocks
Yeah I saw those vera ready thank you so much but I called you guys to damage a set of shocks to my 2015 camaro ss 1le I have a lower springs from BMR 1.4 All around so what I need from you guys still be a device what kind of shocks so I can use it on Sebring track
So if i have a 4 link car that slightly rattles the tires on a tight track around 60-100ft would that be a compression or rebound issue if its that soon, my guess would be to loosen compression by the this video, car is awesome on a hot track
The extension of the axle downward (rebound) is what allows the tire to dig into the track during separation. The compression is the tire moving back up into the fender. A firmer compression after the hit of the tire will help hold the tire down to the track.
@@QA1TECH right, but with when shifting weight, isn't the compression what makes the tire hit the ground? Do to the shift in weight, wouldnt a higher comp (making the compressing of the shock stiffer) be sending the tires into the ground? And the rebound, isn't that the rate in which the shock expands?
@@coltenconneway1230 Gotcha. We see what you're saying. Yes, you are correct. Compression is also used for what you're explaining. Both explanations are correct. We're both just looking at it in different ways. Thanks for sharing yours! It's cool to see the way other people think about it.
@@coltenconneway1230 Haha nope! You're doing just fine. Glad to hear our shocks are helping you out! Our engineers will be happy to hear that. We appreciate you and your business!
Sorry to be off topic but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Kingston Cristiano Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Qa1 denies their so called lifetime warratee. My shock blow out the inner shock tube. Split at the seam. Obvious manufacturer fault. The other shock wore the top locking collar on one side, another fault. Because I am in Australia they refused to deal with me. I contacted summit racing the vendor I purchased from and they were no help. I have branded my car with pics and qa1 sucks just to show this dishonest company not owning up to shocks that didn’t even last 2 years, 5000 kms.
"MAN QA1 THANK YOU!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌

do you do the clicks from full tight, or full soft? How do you know where to start from when you’re making adjustments?

@@sampedro03 Give us a call! We'd be happy to recommend something for you! 952-985-5675
Do you guys make a coil over model?
Yes, our shocks are also available in coil-overs! Give us a call and we can recommend a setup for you! 952-985-5675

I would have thought to actually tighten the compression?
Sounds like it wants some more air pressure.
More air pressure or more power.
I think he got Compression and Rebound/Extension backwards. Comp should be what hits the track, Rebound controls the shock's extension
The extension of the axle downward (rebound) is what allows the tire to dig into the track during separation. The compression is the tire moving back up into the fender. A firmer compression after the hit of the tire will help hold the tire down to the track.

Your shocks have definitely helped me, thank you guys!

so for a drag radial on a unprepped track, I want it more soft than stiff, right?
