BEST COILOVERS FOR SUBARU WRX/STI 2015-2021!! | SETUP | INSTALL | DIAL IN | SILVERS | NEOMAX

What's going on, everyone? Jim from Buckle Up Garage here, and welcome back to the channel. Today is an incredibly exciting day for me. As you've seen in our last episode, we installed our brand new Cosmis XT005R's wheels onto the car, and I absolutely love this look. However, there's something missing. Even though the car looks fantastic with the stock ride height, there's just something about that aggressive, lowered stance that I'm missing.

So, ever since we put on these wheels, I've been itching to complete the look by bringing the car closer to the ground. And today, we're making that happen with Silver's Neomax coilovers. That's right, guys and girls, we've got Silver's Neomax coilovers going on the VA-chassis WRX. I believe these are a fantastic choice for these vehicles, and I can't wait to show you the unboxing, installation, and setup process to give you an idea of what to expect when you get a set of Neomax coilovers.

In this video, we'll be unboxing, installing, and setting up these coilovers to provide you with valuable insights, whether you choose Silver's Neomax or any other brand like BC Racing or Fortune Auto. I opted for the Silver's Neomax coilovers for several reasons – the cost-to-performance ratio, the digressive piston design, and their overall ride quality. I'll walk you through the entire process, from unboxing to installing, reviewing, and setting up these coilovers for great everyday driving.

Before we dive into the installation, I'll take you through the process of setting the preload on these coilovers. Whether you have a dial caliper or not, I'll share a trick using the factory spanner wrench provided by Silver's. This will help you achieve the recommended preload and ensure your suspension is set up for success.

As we move on to the installation, I'll guide you through the steps, sharing some pro tips along the way. From removing the front wheels to dealing with suspension components, brake lines, and wheel speed sensor harnesses, I'll cover it all. We'll tackle the intricacies of the Ecentric bolt and make sure everything is ready for the new Neomax coilovers.

Next, I'll unbox the Silver's Neomax coilover kit, providing an overview of what's inside. You'll see all four struts, along with the owner's manual, service manual, spanner wrenches, and additional tools for adjusting camber plates and remote adjusters for the rear. I'll share why I chose these coilovers and discuss some of their features.

Once the front struts are out, we'll move on to the rear installation, covering the removal of the factory shock and strut. I'll explain the specifics of the rear coilovers and their installation process. Additionally, I'll showcase a neat trick for setting up the adjustable tops in the trunk, ensuring easy access for future adjustments.

With the coilovers installed, I'll demonstrate how to set the preload on the rear suspension, providing another insightful trick for those without a dial caliper. We'll go through the steps, ensuring the preload is within the recommended range for optimal performance.

As we move towards the final stages of the installation, I'll walk you through the compression setting process for all four corners. Instead of counting clicks, I'll show you a straightforward method using the markings on the adjusters. This will make it easier to achieve the desired compression setting without the hassle of counting numerous clicks.

After everything is set up, we'll do a quick test to ensure the suspension feels right before taking the car for a maiden voyage. I'll share my experience and thoughts on the initial ride, emphasizing the importance of fine-tuning the suspension to your preferences.

Now, the moment you've been waiting for – the big reveal of the car with Silver's Neomax coilovers and Cosmis XT005R's wheels. I'll showcase the final look, discuss the achieved ride height, and share my overall satisfaction with the setup.

In the end, this video serves as a comprehensive guide and review, offering valuable insights for anyone considering upgrading their suspension. Whether you choose Silver's Neomax or another brand, the installation process, tips, and tricks shared in this video will provide a helpful reference for your coilover upgrade journey.
