Coilover Suspension Setup Assistant: Download Now
A little while back Mark from DMS sent me a Coilover Suspension Setup Assistant Excel file to help with dialing in a new set of KW V3's(very nice of you to do Mark). Many people on the boards are running some type of coilovers that can probably use a little bit of adjustment so I wanted to pass on the love. Remember, any adjustments you make, your alignment will probably loose shape.
Right click here and save. You'll need Excel to view this file!
Enjoy and bump this after your download so everyone can get a peice of the love!
Later guys!

While that may be very helpful to people, I seriously doubt he wants you posting his intellectual property on a public forum. I would remove that link instantly, then contact him prior to posting it again.

Very nice spreadsheet, though I agree with him ^^^^^^
I would at least ask before you post something like this.

He is the one who posted telling anyone that would like a copy to email him. That leaves me to believe that i'm just doing him a favor.

Guys before getting bent out of shape about IP, the stuff in the spread sheet is common suspension tuning knowledge. Now it's just in a handy spreadsheet for one to fine tune at the race track. Thanks for posting this ... very cool to see it in an interactive app.

I would always check with the person that put the time into the thing just to make sure they are cool with it. Sure it is all common knowledge, but someone obviously spent some time arranging it in a nice easy to use manner.
Carry on bishes.

select your "symptoms". click "none" then you'll see the drop down arrows. choose whatever. when you do that you'll see the "recommended shock settings" change telling you what to change your setup to. remember though, this is for the DMS 40mm coilovers but it helps you know which direction you want to make your adjustments. hope that helps!
later,

For those of us that are lucky enough to have both BUMP and REBOUND adjustments here are two links, the first gives some theory the other gives a setup guide based on the phases of the corner.

Enjoy!
