threw em' in today. wink1.gif

the install itself isnt hard, its the adjustments that get really f***ing tedious. this is the downside to coilovers; you have to make sure the settings on each side are correct. especially since these things have adjustable bases, i wanted to make sure they were exact on either side. i dont even know how even the adjustable perches for the springs are...didnt really measure, just made approximations.

also, i took a bunch of pictures for a DIY, so that added to the time.

drove around a bit. you can definately feel the road more, but getting through turns is awesome. i have soo much negative camber though. ride height was lowered on the front and back a little under 3 inches. No rubbing on my brisk little drive either. oh, and it looks amazing. cool.gif

I was wondering how these compared to the Eibach ones. Tibby01 what did you have on the car before you installed these?
