Default To those running adjustable coilovers. How are you adjusting the rear?

If you have coilovers you know that there's no way you can get to the perch with a spanner when installed. Are you unbolting them from the bottom and twisting of them there? Please let me know if you know.

Are you trying to adjust the height? Don't you just take off the wheel and use the wrench to turn the coilovers

Or are you talking about adjusting the stiffness, just cut a hole in your trunk carpet so you can turn the ****.

Not really that easy. The rear coilovers on the SC430 go up into a tube in the back of the car you can't get to them. I was curious if people were unbolting the bottom and twisting them or what.

I didn't have such an access issue with my rear coilovers. Maybe because I was adjusting their heights with the car lifted so the wheel hubs were hanging down.
As for adjusting the rear stiffness, I cut ports to have easy access to the *****.
