Nice! When you install them you should take note of any little tips/tricks involved, I'm throwing on some K-Sports in a week or two so any additional input would be great

Thanks everyone.. As far as the drop.. hmm . Good question. The unfortunate thing is that I have nothing to use as reference. Seems that I'm the first in this forum to have them. It was a special order. But by looking at other applications.. they go LOW. I'll keep you posted. Putting them on this weekend.

Ok. So I had them installed today. These coilovers go stupid low.





I expect them to settle a bit.

Your car looks really amazing. I wish I could see your ride in person.
How is the ride quality? better than the Tein H springs?

Thanks talwang.. There is NO comparison.. Absolutely none! I have it set about 20 clicks to hard and it rides like you wouldn't believe. No body roll at all. I am very happy with these coilovers. I had it much lower when I first put them on but couldn't drive.
