Thanks! The ride quality is actually pretty good considering the coilovers are not set to comfort mode which are levels 1 through 3. Later on I might lower them to 3 but for now I love how the car handles on Medium (level 6).

Right out of the box the back was even more slammed...We had to raise it around 1/2 an inch but I guess that still wasn't enough. Tonight ill raise it another 1/4 inch.

I was thinking of getting tanabes too. If you have time can you take pics with the car slammed with the lowest settings?
