Great coilovers for the money, and they freaking slam..... you'll be impressed.

Only thing is, you'll have to zip tie the ABS sensor.. but its not a very big deal.

Just last night I went out for some night time shots. Here are 3 crappy pics of my gay digital camera sorry it wasnt much I was just too embarassed using this crappy digital camera, Im waiting for my friend to finalize the pictures he captured with his D40... enjoy.....




sorry for the late update... I tried been busy lately more pictures to come!!!!

I did some rear fender cutting cause my spacers and rear RCA will be coming in for its job also to fix the camber issue... rolled the front fenders for spacers and its front RCA..(dont worry I dont DD the car with this negative camber problem, my bike is my other transportation for as long as the sun and no rain permits) I dont know what I did wrong in rolling the fronts maybe because I didnt get to cut the ziptie thats holding my brake lines now my VSC, VSC OFF, and ABS lights are on anybody know how to fix this problem??

thanks! Im still doing adjustments on it to get things riding right and somewhat smooth (cant expect a 100% smooth out of So Cal )
because I still rub and bottom out a bit on my front passenger side more than my driverside... I think i need to load my springs a bit more...

Oh dont worry!! Lol I am going to be going lower than this , the only thing holding me back is that Im waiting for TrendyTodd to reply back about those Sage Rear SS RCA so I can fix the camber issure when I go lower thats why... If I dont get any info on them asap I might drive to SD to pick up the ones from Autofashion

Well the upper control arm does not the coilovers but today (FINALLY) I will be redoing the adjustments to the preloads to make it a bit stiff just a tad bit stiff because it feels like theres still a lot of shock travel thats why my upper control arm is boom banging on medium dips/bumps....

I'll keep you updated on the results when Im done.
