I turned the tab on top of the strut to match with the avs motor. 1/2 turn or less. I also used image translating to read some of the instruction.

No the ride is nice very high quality. Almost oem, still very soft. Just a slight bump in stiffness. Still feels like a Lexus. If the dealers sold a "sport suspension" for the GS, it could be this kit.

It’s almost $900 now shipped to California. I was considering this setup as I want to retain the stock ride quality.

I do have to replace my AVS struts/shocks. I see that most fellow members go with RS-R for springs.. Any feedback would be great.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but how many miles did you end up riding this out for? Would you go back to it?

Can someone educate me on this? The OEM springs and struts are less then $200 each. What is the benefit to the aftermarket that is similar to OE?
