Did anyone receive inputs / solution from Tein so far?

Though not from Tein, I've between told to use a little blue loctite. I've also had the settings wander.

Is this a CSG spec or std spec SRC?

I recommend you give West End a visit, and have them properly tighten everything up.

It is a standard one, and West End foud this out when I recisited them for aligment adjustment... I'm looking for a proper solution on this...

They can do a 'best effort' fix for you. Most of the time it works.

You may want to back off your settings slightly for WSIR; the T8 bumps are pretty big at 120+.

Also make sure you pedal dance.

I had the same issue ...Check the spring , see if it can rotate freely .if not , lower the perload setting , just have it enough to hold the spring while the spring can be rotate .

I guess if the spring is peload and lock too tight , it can break loose the lower collar .

I see... it is now pre-loaded to TEIN recommendation with their SPG... I will keep your comment in mind if it goes wrong again. Thanks.

I just installed my SRCs yesterday and have spent the morning testing the adjustments on a very bumpy very windy road and the amount of change each turn of the knobs makes is truly mind blowing. I'm incredibly impressed with the range of adjustability and can't wait to truly learn to fine tune the characteristics as I become more sensitive to the adjustments. I am nowhere near that point yet so I'll go off of the tested settings @CSG_mike has provided for now and learn as I adjust them at the track how each setting or combination of settings affect the characteristics of the car. Here's a shot of my rear suspension setup currently.

Depending on the version of SRCs you received, the settings will be different. CSG SRCs will have different settings from the USDM/JDM SRCs.

Getting my CSG Spec SRCs installed Tuesday, I cant't wait!

Love these coilovers, drove home from the Racers Line with them on the canyon setting which was very stiff on bay area roads. When I got back home I put them to the comfort settings and drove around, I can't believe they are the same set of coils. Drives like it is on rails, I could not recommend these enough.
