Sweet.
Consider doing toe arms at the same time. Has a very positive effect on the way the car drives and will give you even more adjustment :)

holy shit 10k 10k. hows that ride and handle.

That packing looks horrible. In for pics after install though :)

Well, they're on. But we did some things wrong, lol. My first coilover install, his like fourth. Decided to try it out anyway.

Car rides great, and at highway speeds there's no noise. But at low speed there's some pretty terrible noises which are frightening me. I think I may know what the problem is, but I'm going to ask for some of your opinions as well.


First, here's the video showing off the noises (You can really hear it at :30 seconds.)

Secondly, I realize we were supposed to install them both at a 90* angle, like the instructions said, but I guess we got tired on the last one and did it wrong. Or we're just retarded. Fixing it tomorrow after school either way.

But all in all, I decided to go for a conservative drop, just until I get my camber arms and new wheels, then I'm droppin' her all the way. Here's how it's sitting now, I'll get more pictures tomorrow.

Down from a 4 finger wheelgap to about a 1 finger gap.

I'll keep you guys updated with how tomorrow goes.

Looks awesome dude :) What is the range on those? like highest setting vs. lowest setting for drop?

Not sure on the range, but I could go VERY, VERY low. Literally if I was to twist all the way up, I would have my frame on the ground. As for raising, I'd say I could prob raise it another inch or so.

Thats looking really good. Kinda like the stock rims with the drop and on white :-)

Anyone have any suggestions on the noises?

Well #1 fix the install issue and see if the noise persists. #2 if that isn't it maybe you're bottoming out on something because your car is too low? like tires hitting the plastic liner? Also something could be loose. If nothing else, this weekend tighten up every bolt you removed just to be safe.

10k? your box says 8k springs

I know this might be an obvious question but did you preload them?
