be interesting to know
To be honest, when I drove the car home I was thinking to myself "Damn this is a hard ride!" I was literally bouncing in my seat over every bump!
Then last night when I got home from work I adjusted the dampening to the softest setting (It was set to the hardest!) and went for a spin. The difference was amazing! The car felt like it was almost back at stock feel but handling was sharper.
I have since adjusted it up +10 clicks from the softest setting for now but I'll play around with it when I have some more time

So all in all I'm extremely happy with the RS*R coilovers! It puts a bigger smile on my face when I drive now

The only thing you may have to check is height adjustment... I want to possibly go lower in the front but I only have about 3-4 threads left to lower. The techs said it was dropped around 30mm but I see Moto's is at -35mm at the front(?). I'll have to contact him and see how much travel he has left on his.

Also my heights were set to "Moto spec" when they were sent from Japan, which I think is extremely nice of them!

Lovin' it!
