Thanks for the excellent writeup Darren. Here are some pics i took after finishing the job. Only took me 2.5 hours, and thats including the time i spent removing the rear seats after i butterfingered the top strut mount nut, along with my socket and my extension. Be careful not to do this, as no amount of fishing with a magnet will help you.
Springs are Tein S Tech's in case anyone was wondering. They ride great, feel almost stock around town but you can feel the difference when you turn sharply, also the rear slides out easier due to the stiffer spring rate in the rear. All in all the car feels much flatter now, but not uncomfortable or bouncy. Wheels are 17x8 +35, tires are 225/25/17
