    If you're talking about Japan-made aftermarket parts (not OEM), then I'd rather stick behind something that is proven to work.

    So that wasn't the point of my comment.

    21.5inches from the top of of the pillow mount to the top of the eye lite. should be a 1 inch drop before it settles.

    subtracted 1/4 inch so its a 20.75 to the top of the pillow mount to the top of the eye lite.

    teh megans have pillow ball mounts and they were in the price range. more adjustable than tein ss.

    no biggie, my main problem with coilovers is most people dont take the time to set them up right (ie corner balance, pre load etc) so even if you pay for "jdm" they still may not be any better.

    if you are really looking for something proven...... koni, moton etc..

I so far am very pleased with their product, on the softer settings, it is somewhat firmer than the stock setup, on higher settings 24-24 F-R, it is very aggressive. Thanks again Joey.

    My comment still stands. Like I said, I like the coils, and I will have to raise them up in the front a bit tomorrow. Appreciate all the compliments, btw this is the guy with the Supra, buddy oz10 was still logged in.

    I mean, it's dumped...BUT....

    How does it handle? How's the toe/camber?

    I'm not trying to cause a fuss, but I still don't agree.

    But, to each their own

    I'm raising it up a bit in the front today, and sending it in for an alignment. I gathered some alignment specs from Jeremy Blackwell and will be using those as a guidline. It's cambered out a little bit in the front, but It will be back in spec on Friday, with updated pics.
