With that setup, I think you can hit the track once and a while and start learning the lines. The car is more than capable now.

Sorry for the delay guys.

I had them installed this past saturday and so far Im loving the ride. Im waiting on them to settle before I make my final adjustments and take it in for an alignment.

Love taking turns and coming on and off the ramps from the highways


A few quick pics I snapped with my phone today. I think im going to lower the front end some more.

What I've done in the past for my old car, was spray all the adjustable parts and threads with rust check. They never had rust and easily adjusted when I needed to.

HSD has a protective coating on the threads. so they wont rust. There are different methods for winter protection. One guy I know he lubs up the entire kit, and washes it frequently. The key is to create a barrier between the coilover and the harsh environment. Frequent washing will keep you safe.

once a year you should take it appart and inspect. but key is to keep it clean.
