install is very simple....

I would get the tires mounted then do suspension and then strut bar....then drive around for a week/adjust height as you wish....finally get an alignment...

strut bar does not have a setting....the sway bar does...

my sway bar is at stiff and my suspension (ISC N1) is street sport....its 1 level less than race/drag springs....and i have the dampening setup at 28 (with 32 being the stiffest)....

so yeah, overall my suspension setup is very aggressive....titties giggle in that shizz bruh !!

so i put in my isc coilovers today ... set the dampening to around 4 in the front and like 8 in the rear... car feels so great!. little bouncy on the freeway.. noticed that my car is way too low. even at the dampening near full stiffness my tires in the front smack my fenders. i have about .75 inch in between tire and fender...so probably going to raise it up another inch but it feels awesome!

Dont have those coilovers, but H(harder) should be turning clock-wise and S(softer) should be turning counter clock-wise iirc.

very nice....

yes the only thing with this is you will have to remove the strut bar to do any type of adjustment upfront and rear seats for adjustment in the rear....
