Where did you put your post decal? I just got stationed at Hood from Italy and when I put my decal on my wipers hit it. I think that it'll end up screwing up my wiper blades or lifting the sticker.

Hay TLFourplay,
Do you know how to adjust the coilovers? My shop is charging me $20 to adjust them each time and I know I can do it, but I just dont know what to do? Can you help me out, here is your coilovers pics that I got from your cardomain.

Yeah. If you look at the green shaft that has the Tein sticker on it, the shock housing follow that up to the threaded section. The part that is silver. On that section is two rings with cubes indented into them that screw up and down the body with the two special spanner wrenches that come with the coilovers. So what you want to do (according to recomendations from Tein) is measure from the exact center of the wheel to the highest point of the wheel well opening. Tein recomends 13". Thats what I have mine set at. So lets say it is 12 7/8". Jack the wheel off the ground, screw the lower ring DOWN which in turn unlocks them and screw the upper ring UP )it will be kinda hard, you are effectively compressing the spring) and let it down to re-measure. Once you get it to where you want it (make sure to push down on the car to ensure the spring is settled) jack the wheel up one last time and securely tighten the lower lock ring to the upper adjustment ring using both spanner wrenches. Hope this helps.

That helps a ton, but one question. Why do they tell you to measure? Does that mean these coilovers can go as low as me rubbing my stcok wheels all the time?
Thanks for the response

I dont really understand your question but I think I might.... Well lets say I spin all my struts all the way down, not tight at all. They will not all be even. I think my right rear actually gets as low as 12 1/2" where as the left rear only gets as low as 12 7/8". So if you just put them all at the same thread count that doesnt mean they will all be at the same point height wise. I dont think it would be possible to lower the car enough with the SS's to rub the stock tires.
