Default Re: Spaceman '08 AW: UPDATE 5/31!! Advan RS 18x9 +29... Coilovers are ON!
Thanks for the compliments guys! I am really happy right now because the stance on this thing is just tities!

I also gotta say that I am pleasantly surprised and happy with these coilovers thus far. The car is still slammed and I have the dampness setting set on 12 right now and the ride is beautiful! I haven't had any clunking issues and the ride feels so much smoother that the stock set-up. I was expecting a bit harsher ride but I think it improved.

Unfortunately I did not have time today to adjust the ride height or take any decent pictures. I will try and get some this week.

rear camber bolts?

where will these bolts go?

I also got the coilovers installed today! Tomorrow I will take some better pictures and I will adjust the ride height. I will also be looking to get an alignment done as soon as possible.

For now...


Spaceman.... Your car is BEAUTIFUL!




Is that the Full drop?

You can go lower than that, I personally wouldn't want to though.

I'm thinking of getting the V-limited replica, but first I need to get and pay for an alignment.
