theyre awsome! end of story. 30 way adjsutable for stiffness and also heigh adjsutable. The build quality is top notch. no noises as of yet. Better ride quality than stock. All this for less than 1000 bucks. Its really convenient if you get the extenders so you can adjust them rears with the seats on. All in all they are a great bargain for coilovers. I'll do another update in a few weeks

after driving to work and back today, i really like the coilovers. They were making some squeeking noises earlier but once it warmed up a bit they stopped. Also i was using them on 11/30 front and 13/30 rear and it wasn't stiff enough for me. I finally dialed them in and im set on 15 front and 17 rear. At that setting, you pretty much feel every single bump but thats kinda what i wanted from my coilovers. At around 100 mph it gets pretty bumpy but IMO a little bumpiness is a small price to pay for 0 body lean and being rock solid stable through turns and at high speed.

^^w0rd! Afterall, it is a high performance automobile!

I rarely carry passengers, so I've got my car dialed in the way I want it. Some complain. They are no longer allowed in the car. Others noticed that I refuse to drive those who have complained, so they kept their mouth shut.

Call on Monday's, that's when his calendar is open. It's pretty much his "set up appointments" day.

You have to call and make an appt. about two weeks in advance. Darrin only does about three cars a day and he is usually booked. Corner balance and alignment was about $220 and Darrin makes sure you are involved in the final outcome of your cars alignment. He really tries to get a feel of what the car will see and be used for.
