finally!!!

fully adjustable ride height and dampening force adjustable. sooo sick.. the car turns like it's on rails now and almost zero body roll. still got alot of suspension work to do left... tie rods, sway bars, bushings, strut bars etc. also need to roll the fenders and throw on wheel spacers, but ohhh my god this thing is fun now!

i have both the front and back set flush with the fender.

special thanks to tennessee and justin forrest for helping me with the install.

Very Happy

UPDATE: page 3. WORK euroline dh's

no, the dent you put in my dash came out fully thank god haha. Laughing

and dude, you should have seen it when we first installed the back, i set it to the lowest setting possible to see where it would put it, and then raise it from there... it was SLAMMED! looked like it had airbags haha.. but i raised it back up to get it flush to make it look more like a race car, and less like a gangster car. can still go ALOT lower if i wanted. but i don't want to Laughing

how's the ride on the HA's? is it harsh?

i went with the SS because i didn't want too harsh of a ride, and becase it's a lex i wanted to keep the whole luxury/comfort theme. they feel stock on the lowest settings, and when i stiffen them up they feel REALLY good.

naw,ive got them at the edge of comfort/sport setting. it rides great and track real smooth in the corners.You can also make them as hard as a wedding dick for the track and strip too.

hows the ride get with them when you lower them?

triggamike, not bad at all, even on 5 clicks it feels stock, 0 feels softer then stock, and 16 feels really really stiff. These are MK4 supra coilovers.

i'm also getting EDFC so i can cruise with them soft and then press a button when i want to get crazy.
