well, this is as good a place as any to ask:

how do these compare to megans? they are in the same price range.. and aside from colors look to have the set up/parts.

i see they have the same camber adjustment (i like that) but seem to have MORE adjust-ability.

what is the spring and damper rate?

897 shipped

just got them installed today....

best 897 i ever spent. my stock shocks MAY have been pretty bead.. but the car rides SMOOTHER now. they stiff, but forgiving. hardest part is dialing in the ride height. i think, if you decided to drop them as far as they could go, you lay frame.... you aren't going anywhere, cause you wouldn't be able to pick it back up, but they can go LOW.

only real issue: i have a red car.. with purple shocks (and a blue intake.) my car is becoming a rainbow.
hmm... i am going to need a new sig pic....

what?

i went low. it was TOO low. so i brought it back up. height is adjusted just by unlocking the jam nuts and then twisting.

How hard are they to install yourself?

EASY AS PIE. it my friend and i, about 4 hours to install all 4 coilovers, a fender, fender liner, front swaybar endlinks, and outer tierods. AND the fender was smashed... we had to persuade some parts under it, back to their original shape/position.

front installation is:
2 bigass bolts on the bottom
3 nuts up top
antiswabar linkeage nut.

rear is:
2 nuts up top
one bolt on the bottom

no spring compressors are needed or anything.

i dunno what the drop is. i just played with the height, until i found that sweet spot, that looked the way i like it. and yes these replace you shocks, struts, springs, AND upper mounts (and the front upper mounts are adjustable ball joints, for camber adjustment)

)

That's why I was asking. I'm going to look into those lower tie bars then. The chassis flex is annoying when it happens, though the roads around here are pretty good, so it's not like it happens that much. When I was in Montreal though... :scared:

BUT it doesn't even phase the chassis twist. my front and rear still move independent of each other, but i can feel between the wheels, is tighter.

these plus the tie bars really made my car feel like a sports car.. and not a sloppy pig.
