I'll probably adjust the preload later on when I get the time. Thanks for the input.

Yes, they can be set to stock height. Right now they can go down about .5" in the rear and about 1.25" up front but I like where they are at now.

You can only go .5" lower than stock ride height in the rear? That sucks.

Yea, the rear doesnt have that much to play with. But it will tuck if I lower it anymore.

I changed the rear to full stiff and the front is still at 2 away from full stiff.

The car definately rides stiffer. Not as easy on ya. No more caddy ride. The car seems to come around better if ya can understand what I'm saying. I think I'll keep it at this level.

You should be able to get another .25 by adding a bit more preload to the rear springs.

Sounds to me like you like the ease of getting it to drift in the rear.

How do you adjust the preload, or what do you mean by that technical term. LOL... This is my first time with coilovers on my old RSX I had koni's with tein springs so, its all new.

I love drifting. Still learning while trying to keeping it safe so I'm not goin crazy with it. lol

I'm now at full stiff all around... Car feels the same - ride...might even be a little smoother. Handles pretty close to the same... Can't feel much of a difference from 13 (f) and 15 (r).
