Question HKS LS+ Install with pics

Installed the HKS LS+ Coilovers today. Can't say enought about HKS's quality. They went in easily and work great! Took me about 3 1/2 hours to put them in. I am sure with a lift you could do it in about an hour and a half. Right now I have them set at the max comfort setting which is 30. They handling is MUCH better than stock. With the stock setup it the front seemed like it was going to break loose when taking corner at high speed, now it sticks like glue.
I am going to back them down to about 20 and try that for a while since they seem a little soft at 30.
I left the height at the factory setting which is about 1.2 in the front and 1" in the rear.
The second pic is at the stock height.

They are great coilovers! I have mine at set at 13 all around (assuming 30 is the softest, 1 is the hardest) on my Z. Seems to be a pretty good trade off of comfort and performance. Your mileage may vary considering the G weighs a little bit more.

Your G is beautiful! Nice set up!

Thanks! Did you buy the camber toe kit?
I had my car aligned and they said the toe was perfect but I was at a -1 on the camber.
With the toe perfect the tires should wear ok... I think?
How does 13 ride?

13 rides pretty good, if you put it much lower, the VDC kicks on too much. I guess thats easy enough to fix by just turning off VDC. The car feels like it is attached to the road!

I installed the Kinetix racing camber and toe rods in the rear. I dont know the specifics, but I was told everything is within factory specs.
