There is no need to preload your coilovers unless you are corner weighing your car.

Just make the collar under the spring snug.

I thought you had to adjust the preload to cause low offset rims from rubbing. ill make sure there tight then thankyou Mr. Lance

I'm actually applying at Linder in Metairie. I found out more about the company last night at the interview, which went really well btw. My girlfriends dad was one of the owners of Linder before Jacobs bought it, so I kind of have pull in any position I want to get into at Jacobs. that 2,500 finders fee is nice too.

Are you interviewing in Metairie (Linder) or in BTR?

I work in a branch of the IT department - Design Technical Services. We do engineering application support. Everything from Autocad/Microstation support thru PDS, simple user support, database work, document management systems, etc.

We are currently hiring like crazy, to the point of opening a second office in BTR. Anybody looking for a job? Check out the Careers link on the corp website... http://www.jacobs.com/ If you are interested, PM me before applying. I can get a finders fee for referring you

How good is the paint job on the painted parts? I might be interested. Also, I have a real good hook up @ Premier Nissan, let me know if you need help with a new Z.

Hey Ryan, I'm interested in the Nismo intake along with the hood. Shoot me a price. Also, what strut bar did you have? I don't think it'll work on an 07 but I may be wrong.

I may be interested in the 5/16 spacer too since my 1/2 makes my chit rub.

paint looks good on the painted parts one scratch on the engine cover where it rubbed on the strut tower bar.
