Default coilover install

I picked up a set of taiwan coilovers (tein knock-offs) and installed the rear shocks this morning. Before the install I checked the damping rates and controls/ajustments, all were symetrical and ranged from 30% softer to 30% firmer. After the install, the ride on full soft is great. Rear is able to handle more power sooner without the breaking loose, better weight transfer. I'll have to do some skid pad checks before I can call it better under all conditions. Plan on putting the fronts on tomorrow. Plan on keeping all the ride hights stock for now.

Full install finished, very happy .5 lower front & .7 rear.
