Coilover win!
Fitted yesterday and rides like a charm, the uprated parts and spring rate work well together and the valving/piston size makes for a coilover that handles potholes well and which isn't bouncy. Bum shock dyno approved by myself, mrwrx, and jrecardo.
Thanks to mrwrx, jrecardo, and rex for assisting with the fitment

Jacky / Jack, did you guys take any pictures of the install?

I guess we were too focussed on getting the job done to think about pictures.

The install went into overtime after we got stuck trying to get the rear coilovers onto the hub (didnt lower the coilovers enough and hub mounts didn't want to line up - noob mistake) and also after having to drive a mate to hospital after he got his finger caught between the strut base and hub/control arm!

He was wrestling the original strut out of the hub's strut mount when his hand slipped and got caught between the bottom strut mount and control arm with the weight of spring/car pushing down on his finger.
Went right through the flesh to the bone, just lucky it didn't sever his finger, hit any nerves or tendons!

Only picture I have is coilovers in box
