Cool
Oh yeah, had my right done 3 years ago also, and now my left. Should be good in a couple months!

Anyway, took these things completely out of the packaging to snap this. Very high quality!

I know! Half of the instruction manual is specific to the IS-F and was printed in 2011. I think the BTO (build to order) is still Japan only.

These coils are beautiful. If I didn't have the KWs already, I'd definitely save up for these.
Can't wait to hear your opinion on them. Hope your recovery is smoother than you'd expect.

Guys and gals - if you're going to PM someone about something, there is no need to post in a thread about it. Send a PM, get a PM.

I've cleaned up the thread. Let's not have discussions about buying, selling, or otherwise keeping our supporting vendors out of the loop. If it weren't for them, the site could not be free.

Rears are out. The ohlins are pre adjusted to stock overall length but I'm not sure how much preload are on the springs. I can't read the instructions but I'm assuming they are pre set to stock height. I also might at least install the Hotchkis rear bar and the rear mega arms.
