Looks great! Do you have any pics of the RCA's installed in your car? I just bought some 19's and I'm shopping
for coilovers RCA's are new to me.

Not to hate on your parade because I am on Megan's as well. I loved them for the first 6 months. But now they are a bit "saggy" They bounce all the time and I think my rear passenger damping is blown. Can't wait to get rid of these crap coils. They are ok for the money I guess. Looks good man!

Default Looks great!!!

Thanks for the pic's. I going to be doing the same to my gs. just put 19's in it. Going to drop it next.
I'm thinking 1.5 inches.I've been eyeing the Megan ez streets. Some guys say they are soft. Sounds like you think they are perfect. I'm also doing a LS400 brake swap so I have to get some RCA's to make them fit.I think I'll do the 18mm. You had to reset all your coilovers after install them right?, because they add drop? Thanks just trying to edjamakate my self.

Default Crap!

Every time I find a coilover some body has problems with them.(Aristo722 ). I was looking
at Tein coilovers but found a lot of people had problems with them to. How about K sports?

RCA stands for roll center adapter . they go I between the ball joint and lower the car in mm depending on what size RCA you have.

Fortune Auto, PBM and BC are my favorite "low cost" coilovers. Adjustable spring rates (with or without Swift spring upgrade) and rebuildable with a decent turnaround time.
