Coils installed, now we're talkin...
 
Just a quick shot after install. To bad I cant focus my camera but you get the idea, lol. This is how the drop came out of the box on my AWD. The front is pretty much where I want it. The rear may need to be raised a tad. Wheels are 18" sport edition

nice addition and thanx for posting the picture...

who installed your coilover in NJ? Ive been thinking about doing something to minimize the awd gap. I am pondering between H&R and BR coilover, and I am still thinking if I should go to a dealer or not for the install. I do not know any independent shop around my area, but I will definitely change something in the near future though.

Where in jersey are you? I got them installed at C&G Auto Tech in Caldwell. The guy has experience with installing coils mosty on audi's. But he knows his stuff. I had springs on my old VW and now having an experience with coils ill never do springs again, on any car I own. The overall ride quality is alot better with coils.

Just leave the rear. If it doesn't rub, you'll like it!

Thanks for the information! n I will definitely rethink about the coil again... I'm in central Jersey, so I guess Caldwell is within the vicinity. I will definitely mark your trusted mechanic down for future reference, because it's pretty hard to find someone who has experience with this type of job even though it is not the hardest task.

kenny_evo Apr 16, 2011 04:28 PM
