Question Tom's Advox coilover - how to adjust?

Does anyone knows how to adjust the damping on this shocks? I see a bleeder screw which indicate it uses air pressure for adjustments. Does anyone have any specs or manuals on this coilovers? Where can I get more info on them?

Nobody has these coilovers? Would I get a better response elsewhere? If so, any suggestions?

these coilovers cost something like $3000 new and from what ive heard, arent really any better than the JIC FLT-A2's which are cheaper. to date, i dont know a single person on CL running the Tom's Coilovers for the LS400. you could contact carson toyota and see if they could find a way for you to purchase a manual from Tom's (they are a certified dealer) and ask around at Lextreme too i guess.

George, I didn't have these coilovers on when I had the car. My friend purchased them after he bought the car off me, but i'll find out from him. These were purchased and installed at Rod Millen Motorsports so they may be more assitance: www.rodmillenstore.com
