Much congrats. I think I would have to get a ride in a car that has these in order to justify pulling mine out and getting these. That and the ride would have to be a whole lot better than it already is. Let us know how they feel.

Yes actually! The only real guide I have found reinstalls springs/shocks and not coilovers so I guess I will take it upon myself to do it for everyone.

I will be following this guide. Does anyone have any last minute tips? I see here that you dont need to remove ball joints and you can leave the suspension arm connected. And you can just turn the wheel and not have to remove the ABS lines.

Nice, you might be one of the first in the U.S. to sport these coilovers.

I still prefer the golden goodness of the original CS'.
