You also mentioned you rebuilt your coils, did they replace the springs too? If they did, those have to settle too.
no springs was not changed.. but the springs has been sitting @ my house for roughly 2 months before i install it.. so i figured i should let it sit for a week before making anymore adjustments

Anyone regret getting the Tein SS???

I have the Tein SS with the EDFC (useless) and i don't like the damn thing...Maybe cuz i sat in my bro's 330 with KW's which are WAY Better. I should have spent the extra 300 to pay for the KW's with out adjustable dampening...

Oh yeh, add another indo to the list haha.

Did you fix them yet? If you are planning on getting different ones, get Megans.

Megan - drops lowwww...price is unbeatable...and if you need the shocks rebuilt, its in the U.S (technically a 40 mile drive for me). So you don't have to ship them to Japan like JIC or Tein (if im not wrong)

Besides, the 32 way-adjustment is a plus too...
