OEM Style allows you to dump it low. Not true. The swang and bang members messed around with preload to make it sit the way it did. Plus they were all on low negative offsets and 20'' rims.

What does "only for show" mean in regards with the MDU coilovers?

I've read the entire thread from page 1.

What is the final verdict? Are these topspeed coilovers worth the investment for daily driving or are they a bad product?

I drove on eBay ones for 1 year. I replaced rear shocks twice. My fronts are no good when I pulled them out a month ago. The ride was very bouncy. Customer service was great from racingfirst but that is all I can say for pros.

hey guys, I just bought my 2003 coupe last week and the guy I bought it from had mdu coilovers already installed. I love them, but there's ONE problem, the right hand passenger side coilover wasn't "preloaded" from what I understand. I don't know anything about coilover because, yes, i'm a noob. big shock. that's why i'm on here. anyway... could I get some advice or a link on how to do a proper install?
