Well since there was no review on these I'd thought I'd help incase anyone was wondering on these. The coilover is 32 way adjustablity and the spring rates are 10k in the front and 8k in the rear. These were made in Taiwan .

As far as the install went it was pretty straight forward. The rear strut was missing a nut which was easily sourced through the "nut and bolt" bag. The nut that was missing was the one on the bottom of the strut. The stock strut is threaded. However since it was a floor display model and they didn't include the instructions or box this could have been the reason. The rear spring is located in the oem location. When the rear spring was installed it seemed loose however when the car was lowered off the rack it was secured in place. The rear spring is also very very tiny compared to the tein s-techs. Installer said that the rear spring has a lot more preload then tein when adjusting height. (Note: installer sees alot of tein suspension) NO noise at all.

As far as height goes without any adjustment the front has about a 2 finger gap and the rear was sitting on the tire literally. So we adjusted the rear to the highest setting and I now have about a 2 finger gap as well. More precisely a little less then an inch gap. The front I believe could probably go as low as 2 inchs more (but don't quote me on this) Tire size is 245/45/18 in the rear and 225/45/18 in the front. Rim size is 9.5 in the rear but offset is unknown. Front size is unknown but I want to say 8.5 or 9.

We set the damper to 10 out of 32. For the ride comfort on this setting it is very comfortable. Compared to the stock strut with s-techs the coilover felt as if it was stock a stock ride(don't really know how stock feels since I bought the car with drop springs on it). However on 10 setting it feels a little to soft for me. The only draw back is that to adjust the rear strut it must be removed completely off the car. Which after some research found this to be a common thing. Apexi does not offer an adjustablity controller like the edfc. Also, the adjustablity **** is not really defined as say teins. I heard when adjusting the damper on teins there is a real noticable click to them when you turn them. On the Apexi you really go to pay attention to them.
My main concern was comfort as well as height adjustablity. I can say that I am pleased with the results. Once I can get the rear stiffer I will post my results on handling. I am not a track racer though. I used to race dsm 1/4 mile style was pretty much it for me so take my handling advice with a grain of salt. Which brings me to my next question. For all those with coilovers to you run the same stiffness all the way around or is the front stiffer then the rear or vise versa?

 

sup mang, congrats on the new coilovers, im glad ur happy with them... i run the same stiffness all around.

 

nice review, thanks. get some 30 series tires and drop um lower. btw, why do you want 2 finger gaps? didn't just the s-techs drop it more than that?

 

I had some tire rubbing issues with the s-techs. Don't know why? Think I'll just roll the fender and maybe negative the rear a little.

 

For a rwd, you'd usually run a stiffer front damping and slightly softer rear damping to control the car.

More rear damping would increase oversteer tendencies.

 

post some pics if u can

 

"the rear spring has a lot more preload then tein when adjusting height."

i don't know what this mean..

i'm thinking about getting a used set.... have you found out really how low you can go? how would you compare this to other coilovers, like buddy club, stance, etc?

i have no noise issues at all. i'm pretty confident that full coilover rear is good too since top tuners run it as well.
