Ah, anyone else had a chance to install their extenders? I don't have a dremel, so I'd rather not go through the hassle to not be able to use them yet.
And is that the only decal design? I'm interested, just being curious.

I'm going to be installing another set when I get back into town.
With regards to decals, that is the main design, though there are some with variations in color and size.
Rigo - Any difficulty with the extenders or was it smooth sailing? I am hoping it was an error or issue with the specific car we were working on.

Sorry for the 8club hiatus guys! For those of you who haven't already, feel free to add me on facebook, as I've been able to keep up with many there.
Just to publicly follow up with J's comment, it turned out one member was mailed two sets so I drove over and gave J my personal set once I was contacted by him.
Round 2 is in the works, stay tuned...

actually they worked pretty good for me, easy to adjust with them...except one of them i guess was loose when i got it and the 1st time i turned it it just fell apart on me so i had to take off the coilover and put it back together on the top..lol..
but they do make things alot easier and they are easy to install, ill try to take a picture of the hole i put mine thru tomorrow when i get a chance so people see it

Also, is full soft all the way to the left and full hard all the way to the right? Once I got my extenders on and got home I twisted it all the way to the right and I rubbed a lot more than when it was turned all the way to the left. If anyone could clear this up for my that would be greatly appreciated

I'm hoping to know within the next couple days. I'm hoping we do things a little bigger this time, which will translate to carrying stock.
Will keep this thread updated!

I have the new thread typed, just working out renewing vendor status. Need to message a mod as I think there was an error when I tried updating. Will be sorted tonight though, has to be.

sweet... also I asked in the other thread but didn't really get a conclusive answer. are these coils the same as the stance gr+?
in any case I really want these coils lol... stock height and worn out coils at the moment... no bueno.

I wouldn't say the exact same thing - with Powertrix we have made sure the rear springs are the proper size, and worked out some other kinks from the *other* coilovers. Furthermore, I prefer the green & black over the other color combo, that sealed the deal for me

I actually dont like the green but its not a deal killer at all lol I just want the most for my $$$ and get the performance/stance I want... from all that I have seen Powertrix delivers.

help
This would be for not a daily driver, but weekends with the wife and 3 or 4 track days per summer. These look like you are 3 inches off the ground, are they adjustable back to the original ride height if wanted?

Keep in mind that to adjust ride height on coilovers, you need to take the wheels off. Also, it will require an alignment after adjusting height.
Most will find a height they are happy with and keep it as is, possibly raising for winter.
