it will be at my house this coming friday, but need to wait for the camberkit from us also which will be here next week.

i m planning to DIY with ben since he's quite pro at it and installed coilovers before, but i need to get it align after that, would it be much dmg to my tyres if i drive around 15km without align.

with the tein ss, what damper setting would u recommend for street use (generally a spirited driver =p) and how low to go to not lose performance?

Good stuff Leon.We'll have to meet up and compare suspension setups as i'd be interested to see what your car rides/handles like as i haven't driven a car with coilovers.PS.you can drive mine as well if you like!!!Driving 15 kms to get alignment will be no problem.

Good stuff Buster. Don't forget to take DIY pics!

Driving 15km without alignment should be fine, but i wouldn't drive more than that. Install everything in one hit (including camber kit) and get a full alignment done and you should be good to go.

Regarding the damper settings, go full soft and move up from there until you find a point you are comfortable with. I'd drop it about an inch or so front and back but not more as you might encounter clearance issues with the lower tie bar over speed bumps. I've bent mine slightly already and I only dropped it about 3cm.

Good luck!
