Default Eric's Coilover Install

So after we get the weaksauce jack working enough to get the car on jacks we end up busting out the install pretty quick! When you have different people breaking bolts and running for tools it works out pretty well. It looks as though the "stock" Tein setting did well for Eric.

He ran GREAT at Sunday Auto-X.

yeah they are the Flex'.

I'm not positive how much Eric forked over for them.

But you can find these for around 1500 now-a-days.

Anything but stock allows full coilovers on strut-equipped cars.
