Tanabe NF210s - installed ***UPDATED with PICS***
Well tonight I got them installed at my buddy's shop. Total time for all 4 was less than an hour....the rear took literally minutes per side but the front were a little tougher becasue of how tight the upper coils are on the new ones....we had a hard time getting a good bite into the springs to collapse them enough to get the tops back on.
First thoughts....the rear look perfect!!!! The front is less than two fingers now but still could be a bit lower. I may take some pics tomorrow if the weather permits but really need to wait the 2-3 weeks for settling.
As for ride, feels great, in fact it turns in much quicker; which I am sure if from the camber change. There is no bouncing and almost zero dive on hard braking.
Right now I rate these a 8 out of 10 and will pass final rating after the 3 weeks is up.
Of course as soon as Tanabe comes out with their coil overs, these will come back off but until then, I am as pleased as one could be!!!
Only good before pic I have:
AFTER PICS!

It rides really nice...
I feel bumps maybe just a hair more but that +5% spring rate made a big difference in handling feel. I have not really been on a spirted run yet since it has been raining here but I hope to get out in the next day or two.
