Pete, thanks for clarifying. I don't think i ever thanked you in person for all the help you've been when i got my CO's a while back - so thank you. I also figured out to extend those rear adjusters (i have a sedan, the extenders exit into the cabin, unlike the coupes which extend to the trunk). Still can't get the rears back to OEM height on the "older" revision of these struts, but it's working out just fine for now

Jarena2104 glad it all worked out for you. We have been testing with a few cars of the G35X's with some height additions so the kit will both allow for the slammed and higher heights for winter months. Not having the vehicle in Florida has limited us on testing and have had to rely on those with the vehicle to provide the information needed. If there are any customers needing this fix please send them our way.

Hey Pete, I just ordered these coils but have a question before I install them. Are these designed to withstand salt and whatever else they put on the roads during the winter, as in NYC? I've heard about some people spraying their coils with something (don't know exactly what) to prevent rust or thread damage? Would these require that? I am debating on whether I should put the coils on for that reason or hold off till the spring. Thanks in advance.

Pete, i've had my BC's for 6 months (pre update) so my rear sits a little lower, but i like the look. Anyway I am pleased with the coils and wanted to know if you've head any estimates on the longevity of this setup. Obviously there are many variables coming into play here, however, do you think they can last 50k miles with 75% highway driving?

still having an issue with the bouncy feeling, it seems i either have to decide if i wanna feel every bump in the road and hear it to, or if i want a somewhat comfy ride but with a bouncy rebound. not quite sure where im going wrong with this setup yet. will play some more.... might consider changing out to kw's if i cant get it worked out.
