Skunk 2 coilovers
Hey guyz i was just wondering if it was possible to raise and lower the car without jacking it up.
And one more question it might sound stooopid but here it goes, well im planning on getting koni yellows for my car, now does that mean i have to replace the rear shocks only because the front suspension is mcferson struts? or to the shocks go on all 4? thnx

it easier if your raise your car if you want to adjust them because it will be less despress, i would raise the car to adjust them. if your have it lower like 2" or so u would have to raise up the car becuase there wont be any room to adjust it cuz, and the konis are just replacements, there a lil modification for them to fit

look at the DIY pix, are u buying skunk2 and koni and getting a pro to install them for u? i say just get ture coilover and do the installation yourself. the money your going to spend for the coilover and shocks and installation is going to cost as much as the tiens or b+g coilovers. it pretty easy to install it

Coilovers you can do that but its a crappy ride. Just go with lowering springs cuz that is just laziness. Most people dont really adjust there coilovers anyways. Skunk2 is good and all but go with springs. Better ride.
