New toys and...

A chance for me to just snap some shots. I installed my Koni Yellows into the civic. Install was fun... enjoy!

Thanks, UPS...

OEM Shocks off:

Drilled the hole on the bottom:

Cutting time:

Damn it!!!

Finished cutting:

Empty Cartridge + Koni Yellows =

And put it all together!

And don't forget this...

That is all. Of course I'm missing an assload of steps but this isn't a how-to write up. It's set on soft atw and.... I love the ride! Damn near stock! Complete set of yellows now yay.

Nice picture quality. Kinda wished I bought a Nikon instead of a rebel. Are you using the kit lens?

It does sag in the back... I had to raise it all the way up in the back, and it is still low.

Yeah, that's a D50, but with a Tamron 35-105 f/2.8

Re: New toys and...

why not just order stiff set of rear springs?

you can order custom springs from GC. I think they come with 350lb front and 250lb rears with stock gc's, at least thats how it is for the integras. I have 440lb front and 330lb rears on my ride. Works perfect with my koni's. I set it to about a 2 finger gap in the rear and 1finger in the front.
