you only change the bottom perch (the one furthest away from the spring). you can manipulate that perch as much as you want it will retain the same spring preload. but since you adjusted your preload, the coilover is not working correctly (not factory specs anymore).

paid 1850 with edfc installed.

first pic w/stock bbs. front: 1 finger space 2 degree camber, rear: flush with 1.5 degree camber. yes you need to buy rear camber bolts.




this is after i got new wheels. had to raise the car as high as i can without rubbing. so its 2 finger spaces in front and 1 finger space in the rear.

never had any axle rubbign issues, mine seem to enjoy bending upwards instead of downwards lol.

i have had some oil pan rubbing issues though, and these constantly worry me.
