I was told that the 'floaty' feeling during fast driving over uneven surfaces will be gone since the shocks will be stiff; here's hoping for that being true. I didn't want to get coils because I have Swift springs and they are great from personal experience of 4K miles on em now. I've read nothing but good things about Koni + Swift on here.

Anyways, I'll report back after Seb@SpecialtyZ does the install. I'll also ask him to install the 20/25MM spacers for me since the wheels will be off anyway. I got base wheels and will post pics after all is done.

Thanks to everyone on this forum for great info in this thread. Of all the car fourms I've checked out, this one is really special... without bias

Hey onzedge, what settings are you using front/rear for your shocks?

I set the rears to one click lower (softer) than the middle setting and the fronts right in the middle. I originally had the fronts and rears one click stiffer than these settings, but the car was too "bouncy" and had to soften them by one click each to my current settings. Having the fronts slightly stiffer than the rears helps a great deal with turn-in.
