Well I got them. Is there anything I need to know about these things. Is it possible to be too low with them. Just curious don't want to have to replace a set of $400 struts in a couple months. By the way, with the rest of my suspension set-up these things were the icing on the cake, I thought the car hadndled pretty good on the sportlines with the rest of my goodies, but now, holy hell these G.C.'s and KONI's are intense. Any do's and don't's would be appreciated.

Koni's should last you a long time as long as you don't ride them bottomed out or topped out.
i was thinking about getting sport lines i had a post up about it you think i should just get the ground controls instead?
this is an old pic updated pic soon
GC will allow you adjustability as far as height goes, so if you want lower that the sportlines, ya go with GC, otherwise, go with the spring that has the height you want.
Make sure you thoroughly clean everything with brake cleaner or something before trying to adjust...
Make sure the allen key is properly seated before turning it, its pretty easy to strip it...

I could see this as a potential problem, steel bolt + aluminum threads = easily stripped. Thanks for the info guys. I absolutely love this suspension and would recommend it to anyone wanting an upgrade. I've been on sportlines for 6 years between my 96Z and now my 04, these things are about 100 times smoother riding than those. And the handling is next to none, of course I've got a few other suspension goodies, but still, these are totally b.a.

What is considered bottomed out? I'm sitting about a half inch lower than I was on the sportlines in the rear and about a quarter inch lower in the front.

Now with the screw stripping. If you kept a lil anti seize on the threads that should keep it from not coming loose. I would make sure you keep things lubed up and it shouldn't be a big problem I wouldn't think.
