buddy club and megan coilovers
Front: 8 Clicks from the furthest right going to the left.
Rears: 13 Clicks from the furthest right going to the left.
You will have a stiffer setting in the front so you can lower your car and it wont rub on bumps as much.
And you will have a softer setting in the rear so it rides much smoother.
You can play around those number of clicks I gave you to your likely.

k just got the coilovers one question the rears are self explanitory now the fronts come with this red aluminum cup piece i know i have to re use the stock upper mount but where would this red piece go ??
Ok. So lets start from the bottom up on pieces that will make a complete assembly of your front coilovers:
First - BC Strut Base
Second - BC Shock
Strut Base and Shock already come assembled
Third - BC Spring
Fourth - That red piece facing the cone shape downward(big end down) so that it sits on top of the spring. Its basically you upper spring plate.
Now time to retrieve two piece needed from your stock assembly.
Remove the upper mount which is of course already removable without having to compress the spring. Then for the other piece you need, compress the spring using a spring compressor and take off the black o-ring that looks like a round thick black rubber. (no homo lol).
Going back to your BC assembly.
Fifth - Use the little black rubber ontop of the red cone shape anodized piece we talked about earlier. You will see how they fit perfectly.
Sixth - Use the locking nut to assemble everything up.
Seventh - Place the top rubber mount onto the assembly.
Please make sure to preset your spring load.
If you have any pieces from the BC assembly that are still in the box and have not been used in my steps above, let me know and I will let you know where they go.

I had roughly 1 inch of thread space. and I'm pretty much slammed.
I will PM you my cell number. Maybe you can take pics of the coilover as the setup is now and I can tell you how low you can go to where you wont run and be safe to daily drive.
I used a 17mm 3/8 drive socket to space between the 2 sets of locks so I could make sure its even.on.both sides but the front measures 21" from bottom of rim to fender rear measures 20.5". I doubt the front will settle a half inch
