And yesterday we installed some test coilovers from Megan Racing. Very decent quality coilover with lots more adjustment to go lower, but ill leave it with a 2 finger gap for now... also added rear spacers for good measure. Ill do a small review of the coilovers after they break in and the ride height settles :)

Looking good. I thought your username looked familiar. I liked a bunch of your photos in the past, haha.

How is the suspension travel w/ the MR coilovers? previous gen Fits complained of reduced suspension travel and harsh ride quality (from hitting bumpstops). any issues w/ the GK chassis?

studykat Jul 18, 2014 04:36 PM

Oh hey man! (Tofu shop) did you just add me on IG? Haha

At the moment the coilovers feel like the car is on factory (sport tuned) suspension. I have a 2 finger gap and the dampers are at full soft. Haven't hit any bump stop yet, but I'll post another update in a week or 2 when everything has settled in. On the older gen Fit was it the front or the rear that has problems?

TofuShop Jul 18, 2014 04:46 PM

Yup - that's me on IG

That's good, interested in seeing the final product. People complained about the rear on previous gens.

All available colors look good on the Fit. The white though does make a two-tone stand out on some extra addons. I even like how the present black plastic features stand out on your white. What is also nice that white hides dirt more than black.

Haha yeah, all the colors look pretty good. I like the yellow and Black Berry Pearl a lot as well, but you can never go wrong with white haha

Rear suspension has settled a bit after a couple days...

rikerr - did you mean a photo like this?

Like how much we've spent so far?? We are in the 626 and so far the Megan Racing coilovers are borrowed testers and the CE28's i've had sitting in the garage with lots of other wheels haha

Getting tint soon and red H badges as soon as i figure out what other cars are the same size haha

mike410b Aug 13, 2014 01:09 AM

CE's look cool dude!

If only I'd reached out to you about my SSR's before you got them :p (Cody from FB)

i meant a breakdown of the price you paid at the dealer, something like this:

sticker price
taxes
doc fees

total price
