Wow, that looks so sick!! Probably one of my favorite stances I've seen on an xi..

How are H&R coils compared to KW?

bought it from tischer. Yeah I installed it myself, you just need to drop it into 2nd and then pull. Just don't pull too hard, the stock knob hurts when it's going mach 2 directly into your forehead.

Very nice. I may upgrade my suspension to coilovers next Spring. I will definitely look for your reviews after you have driven on them for a few months.

ska///235i · 11-03-2009, 10:06 PM

NICE!!!

Pretty painless install. Only took me a few minutes to get mine in, following the guide in the DIY section here.

Now to work on those pedals at some point. It's pitch black everyday before I even leave work.

DJKhan85 · 11-03-2009, 10:42 PM

Are the coils noisy at all? I had a pair of ksport coils on my previous car and the noises drove me bonkers...
