Installed the Ohlins. What can I say about these things that hasn't already been said? They come beautifully packaged. They look amazing you can see the quality. These are some custom valved ones from speedfreaks with 14k swift springs. I only got to drive it around the block so further review on how they feel is to come. I need a corner balance and alignment before I go do any hard driving.

One thing I do notice is the rears don't lower as much but I think I probably need raise the front a hair to have a bit more space between the tire and fender. I figured I'd let it settle for a bit before messing with it any more. On to the pics.

I would recommend the J's rear RCA to get the car lower in the rear if needed. With 12mm RCA in the rear and the DFVs with 13kg in the rear I am just a few higher than the lowest ride height setting. Could even do the 20mm if needed.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for confirming those lower the rear some. Lots of ok info on the front RCA's not as much for the rears. To bad no one has the in stock.

Looks great
