Thanks I appreciate it, they are as advertised and a great set of coilovers. Also just to refresh my memory which car did you have at the test and tune?

If you were 'blown away' by CG, you'll love Ammo NYC even more.

I have seen Ammo NYC videos online they are very informative I have yet to try out any of their products yet. Only heard good reviews.

After installing my FP Spec Ohlin DFVs I never put my trunk carpet back in fully. I didn’t want to keep removing it when I wanted to change damper settings. Always thought this left the car looking incomplete every time the trunk opened. But SakeBomb Garage developed some rear remote adjusters. The rear remote adjusters allows you to retain all of the trunk carpet panels while still being able to adjust your dampers. It even solves the need to remove the fuel filler neck bolt just to get access to the driver side damper if you have actual human sized hands. The install process went easy, cut small access hole in the carpet, routed the remote adjuster through the trunk and tighen it down to the coilovers. After the install I am really happy with the final clean look. Most importantly the feel of the adjustment clicks are still very well pronounced.


Passenger Side
Drivers Side


Also installed a Blox shorty antenna for a cleaner look. Radio reception is still good.

Do the remote adjusters just slip over the knob?

Yes, the remote adjusters just slip over and attach to the damper adjustment knobs.
