Default JIC Coilovers

I finally got them on the week before last. I did preload all of them. I absolutly love them. It wasnt that ahrd of a install either. It wasnt to hard to preload. I dont know how low I lowered it but, its lower than stock but still a conservative height for daily driving. But has anyone who has Damping Adjustment on there coilovers noticed that on the drivers side it is difficult to adjsut. Are there any tricks to adjusting it. I got it adjusted but, it took me a while and a few foul words. I know someone hads come up with a easier way. Anyways the Coilovers make the car handel so much better not saying that it didnt handel good to start with. It also being lower makes the front of the car even more agressive looking.

i assume you mean the rear driver side strut that is under the fuel lines, making it difficult to adjust.

I forget what it's called, but they sell allen keys that have like a allen-key ball on the long end, so that you can be at an angle and still turn the allen key. You can probably get one at any good hardware store. It's alot easier then trying to use your hand or the tool that comes w/ the struts.

FWIW, if you want better performance you should upgrade your springs. JIC springs are all wrong for the S2000, and from what I hear, almost all their coilovers. They're all too soft.
