The spring sits on height adjustment rings just like any other adjustable coilover. Wind them down to lower it, using a C spanner. Easy.

Just remember;

- you'll need to get it aligned again if you change the height

- if you want to do it properly you should get it corner weighted

- if you lower it too much you'll have to get aftermarket adjustable bushed/arms to be able get the alignment right

- if you lower it too much it will handle like crap

yup...

1 measure how much you want to drop by (to the mm)

2 take wheels off

3 on the top there should be 2 adjusters... get a measuring tape and work out how much lower you want it... to the mm

4 drop the bottom one to the desired height and then move the top one down till they touch

5 then tighten by turning in opposite directions

6 put wheel on

7 swear and whinge when you realise its not quite right

8 repeat steps 1-6

9 check for scrubbing

10 roll guards / remove guard lining if req'd

-ISC Coilovers are base height adjustable, please do NOT lower the coilover primarily via the spring seat.

-To stiffen the coilovers you adjust the damper via the top of the strut with the tools provided (If purchased new the tools will be in a small bag with the coilovers, make sure you havn't discarded them along with the bubble wrap etc).

Loosen the clip above the bottom bracket with the c-spanner and then wind the bracket up or down accordingly. If you purchased the coilovers second hand etc and you dont have a tool pack you can purchase one through us at ISC.

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
