I done both sides in 25 minutes which included taking the wheel off and jacking it up
But I had no bolts that got stuck in the bush so I'm lucky I guess

Too much camber and toe, and too high...so need to fix all of that tomorrow. Can you adjust ride height with unsprung weight? Or should I remove the bottom bolt of the shock assembly and then adjust it?

Do I need adjustable front droplinks if I want to play around with ride height via the coilovers on the pre-facelift GPX? Damn droplinks connect to the shock instead of the control arm... :\

Trying to justify $170 adjustable front droplinks from Whiteline vs $50 normal ones from ebay.

Have you lowered your car with the BC coil overs? Normal ones from ebay?
