Anyone installed QA-1 coil-overs on the rear? Do you like them? Would you do it again? Pictures of the install?

Skew,
Yes I did. Thank you so much for your help.

Are you talking about a true coil over setup on the rear or using coil over springs rather than regular springs? If you're just asking about the springs, I replied with pics on your other thread, same subject. HTH, Scott
 
I have just put QA-1 double adjustable coilovers and an rj race cars anti-roll bar under my car,looks killer,cant wait to finish this thing to test it all out...L.O.L....:biggrin:
 
QWKSHT,
Did you reinforce the lower shock mount on your car? Can you send me some photos of the install? e-mail to "alphaenvirmgt@vnet.net". Where did you get the coilovers? Cost?
