When you have the ability to run consistent enough laps to be able to measure the effectiveness of your changes, then you can decide for yourself what you like. Until that time, just drive them.

Hey joseph those are badass coilovers, congrats on the new pick up. Those look like the Sportlines with the eibach springs from germany. 10k front 8k rear?

Here's an owners manual:

What are the spring rates? And why do you feel they're too soft? Also, seeing as how you bought them used they could be old and beat, and thus softer than normal. Maybe get them dyno'd to see if valving and so on is even between sides/front-to-back.

Actually since my friend was the one who was adjusting the dampening on the suspension, I guess he only stiffen it half way instead of full. Now the car feels real good/stiff.
