I got them, I'm happy with them, it takes a little adjusting like any other coilover does, but they do the job on the street.
The adjustability is just what I needed as I continue to add and remove weight throughout the customization process. I added a sub and the added weight lowered the back a little and I compensated by adusting the rear coilovers.

I haven't pushed the car on a track yet, so I can't say how the coilovers will perform there, but it's a dramatic improvement on the street (freeway on-ramps and such). I may remove some weight later if I decide to track the car later. The adjustability in the dampening really rocks.

If I decide to track the car, sways and better tires will be a pre-requisite. But overall, they're worth the price (you can usually find them for less than grand if you look hard enough). I'll admit, there are probably better coilovers out there, including the Teins (that EDFC is the hot skillet!!!) but they retail for considerably more.

You know what? I haven't actually taken a tape measure to the car yet since I put them in,... but if my pic is of any help...

And I know why you ask, because for some weird reason they haven't posted the numbers on their site.
