yea seriously i really want to see some...also how's handling?
anybody got pictures of installs? i kind of want to see how you guys have them setup. pictures of the system on the car is basically what im looking for. if you want to throw in some pictures of the exterior of the car after install that would be cool too.

Why so many newb questions dude, search, the handling all depends on how deep you drop, what you set your preload and dampning too, etc... it's all about setup, just cuz you bolt coilovers onto your car doesn't mean it'll handle better, if they are set up improperly, they'll be worse than a shock/spring combo.
Underated, check out astig's car in the post a picture as your car sits now thread, it'll be a couple pages back from the last page.

One thing I really noticed on the handling is how much easier it is to turn. the steering feel is lighter. but it maybe due to the negative front camber and almost perfect toe...my car's rear toe was way off previously thanks to Midas. THere's also less body roll compared to the tein/agx combo. I got the d2's set to about 18/36 on all fours at the moment

alright thanks and sorry for noob question but how low can you get at lowest?
you can sit the frame of the car on the floor if you wanted too... i just got to really try mine out today and they are great. i need and alignment as my toe in the rear is way off (front of the tires stick out quite a bit). but like astig said, the steering does feel lighter and i like the fact that there isnt a huge spring perch in the front like i had with the kyb's. if it rides this good without truely being fine tuned i can only imagine how its going to be after getting corner balanced, aligned, new tires, addco sway bar and a new strut bar

i am SOOO ready for extreme lowness and adjustability i hope my tax return is beautiful!
i have one problem that i havent figured out yet its that no matter how much lower i drop the front driver side it wont go any lower and i cant figure out whats stopping it from going lower, i managed to slam the passenger side but couldnt get the driver side to even out so i had to raise the passenger side up

^I have the same problem, but mine is switched, my driver's side was lower than my passengers, but they were both fully slammed, so I just raised the passenger side up too.

did you check if the swaybar is getting in the way?

He means that when you slam it is the link pushing the swaybar down so its resting on the control arm. On my megan setup, I have custom adjustable end links and when I went too low on the driver side, my end links actually hit the side of the frame rail in the wheel well when I turn. I had to raise it back up, I am in desperate need of a pro alignment.

yup. try disconnecting the end links from the coilovers then lower the car on both sides
