This is how it looks with front Kido coilovers at 30.25" from ground to top of the wheel arch and the rear is 31.25".
Very nice! Look forward to seeing the back dropped more. I love these coilovers, couldn't be happier with mine.
What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

I had been so frustrated of clicking & poping noises on FX. Last month took her to dealer, they said front Strust mounts & rear Shock brackets need to be replaced then those will take care the problem. Bought all those parts on infinitipartsusa.com, after installed those freaking noises still there.... suck.......
Last Friday took FX to the shop, replaced front Engine' mounts & tranmission's mount. Guess what??????. The noises are gone.. Everything is solid again..
Just let everyone knows if you have the same problems.. sooo happy...and looooove to drive the FX again....

Painted your KYB's blue?
+1. Did you use Krylon or Duplicolor for it? Looks great!
I think Jeff was guessing for my question.
:p
Couple more pics for now

No paint guys I installed my Kido coilovers. Its just the Kido blue that they sent out to all of us, well except for Ed and Lance who got orange.

Lol, you fell for it. :tongue (2):
Actually, the blue looks nice. Although it's not a perfect match, I think the Kido blue will blend in nicely with the GTSPEC strut bar. Maybe you should trade up to the beefier and shiner GTSPEC :wink (2):

On the first post he said he had four left at the time. I just got the four points brace from Koso shipped for only $147. That's a steal! No excuses now! :top:
Pretty sure my passenger front hub bearing went out. Turns to the right makes a metal on metal sound. To be expected, I've been getting 70k miles per front bearing. Rears haven't been touched... Yet.
Found a permanent solution to the plastic tee for my Manta Ray intake, brass fittings (thanks Lance).
Go to a hardware store and typically in the plumbing section for sinks, you will find brass tee's. Ideal is to buy 1/8 NPT female tee, then one 1/8 hose connector with 1/8 npt male, two 3/8 hose connectors with 1/8 npt males.
I could only find 1/4 npt so the tee is slightly bigger.
1/4 hose connecters instead of the 3/8 will probably work but very snug.
