S13 Hatch suspension help! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have a 93 240 hatch and I have a question about my struts. I have 4 Kyb struts. Dont know the model though. The 2 front ones have adjustable dampening (has 4 numbers) but I'm not sure how to adjust it. I'll post of some pics if that helps
