I just installed my D2's and everything seems cool. Pretty stiff IMO.
I haven't played much with the dampening b/c someone once posted that they turned the dampening knob too many times and "popped" out. After that happened, that person was not about to adjust the dampening force anymore.

is that true? How do i know what setting i'm at? Kinda hard since they are "32-way". and i'm assuming 'H' is for High, and 'L' is for Low.

Why are you trying to make your coilovers wet?

actually both damping and dampening are fine as i looked up in teh dictionary ;]but most use dampening for some reason ;]

Funny and all. Har Har.
does anyone have a solution or know if i'll hit a stopping point after so many turns on the DAMPING knob?

I have the k-sports and am running 7/5 spring set-up with 1 1/2 turns up front and 1 turn in the rear from fully soft. It might need to be stiffened up a bit. What are you running?

i was running full stiff all around for 9/7, but they're underdamped so i need to see about revalving them. I've swapped in the 7/5 springs and they feel much better now (although def. not as ultra uber stiff). Damping at 6/ 5.5 from soft.
