suggested presettings for f & r konis

i figured out how to set them all and want to hear feed back on what you all have them set at with the gc coilovers. im looking for a great ride back to the states. im really going to notice the difference with these and the poly bushings and new tires. my struts now are shot and tires are bald. i get the small shakes.

You really only have to worry about how you set the rears, as once they are installed you can't adjust them without removing them. Try around 360 degrees in the firm direction.

also with the weight of the car being heavy like the fat girl from cheers. firm would probly stop her from dragging her belly on the ground (dual exuast). and on the way home im going to have some junk in the trunk (from ak to mo). firm equals quicker rebound right (less bouncing). softer equals slower rebound. am i right? maybe the noise (the swooshing) is from them being soft in the rear (earthworm cause u didnt adjust them)?

Not exactly. Firm = higher dampening. The firmer the setting the less willing the strut is to move.
