Finally after my bank being annoying all week I've finally ordered my meister r coilovers can't wait to get them next week =)

Are coilovers hard to fit never fitted them before, i had a set on my kit car but never fitted or even looked at them just knew they were gaz lol
Is it as simple as 3/4 bolts on the top and 2 on the bottom then the brake pipe holder or something like that?

Yes but things won't line up the same on new suspension so you will need an alignment afterwards, and it will need to settle for a week or two before you do. I would have thought ARB droplinks will be your biggest pain.
You'll also need to set the height and the damping levels. Easiest to set them to a base level before you put the struts on the car and then just do fine adjustment once they're on. Set it a few levels harder at the front than the rear and go from there.

The droplinks won't need removing on the front - so no problems there, the backs are dead easy

fitting coilovers to the is200 is extremely easy. Did it with my dad in a matter of hours. Only reason it took so long is because I had a stubborn bit at the back.

Good to hear bandido your the reason I've brought the meisters as your reviews are the best I've heard so for you to say that makes me think thank god lol think either Saturday or Sunday ill fit them then =) see how long my splitter lasts ay haha

Yeah dead easy, just need a decent length breaker to push the rear arm down enough to get them out.

Got some big ass lengths of scaffold in the garage so hopefully they'll be something I can use there can't wait to fit them now then ill sort the arches =)
