No problem. heh, kinda weird figuring out what exactly to search for.

Congrats on the HKS's. I had a set of Hipermax 2s on my old FC and they made a HUGE difference on the track...not too brutal on the street, either.

I think that im missing a the thing to turn it from the top, is there any ***** ontop to tell which setting its on? Or you just take a screw driver and turn it up. I wonder if you turn it up to 30 . is that the max 447? I bought them from gothem and didnt see anything that shows any numbers.

Mine came with a little tool, like this:

To adjust, crank them all the way to left (counter clockwise about 15clicks). Now call that "0" and start from there. That's how I adjusted mine, at least.

I have a set of ZEALs on my FD now, and I'm lovin' em.

Just multiply the kg/mm by 56 and you'll have your lbs/in
