Hey guys. I just bought a car with KEI office coil overs on the front only. Its for a 180sx. The problem is that I do not have a key to lower the height of the car, and I want it lower. Also, KEI office no longer makes coilovers. What is the best solution to this? I have heard someone say HKS keys might fit it, but I am having huge issues here trying to figure out how to lower this car. Any help is appreciated!

By key, do you mean the spanner wrenches?If so Tein and K sport sell them from $20-$35 or so.Plan B: Use really big channel lock pliers to turn the lock rings or use a hammer and (preferably) a brass punch. Not as fancy as the appropriate tool, but effective none-the-less.

pfff... just use a hammer and flathead screwdriver method. place the flathead against the bottom spanner on the left side (clockwise looking down on the spanner) and pound it loose. then adjust it.
