Rear Adjustable Tein Coilovers
I need to stiffen up rear coilovers, A shop told me that I need to pull out my interior around my rear seats in my g37 coupe. Does anyone here have any experience doing this? Would it just be easier to pull the coilovers off?

Why would you have to pull out the interior?
The rear struts are mounted to 2 bolt/studs coming down from inside the wheel/tire well.
Looking at this, https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...ono-sport.html, it appears you adjust it from inside the well close to where it bolts down up top. EDFC compatible too!

From FlashGuy:
- Rear adjuster - correct, the rear adjuster is at the top of the coilover; just below the top hat mount. To be exact, looking at the right wheel straight on, it is rotated 45 degrees to the right inside the wheel well.
No extensions were included. The **** is generously large in anticipation of the slightly difficult to reach location. For my application, I would have to slightly raise the car with a floor jack to make a gap big enough for my arms to reach in to adjust. Maybe I can find another way like paying a random child to do it for me every time.
- Spring preload and ride height - the front coil overs where preloaded and set to the recommended height by Tein. The rear spring perch needed to be set. The rear damper height was preset. They also provided a reference settings in the manual for the 370Z, G37 sedan, and G37 coupe. Each was slightly different depending on the vehicle. I'll upload a scan when I get a chance. I followed the manual to the T for the initial install.
