well these showed up today. got them for $690 w/shipping, msrp is $1150. gotta love group buys. i dont know exactly when im going to install them yet.

Let us know how they work out. I am wondering how they handle since K-sport does not valve the shocks for certain spring rates.

will do. are you looking for custom spring rates b/c i believe you can contact ksport and they can do custom valving for different applications.

yeah its like christmas all over again. the brakes were a necessity b/c the rotors were done, and the suspension was too good of a deal to pass up.

I have JIC coilovers. JIC was a bunch of dicks with the group buy that we organized, so they sent over half of us the wrong spring rates. I asked for 7K front 6K rear, and they sent me 6K/4K! Hopefully I will be buying some 6K rear springs this spring/summer.

yeah i got 7/6. the standard for this buy was 7/5. ksport says that you can change the spring rate +or-2k without having to revalve the dampeners.

s14drftstn · 02-26-2006, 10:57 AM

BlackBulletTSi · 02-26-2006, 01:34 PM

specVogel · 02-26-2006, 02:41 PM

specVogel · 02-26-2006, 04:41 PM

2000MRDC2 · 02-26-2006, 05:16 PM

u should raise the back up a little bit its sagging a little bit doesnt look too good u should raise it up a tad bit

specVogel · 02-26-2006, 05:24 PM

it might be the pics because i measured from fender to the ground all the way around and all four corners were within 3/16 of an inch to each other.

IIdiceII · 03-19-2006, 11:25 PM

agreed, the rear end seems to sag a bit but its probably just the pics or the way the car was designed.

Jeffros Spec V · 03-26-2006, 05:05 PM

I'd raise the rear a little aswell but thats just me.
