Okay.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. Tein has done the same thing recently, talking about a new process they use for corrosion prevention on their coilovers. Most folks know that Teins used to rust like a mofo.

*** Now if YOU just came out with your solution allowing me to run Ohlins or Moton shocks, then I'd be all set and not have to fiddle with the lower end crap anymore

Oh goody!

So are you running the Ohlins then? And if so, which struts are you using? TTX40?

you know, I looked at a set of Flag's yesterday and really like how they kept the remote res. away from the brakes by mounting them at the top under the pillowball mount.

Would save me from mouting the res somewhere. I was wondering if the EVO kit will bolt up in front (rear very different, but found some that k=look the same as us). Mounts look very familiar.

Anyways, pics:

I can't find a full pic of KW's actual setup for our cars, but from the looks, you don't get camber plates or mounts with the KW's.

Here's what I want, something like this:

or this (buddy's Motons)

has anyone tried to screw on the bottom k-sport(etc) made for us coilover on a better coilover not made for us? I wonder how interchangeable parts are since most have the same spring diameter

Yeah, I figured he was either running them, or was going to. Come to think of it, I started this thread when I saw the Ohlins stickers plastered on his car in the NG pics.

I'd be super happy if we could run a Flag or TTX setup. Heck, at this point, I'd even settle for the DFV setup.
