I just swapped a set of KW 2-way adjustable and is a huge difference with the ability to adjust comprsession dampening! I can't wait until the Stance 3-way are released. I am working with them for mounting of the external reservoir right now. My old set of Stances are up for sale b/c I have my heart set on the new 3-way!

Just wanted to give a quick update now that I've had the chance to do some "spirited" driving up on Skyline with various folks...
First off, the coilovers are a dream as far as daily drivability goes. I've taken three different co-workers up for quick 20 minute drives and none of them could find a reason to complain. In fact, until I reminded them they were riding on full coilovers they didn't even mention anything about ride quality. These three are drivers of G35, VW Golf GTI, and brand new GTO, respectively for comparison's sake.
The handling on this thing is unreal (even though I'm still on OEM wheels/rims). I do have negative camber in the rear due to the aggressive drop and will need to get my SPL gear for the back correction (camber/caster) but I really can't believe how fantastic this thing is, especially in mid-corner. It allows me to really maintain speed through the apex and corner exit is extremely fast because of this. I feel absolutely no body lean, whereas the stock suspension rolled quite a bit on the track.
I am really itching to get my new PS2 tires now because I'm still not confident enough to take it to the limits with these OEM ones....

What Stance owner's report has nothing to do with that, not the sort of noise anyone should have to get used to. Though I don't see anyone bringing the solution to market anytime soon,.....rear sperical lower shock mounts. Though I've alway's told myself I'll avoid the whole issue and just ditch the rear coilover mounted springs for the oem location.

whew! after reading ALL 12 pages, im kinda leaning towards these coils. i was looking at the tein flex/basic or the JIC coilovers, but these sounds promising.

I just put them in and love them, install was a breeze, they dont make any noise so far, and even though i am running 265's in the front the streering and turn in are electric.
