camber plates are non existent on our cars due to our suspension geometry we are double wishbone.
changing the angle of the shock makes no difference on camber.

So rumor has it the spring rates for the Stance coilovers have changed. I'm specifically looking at the OEM-rear style coilovers shown below. Initially in this thread the rates were advertised as 11k/5k, however Auto_RnD now states that they are 12k/11k. Can anyone confirm that these were changed and for what specific reasons (i.e., feedback from customers, etc)?

Thanks!

Looks like they changed the rear from True Coilover type to separate shock and spring like Tein. That's why the spring rates changed.

this thread raised from the dead... This thread started over a year ago. They've since cancelled production of the OEM style coilover pictured above and also introduced a new remote res. true coilover setup.

Ah, thanks for the info. I recognized the thread age, but it wasn't clear anywhere that the OEM-rear style had been cancelled, but I had seen the external reservour units mentioned on my350z and the stance website.

So in the beginning of this thread, the full coilover rear set (now the only style GR+ unit) was listed as 14k/11k, which still differs from the 12k/11k I was told recently. Additionally, it differs from the website which lists the parts as 12k/5k (probably the most reliable source for the current rates?). I realize there is a difference in the comparable rear rates based on the mounting point (translating to roughtly a 672/450 pounds/in rate setup in the OEM locations).

What are people's comments on these current rates and the Stance coilover relative performance in the current market? I know from threads last year that some people had issues with destroying the bushing in the shock mounting point for the rear true coilover setup, resulting in noise and questionable reliability. I haven't seen any aftermarket bushing solution for this location yet. Is this still a real concern? I appreciate any comments. Thanks guys.

Where is drumma022 when you need him? I'm waiting it out for the 3-way Stance coilovers, probably throw some diff bushings in also.

currently I have these on for 3days and I can say they are good performing coilovers on the street. not harsh just firm. I live in Riverside and the streets here sucks and there are soo many speed bumps but I'm feel stance does good job on these.
no track experience yet.
gotta hurry up and get camber kit...
