HI,

if your going to a few drift events you should be going with the gf210s (grip feel) the nf210 (natural feel) actually drops the car lower then then gf210 i have em on my roadster and i wouldn't dare track it specially without aftermarket shocks

I can't speak on the NF210's but I just installed the GF210's on my 03 base last month and so far I love them. Heres a pic of the GF210's with my stock 17" wheels, I'm awaiting delivery of my 18" NT03+M's.

I think the GF210 has a better feel to it. It actually rides like stock and a slight improvement in cornering.



We have them in stock, http://www.mynismo.com/products/?id=2762

With the GF210, did you get a camber kit though to stay within spec?

This is the GF210 at the alignment shop that we could not use!!! Heading out an extra 30 minutes across town, we found out that the factory alignment points are sufficient to get the car back into spec.

Why didn't you get out some 2x4's? That's what I've always done
