Just installed these last night. Paid $849 plus shipping cane out to $899. I found them for $880 shipped but I really like my vendor. Anyways, so far so good. With 14kgF 12kgR spring rates they are very stiff yet I don't feel that they are that bad. I have them set in the middle on the dampening settings and it seems as though the compression and rebound rates make it more comfortable to drive even with the stiffer spring rates. They came with all necessary hardware, two adjustment extenders for the rears and two ride height adjustment wrenches. I dropped 1" all the way around. The rear ride height was actually perfect right out of the box and I don't even have to roll my fenders at my current height. The fronts were actually higher than stock when initially installed but after a little bit of adjusting, they settled in close to perfect. I will post some pictures up when I get a chance. My car is my daily driver and is used once to twice a month for autocross and about once every two to three months for time trials. As soon as I get some track time in with them I will give my amateur review of what I think of them. I've already found myself taking turns alot faster than I normally do but with so much of the body roll eliminated, I don't even notice that I'm going as fast as I am. All in all I am impressed with my sub $900 coilovers at this early point in time. Also, I believe but could be wrong, that they retail for $1450 but nobody really charges that much for them.

Everything in picture is what came with the coilovers. minus bubble wrap and individual boxes for each coil (well packaged i should add)
waiting on a few other components to arrive to do get everything installed one day versus back and forth as items arrive.

Sorry for the late reply. I don't check this thread often. The street series are oem style and the track series are true coilover design. Street series uses 12kg front springs and 10kg rear springs and the track series uses 14kg fronts and 12kg rears. I don't have any pics to put up since I can't do that on my phone and I don't bother having Internet at the house anymore lol. Feel free to pm me your number and I can take some pics for you and text or email them to you if you'd like.

That looks good, yes please give a write up about these because they seem to be what I am leaning toward. Also these are true coilovers and not Oem so do you need any extra parts or does it come with everything you needs to install and run them properly?
