I also have to consider that I'm still pretty much at stock weight.. and not 3/400lbs less.
for sure isn't too forgiving.. I'll take that.. but feels still decent. (maybe the 17" are helping).
a GT3 feels stiffer... and more bouncy upfront that my car... I don't completely buy that story.

Where can we purchase these?
Search DaveH, he posted extensively on his impression's of the setup on the track. They are easy to adjust. Front adjust's rebound from the top of the piston shaft by lifting the hood. The fronts adjust compression by you laying flat on the ground just behind the tire centerline with a screw driver in hand, you reach under the car and make the adjustment. For the rear, you adjust compression the same as the front. Rear rebound is adjusted by jacking the rear using a floor jack at the diff. With enough room now showping at the tops of the tires in the fender wells, you reach up and adjust rebound just below the upper shock mounts in a slotted window built into the top of the shock. Koni yellows adjust rebound in the exact same way, no need to drop a shock their either.
I ran them with 560/427 rates, in kit form then come with 525/425 rates. I tested mine for a very short time with 650lbs fronts. And while back I also tried 448lbs fronts (too soft). Performance wise, the 560/427 setup really did rock. In my case their undoing was the ride quality during my commute.
