When you come to the LB meet next week, there should be several cars with the GF210s on.

doesn't this happen to most people after a while with aftermarket springs? the shoks tend to sag I guess. I've always had that issue with whatever brand springs I get (3 times with Tein) That's what happens when we can't get into debt over a set of coilovers

it tends to happen to most shocks after a while if the shocks can't handle past a certain drop height. I could swear I heard someone mention that anythign beyond 1.5 drop would cause the shocks to eventually blow out but someone else told me it is 1.0 so I'm not sure.

Those tanabe are apparently pretty good and popularfor a clean drop, I had tein on my MR2 and eventually it rode like a rock when the shocks eventually couldn't take it anymore and the drop was 1.5 i believe.

GSZABI would probably be the better person to let you in on what would be the deal with these springs as he has them.

They are ok. If you want something soft and more for street they aren't bad. But they are too soft for me. I want the espelier GT's but I am going to have to wait a while for them.
