Default BuddyCLub RSD question

I have heard in the last few months that BuddyClub Japan has shut down and that the only way to get BuddyClub Racing Spec Dampers is through BuddyClub USA.

Now I've heard that the ones made for BC USA are of lesser quality that the ones built for BC Japan and are prone to leaking. Is there any truth to this??

Was wondering if anyone was running the ones from BC USA and if they've had any problems.

TIA for any insight.

By the way this isn't my account I usually post under 1999all_motoR_teg but I can't seem to log out my buddy's username from the shop.

Get Hypercoil springs+sleeves and Bilsteins.

PM Big Phat R, I think he still has his set that he used before he went with the spoon n1 setup. You'd get a hella deal on the price and he's in Canada too so no duties.

His spring rates were 400/600 if memory serves.

I haven't had any problems with mine that I got back in February. Keep in mind that they aren't really meant for pot-holey street use, which WILL put extra stress on the shocks. I know of at least one guy that has blown his out, but the roads he drove on were far from optimal.
