Default jdm potenza suspension?

Anybody heard of them or better yet used the full suspension on their lude? Very curious as I have not been able to find much information on them.

I saw a beat up set on ebay the other day for like $100 plus shipping. I looked for info too just out of curiosity but found little.

most aftermarket companies just get showa to revalve a set of oem shocks for them and then throw their name on it after throwing on a set of springs. mugen is a good example of this.

haha never heard of them.

that's what we're talking about right? it does just look like oem shocks, probably revalved. i don't think it's worth the headache of finding out imo.

For the $200 it would cost to get them, I have to say I agree. Not worth it at all.
