Default The switch from jap coilovers to gc/8041

So I've been convinced and I'm making the jump from jap coilovers to custom rate gc/8041 race shocks because no company is willing to revalve my apex n1 stateside... Is there any aftermarket tophat/mount that can be used? Even though some may think its a waste of money, I'd rather use an aftermarket tophat similar to the gc hats however they can not be the "extended" style hat


I've searched NASA forums (hc) and Honda-tech archives and haven't been able to find much so any info would be helpful

Skunk2 has some aftermarket top hats. They are on the kingmotorsports website.

If they don't, just swap out the sleeves. Should be pretty straight forward
