yeah definatly...great choice on the tanabe's though. the springs actually look like a low spring rate. are they pretty cushy as in comfortable? also, where did you get the 5-bolt conv. from? 300z?

umm
theyre 10k front /8k rear..
which is QUITE stiff for a RWD setup..in fact i only know of one brand that offers a higher spring rate for non-special order..

Nice car.

I was one of the guys who was installing them at the shop today. Not Otay (the AE86 guy), but the korean guy with the grey EH2. Probably don't remember me but anyways, nice car and VERY nice coilovers. Stop by again sometime.
