Default Tanabe Suspension...

Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone is running full Tanabe coilovers on their 4th Gen, or even 5th Gen? Just wanted to know what you think of them, as far as daily driving, or track use (circut/drag)? Any opinions would be great, and also are the helper springs helpful? Thanks

i have a set and i love them. they have taken a ton of street abuse as i drive the car daily. i put them on over three years ago and they still ride as they did new.

If I used these coilovers wouldn't I not be able to participate in certain auto-X classes?

Tanabe's design is lacking in my personal opinion. Their input shaft is far too small as they don't use a good shock design.

You won't be able to participate in the stock class, but that's it. Everything else really is open.
