Oh, I forgot to mention I read the article you prescribed, and I will have someone knowledgeable helping me with tuning.

Theoretically speaking...How much lateral grip do you suppose our cars could generate on a skidpad w/this system, some upgraded sways, and wider tyres?? Anyone?

the d-specs are just shocks, these are full coilovers, you should compare these with HKS Hipermaxes, JIC (forget the name), Tein Flexes. And im tempted into getting thsee myself.

Let's put it this way...I have JIC's on the car....and I like them.
I have a fried with the KW's on his STI...that I drove before and after the coilovers...and the KW's are awesome.
I'm still buying a set....so that might help you decide.
I wish I had the 5K for what I'd like to buy...but I have to feed my family before the car

comon feras if you buy flexs I wont install em for you adding to the cost of buying an inferior product, if your worried about too many options for adjustment you'll have me who will be posting the "best performace" settings possible so you need not really worry.

These are superior coilovers at an amazing price. There's not anything I've seen, technically, that can touch them for anywhere near this money.
Those that want to tune their track performance to the 'neth' degree should be all over these. A great GB opportunity - go for it
