Tanabe springs cool?
What about these tanabe springs? I know that a few of you guys have the tanabe springs so what do you think? There are two available, the natural feeling and the grip feeling. the natural is +10% and the grip is +20- 30% stiffer than the stock ride. The drop is 1.4 in the front and 1.2 in the rear. The set is about $200 tell me what you think. I know that Shag1 had some problems, but he quickly resolved them. Are they some good ones?

There a nice set of springs. They sit even. I have the stiffer ones and they still ride pretty smooth. Just remember to wrap the perch ends in tape or rubber so they don't make any noise.

A is a bit tighter but the body roll is still there. Springs by themselves will never get rid of body roll. I cut about 2inches from the stops so I don't have any problems with hitting. I used stock struts and it took about an hour to install. Paid $130 for the springs and installed them myself on a rack.
