I went and picked up my new suspension. I'm going to be installing them tomorrow! I can't wait to get them on. Ironic that they cost almost half as much as my car. I got them at a good price non- the less. I'll post pictures of my car with them on tomorrow.

Edit: Oops, Forgot to mention that they are the GP Sports Gr6. Apparently Dori Dori helped tune these coilovers.

Lucky SOB. I wish I could afford that for my car, the suspension is completely worn out.

Where did you purchase them at?

Take lots of pics of the install, and post a writeup/review when your done, please! They look nice. My wife might let me buy them just because they're purple!

This guy is keiichi tsuchiya "Dori Dori":
Creator of Kei Office parts, and one of the founders of D1GP and all that jazz, real popular guy in motorsports.

It appears that there is not any caster adjustment in that front perch.

$1400 for just the fronts? Did you even price the ground-control units? You could of got their AD shocks properly valved with the custom housings, coilovers and caster/camber top plates for much less than that.

I don't know much about suspension workings, but I drooled none the less. Those looking pretty sweet

Do you suspension-savvy gentleman know of a good place some like myself good go and read up to understand all the adjustments and such for our cars?

Where did you pick those up...sweet!

how do you make top plates that control camber AND caster?

mycarisolderthanme

i know who tsuchiya is.. referred to as the drift king, or dori kin. ive never heard "dori dori" used to refer to him. oh well. but why would kei office help tune those when they sell their own?

mycarisolderthanme

you cant, independently. caster is rather hard to tune, and relies on all the other adjustments to get right.

$1400 for all four corners.

And I don't think Keiichi Tsuchiya helped with the production of these coilovers, mainliy because his company sells its own set of coilovers for the FC.

Here are some sites, that have no affiliation with each other that support my statement that keiichi did infact help with the production of this coilover in some part or way. :

He probably just drove a car around a track a couple times and gave them his suggestions. Now they are using it as a gimmick. But still. W00t.
