I am ordering that for my TII. I haven't used it myself but several of my friends love theirs. And I'd be willing to bet that I can get you the best price on them. PM me if you are interested.

I've ridden in a few Nissan S-chassis with Super Drift before. They are awesome for the track, but if you plan on driving this on the street, I'd go with Type Flex.

Well the flex and the super drift are the same construction except for the different valving, spring rates, and helper spring in the rear. Youll like the super drifts because they will give you more feedbsck when driving.

they arent flex's with small upgrades. They totally redid the shock body and everything. I'm friends with someone who works for Tein and asked him about that personally

I would also like to know what kind of deal you can get on a set of those

I got them on my car now, and my my they kick ***. They are very very bumpy during daily driving but I don't care, it is totally worth the performance. I got mine off e-bay for $1500
