Anyone running KTS Coilovers?

Anyone have experience with these coilovers:

Seems like a lot of S13/S14 people run them, but I couldn't find anything here when I searched. I've heard good things, and the price (around $1100 I think) is awesome for an inverted monotube, 15 way adjustable with camber plates. They're apparently pretty beefy too. So has anyone run these, especially on an FC?

Here is a shock dyno for their Z32 application:

i used to run them on my S14, they were a very nice setup. the camber plates didnt rattle like some of the tein camber plates ive used. overall the quality is very nice. the spring rates cannot be varied, i rand 8k and 6k, which got to be a little too stiff for me on the streets. also they have a short stroke so you can drop the car pretty good too, but unfortunately the city i live in has quite a bit of steep hills, where i noticed sometimes one wheel would lose contact when cresting these hills.

Thanks for the feedback. I was a little concerned with the spring rates because it looks like they may be 9k and 7k which sounds a little too stiff for me. The website I posted above does not specifically list the spring rates for the FC or FD application, so I'm not 100% sure. Anyone else have any experience with them?
