Stance GR+Three coilovers, wow

http://www.stance-usa.com/three.php

anyone heard anything about these yet? available for both FD and FC. a triple adjustable external reservoir coilover system. $1995. and from what i have heard about their other coilovers the build quality and design is good.
15-Way Rebound Adjustment, 15-Way Low-speed Bump & 4-Way High-speed Bump Adjustment.
very sweet.

this seems like a very good price for what you get. interested to see if anyone has tried them.

I'm skeptical. Even Bilstein's external reservoirs are said to be not so good, and they're very well thought of. With the disconnecting reservoir, there's a good chance you'll get some air into the oil, which isn't too good. There's just so many things to perfect to get a good shock, even the top brands don't have the ideal shock yet, and I'll bet they spent a lot more development time on theirs.

It's an attractive looking package though, but I'd want to have an experianced person put them on a shock dyno and render a verdict before I spent $2k on them.

yeah totally agree. the price is good if these work well, but the more complicated something is the more things to go wrong.
so i'm interested to see who is using these, and how they turn out.

i didn't get coilovers last year, just go KYB Shocks/Tanabe Springs. i wasn't getting enough track time to justify coilovers. but, thinking about it again.
they have another new model, the GR+Pro, that is basically their GR+ which i have heard only good things about, but they added a helper spring.
up to now from what i hear Stance is one of the best at these price ranges.
