Thumbs up Sustec SSR pro coilovers

I just ordered these coil overs and was wondering if anyone here has experience with them. Good, bad, or otherwise!! Also, I got a killer deal on them. $1178 plus $40 for shipping!! Tell me that's not an unreal price. I can get that price for others as well if you are interested PM me or post here. It's not a group buy or anything, but my local shop hooks me up and is willing to help out others in the 7 family. Once again, anyone use or used this suspension setup??

I think Goodfellas has this suspension. Is it the multiple shock adjustments with the upper piller mounts?

Hey that sounds like an awesome deal. Will you always have the hook up for these because once I get the money I'll be looking for you for this nce deal.

Also do you know the spring rates for these coilovers?

Thanks a lot.

Dan, I don't know the spring rates. I will only have this hook up for another month or two. The shop has a limited number of sets left and I'm sure they'l sell pretty quick at that price. Whenver you get the money PM me and I'll check for you. I'll do what I can to hook up anyone in the 7 family. Laterz.

Yes, it includes the upper pillar mounts. It's the whole kit and from what I have read the retail is $2200 and some change! Surely can't beat that price.

Anyone that wants a set PM me so that I can find out for sure and I'll get you the EXACT price shipped or drop shipped to you. Ok? I don't think that the price will change, but if it does it will only be by like $50 or $60. No way it will be more than that. I hope to hear from some of you.

Just as an FYI, Mackin has dropped the Tanabe line into the US. Has anyone else picked them up, cause warranty is going to be a problem I would think then.

They were blowing all the Tanabe stuff out real cheap. Wish I could have picked up some things.

Which of these two are they?

The SS or SR?

SS


SR


Just thought I might help you with some pics and specifics that people should know,

rishie

Do both have same number of damping adjustments? Do you happen to know if they are twin tube or monotube?
