These are N1's for an 8-9 Evo. Actually these are now on Slorice's 9 second street car and have my spring package on them.

I see some similarities between the pic you posted of the N1s and the one I did....but they don't look exactly the same with the bottom end of the units where the brackets are...oh well. I guess it doesn't matter much to me as I purchased Hd Bilsteins and GTWORX Springs for my street/occasional trackday EVO. I was just trying to help, but perhaps I'm making it worse. Good luck OP!

Most of them. It really depends on the tire package as the sidewall width and composition come into play with spring selection. We made the change for weight, consistancy, and selection of rates.

We have sold more Apexi N1's than any other coil over suspension that we offer. I don't think you can beat them for the money to be honest. I have them on my RS the ride is good, they work well at the drag strip and have proven to work well autocrossing.

Apexi offers a few different spring rates and IndyEvo has any spring rate you could dream up available with Swift springs for them.

I heard the rumors of the Apexi's and Megans being the same so I asked Apexi directly (we are a dealer). I was told that they are no the same but they are both built in the same factory and that's in China. This is a case of a product that is actually good coming out of that country. The valving is different from what I was told by Apexi.

I have bought/installed and driven both the Apexi's and Megans. I can get a better deal on the Megan's and make more money on them but I prefer the Apexi's for both ride and performance to be honest.

The Apexi's are also lighter so there may be a difference in the body construction or something too. The Apexi's are only 34 pounds for the full set which is 30.6 pounds lighter than stock.

We sell the Apexi's for $1125 and that includes shipping the lower 48 States.

I haven't seen an Apexi N1 fail except in a wreck when the spring/strut has had an actual hit to it. I can't say what the highest amount of miles is on them as I don't know.

Darn, I'm tempted to call Nick/Jarrod and order a set....

but I know if I lower my EVO, I'll bottom out on everything as the roads around NYC suck...

The price David listed is just for the strut kit as it comes from Apexi.

The Indy's Place spec spring package is available. It is lighter by a few pounds, more consistant due to superior materials used, and proven by 9sec9 in testing and some of the quickest and fastest Evo's of 2008.

No specs will be listed as each spring combination is set up per customer. I do not believe it is not fair to the guys that did all the legwork to develop the package just to have other vendors copy and sell this combination.

They are only available with the purchase of the Apexi N1 strut kit from Buschur Racing or AWD Motorsports as I do not sell parts or offer services to the public.

The ride height is adjustable, you can set the height as high or low as you like.
