which coilover systems are being used based on all these good reviews? I see they have 3 different systems so just curious which ones are getting the reviews.

I bought the 500 series with 8k front and 11k rear. I only had them on the car for about a week and so far its nothing but good things. I will try to post a review later on, but so far i do not regret a thing. The Car handles like its on rails and to my surprise they are very comfortable on the street.

These are the coilovers I'd probably pick up if I wanted to make the switch.

Anyone else running these for either autox or track days? Long term durability?

Also any benifits to the 510 series over the 500 series?

Very close to purchasing a set of these!

I think that the 510 has a larger piston diameter over the 500 series. Im currently shopping around for a super comfy coilover setup so I can slam the car. I think their default street setup comes with a 6k/9k spring setup which works better than a stiffer front/softer rear.

now ive been told u cannot get performance when dropping an evo, however some coilovers cater to that... do these? Like alot of guys are saying how these things are like its on rails. I dunno how low these guys are.

this is how low my car currently is, i am raising it a little bit this summer for better handling but im wondering u think these coilovers will deliver with my setup??
