I had KW V3 on my s2000 last year and they worked out great, 3rd in the TT championship just behind the Evo9 and Evo10. I'm switching to Stance AL+Pro this year because I need to drop some mod point for my class. Seeing the success Pete and Tim had on their Evo last year, I'm confident that The Stance coilovers I installed will server their purpose fine for me.
Going OT here, but if this is NASA, didn't they change the rules this year and all adjustable COs get the same points vs in years past when it went by price?

You'd have to be faster.... your wallet would be so much lighter you'd drop .3 in the 1/4 mile

They removed the price constraints but there are still point separation between different type of coilovers. I'm going from coilovers with piggyback reservoir to one without. That will drop 4 points.

Our JRZ's don't use piggybacks either. Little more expensive though....

Regardless of who's coilovers you decide to use..don't forget the shops that have the expertise to set them up..and can give you an educated answer to the inevitable millions of questions you will have. (Don't ask how I know this to be true) Pete
