I'm going to ask one of the guys to throw it on the shock dyno this week or next.

It would be great the see force/velocity curves for the dampers as well with the rebound set to the extreme positions, if it's not too much to ask.

Turns out, the springs sent out so far are all incorrect.

According to Greddy, the spring rates are indeed 6F/7R and what was sent so far is all wrong.

Greddy will send me the correct springs later.

So they are just going to exchange the springs or are you getting re-valved dampers to match as well?

Springs exchanged, nothing else.

I'm looking at getting these very soon. Did GReddy USA confirm these were incorrect and that they'd ship you new rear springs, or was this a vendor? I'm trying to figure out if it matters who I order them from, so I can make sure I get the correct rear springs when they become available.

from the sound of things, GReddy is figured that its incorrect and will prob ship it to you directly. If you get it id prob wait for the new springs to arrive. doubt they will pay your for uninstall and reinstall.

We had a set ordered and it was the wrong spring.
Greddy is having the correct spring produced and is in the process of having them powdercoated, once it is done it will be exchanged.

Since the rear uses stock top hats, I strongly advise you to wait until the correct springs are out before buying, because the rears are easy to exchange now in the box, but will require you to disassemble the entire rear suspension if you have it on the car.

Interested in grabbing a set of these as well... Hoping to get these over the Tein Street Flexes.

Waiting on your guys' reviews!!

No review because I don't have a BRZ anymore, but here's how they dyno...

Full hard
Full hard minus 3 adjustments
Full hard minus 6 adjustments

In the end, its up to what you want out of your vehicle.
You can see how the rebound on -6 is a softer rebound earlier on the rebound where as full stiff gives max rebound which would effect body roll.

not a pro here, thats as much as i got to. Defiantly need to check and compare against other shocks you are looking at.

Not very much low speed compression there. I would have expected more and some digression out of them. The t2s and v3 get a pretty good amount when you turn up the bump a little.

Thank you very much. Would you happen to have charts for KW V3 too for comparison?
