I've got these coming in the mail, I've heard good things about them, plus they don't cost alot.

When I was posted to Queensland a lot of guys were using them whenever the 86 club was at Queensland Raceway.

With the stock setup and the factory PS4's it felt decent on the track, but I could still use some additional grip in lower to mid speed corners.
Honestly, you should consider the CSG Spec Tein Flex A. The Flex A have a hydraulic bump stop which should make it better for DD as well. Also, the Tein Flex Z cannot be rebuilt once they wear out...

Most people won't rebuild, but if they need to the dampener swaps out, and you retain everything else. You're better off getting a new set with new mounts at that point
