HSD coilovers available?
 
So i just contacted a performance shop that carries HSDs and placed my order for the coilovers.

Paid about 1250$ , its introduction price which is pretty sweet for HSDs

I had HSD HR Coilovers on my Evo 9 and i loved them, really nice.
The only thing that bothed me was that they placed the adjusting knob on the bottom of the coilover ( for the front ).
Which seems kinda retarded?

Hmmm, This is going to be my first set of coil overs from HSD :)
So i'm pretty stoked, maybe it was just for the evo 9 that the adjusting knob was in front?

If they're inverted then that's pretty normal.

I have the HSD HR series on my Supra. Love them. Never had any complaints or problems. I tracked the car 3 times with them on. Since these are the only coilovers I've ever run, I cannot provide a comparison to other brands. Definitely a cost-effective way to lower your stance and improve handling. I'll likely get a set of these for the FR-S too.

Hmmm...I had HSD's on my WRX and did not like them. No matter what I did with the damping, the ride sucked and handled like crap. The front was underdamped and the rear was overdamped. The adjustment didn't do squat. I really understood just how bad they were when I ponied up for a set of AST 4100's custom valved by TiC for crappy American roads. The AST's absolutely slay the HSD's in ride quality, braking and cornering. Yes, braking. I don't know how important that is to you, but when your ABS is engaging over rough road because the HSD's can't keep your tires on the road and the car isn't slowing down I think you'll come to realize you could've made a better choice in dampers.

HSD is fantastic and they put a lot of thought into their setups. They aren't like Megan / BC Racing / K Sport etc who just slap random valving and spring rates onto cars.

I know for a fact a TON of work has gone into the 86 version of their HR coil-overs and that people will be very happy.

Word is, 2 versions available... BRZ and GT86. hush hush now
