I haven't got the time to adjust them after they settled. I'm hoping to get to the auto hobby shop on base this weekend and I'll snap some more!

I have the GT Version and they are $1000 before shipping (spring rates are 8/6). The GT Pro Version is $1700 before shipping.

Just got my buddy club racing specs or I would be all over these. Those are awesome looking coils!

Nichiei Project is a drift team out of Japan. I was told I have the only set in the US for the FRS. I believe some guys with S14s have used their application as well. You have to look up Nichiei on Facebook...but it's all in Japanese. PM me for any help/details man! Always love to help out a fellow FRS dude.

How's the comfort level? are you feeling every bump in the road? Im a little interest in these, but so hard to decide when you can't find a lot of reviews on a brand. I wanna make sure they don't explode on me or something, how did you find out about them?

Not to threadjack, but I figured I'd share lol

I've actually looked at your build and the car already looks great!

Thanks! There's been quite a few changes to it recently too and will be getting the rest over the next week.


Where are the updated pics of this thing??

how they looked on my old car, still haven't put them on the fr-s yet since I plan on changing the color of the faces. I didn't think "blurple" on red would look good at all.

Well I haven't maxed them out but they are in my top 2 coilovers for sure. I can't complain about the ride. I'm in Fl right now so ALL the roads are shitty but it's STILL not that bad...and on the highway I'm happier than a pig in shit lol. Like my first post said, I have a friend in Japan that runs a Facebook page with his photography and coverage of events in Japan. Retired USN. Coolest dude ever.

Man I've been putting it off right now. Class is busy and the auto shop sucks ass. Tool are as old as this base. I really want to find some wheels and dial in the ride height...

I was gonna get them and keep them stock. I just like the 'less id more' idea for my cars. They're gonna be rad on the FRS. Should run some meaty ass tires!

Update: Looks like I figured out what I'm gonna do, and I know a lot of dudes are gonna bitch about it but hey...I'm fucking married and need to budget for holiday visits to my family out in CA.

Going 'cheap' on wheels without sacrificing quality...or so I think. Gonna get some 15" Diamond Pro Racing Steelies (maybe the aluminum verison, I just don't know what to call them). Getting some nice Toyo Proxes 4 in a 'meaty' application and pursuing that 'dorisha' look that I love so much. If an S15 can pull of 15" then a smaller vehicle like ours should look just fine.

Gonna get:
15x8+0
205/50/15 Toyo Proxes 4
TOM'S Tail Lights
Some for of Strut Tower Brace(s) to reduce the body 'flex'.


Not that it's going to stop my now...but any opinions?

-D.

Just bought my BBS Style 5's. 17x8+20 redrilled to 5x100...
