What do to you mean?
The competitions don't have caster adjustment, the only difference of the pros.
Both have height adjustability and dampening.

"they do more than just" coilovers, is what I mean. They have other line of fabricated products that have been around for quite sometime for those who may not know their products.

I've sent them 2 emails about different products but never received a response. I guess they're busy. I'll be calling them sometime soon to order a ser of coilovers though.

I was hoping I could get them to test fit one of the adjustable height knobs on their FR-S before I buy one, because I'm not sure of how it will fit with the reverse lockout. I'd like to have one to match my coilovers! lol

PSM makes great stuff. We've known Dan for some time now and their S-Chassis, Z-Chassis and RX7 products are some of the best in the business and are very popular in the drift scene.

Dan is good people. Shop just moved, so that address posted above is no good! They're in Escondido now, I believe.

I rode in his FR-S and was amazed at how nicely it handled the shitty road by the old shop. So many patches and cracks, but it felt nearly stock. I have kind of a bad back, so I'm sensitive to lots of jarring bumps. This was on the first set of production MAX PROs he got in.

The website doesn't show much for our cars yet, but he has lots of goodies on the shop car that will be making it to production at some point.

Oh, and yes they've been extremely busy lately! Especially with the move. They also had one guy leave (I almost took his spot) so there's just one guy in the office besides Dan helping with calls/emails and packing/shipping. Hopefully they can get some more help now that they have more space and can push more volume.

Have them on my ae86. Pbm stuff is super rugged. Maybe the shock inserts are china but everything else is all in house r&d and built to Pbm spec. I dare anyone of find something made this nice from somebody else, strength wise.

When I get an frs, I am driving straight from the dealer to put as set of these on.
