Very cool stuff. But if it costs ¥91,800 that comes out to almost US$900. Is anyone else here going to spend more than the cost of a PS3 or PS4 in order to use this thing? I don't think so. Hopefully it is just the beginning though and someday would be much more accessible. Maybe in the not too distant future it would make use of tech that is readily available and on a device that a majority of the user base already has, i.e. a mobile phone/tablet.

Don't get me wrong, if it was available here and I had money to burn I would get it in an instant.

Looks like you just need more camber in the front. The rear's not bad and nothing you can do about it unless you wanna buy LCAs for adjustment.

Do you have camber bolts? Are you on stock suspension and are you hitting the strut?

Only suspension mod is RCE Yellows, but my wheels are 17x9 +45 with a 3mm spacer in front so +42. But if I try OEM camber bolts I'll just move the tire closer back too close to the strut perch.

Guess there's no real solution besides coilovers. Don't really want to run a bigger spacer in front because then I would need longer studs and there's already some poke with the 3mm spacer.

Only advice I can give u is take your sweet a** time searching for what u want.look at all your options and research the brand before making any investments believe me itll bite u in the a** later on if u just get any coilover just to lower and fix your alignment issues
