My brother has an NB with godspeeds, surprisingly good ride quality. (He didn't put them on, PO did)

Bor Chuan seems to have stepped up their game on damping and QC. I think the weak point is material quality and long term durability.

I'm not sure the standard b6/b8 are a very good match for the tarmac springs. They're too soft to deal with that high of a spring rate.

So with these coilovers you'd get a higher spring rate (400lb I think), dampers to go with them and ride height adjustment.

What kind of dampers WOULD you put with Tarmacs? B6s would be my first guess, but I'm no suspension expert.

Konis, maybe cusco touring a. I get the feeling RCE/GTworx has their own version of the bilstein planned for them but are possibly stuck waiting like with these coilovers.
