I'm in...just got koni's and eibach pro kit spring installed. It's been great on the roads around Baltimore, so I'd be interested in how a "street" oriented set of coil overs would compare. Thanks!

I'm in! This would be amazing as I don't see myself having spare cash for upgrades anytime soon.

I'm floored at the push back being encountered.

I'm offering you a $1200 product for 30 minutes worth of your time writing a review.

Guys, it's that black and white.

Don't over complicate this.
I had a question regarding this; I apologize if it has already been brought up in the thread, I did a brief search but didn't see it mentioned.

Ostensibly we simply write our review, and we won't have to worry about the money being withheld from us, etc., but not all of us are great writers, delve into great detail when we write, etc.

You mention taking 30 minutes worth of our time to write a review, so it seems that you do have some idea in mind about the kind of effort, detail, and amount of writing that it is expected to put into this review.

That being said - if the individual who wins the product, and therefor writes the review - doesn't fulfill the expectations, length, or criteria you might have in mind when they submit it - then should we expect to not get refunded until a satisfactory review has been written?

I hope that came off as neutral as I intended it to be - I would just like to be clear on this since we all have a subjective view of what might be expected when writing, or receiving a review, and it is a lot of money to be putting up as collateral without that being made clear.

Again - thanks for this opportunity, and I look forward to the review from whomever will be writing it.

I'm IN and just in time...

User Name: Captain Insano

BRZ is a daily driven car in all seasons - with lots of spirited road usage. :-) I would LOVE to get my hands on these and give a detailed review compared to OEM suspension and OEM suspension + Eibach Pro-Kit springs (currently on the car). I also currently have on the car for suspension front camber bolts and rear lower control arms to dial in camber.

I know just the roads to test them on too

US 101:
https://www.google.com/maps/preview/...uTIqy4k-DA!2e0
(Lovely view, bumpy ride)

CA 150:
https://www.google.com/maps/preview/...bxhI3fOKow!2e0
(Another scenic route, but the best time to drive is around 3:30am when you have the whole road to yourself)

Just another mountain pass:
https://www.google.com/maps/preview/...CwSiIBspMQ!2e0
(The Japanese word touge comes to mind)

CA 33:
https://www.google.com/maps/preview/...fWN-keV9nw!2e0
And
https://www.google.com/maps/preview/...8r8a4topUw!2e0
(No joke, I've called in sick to work before just to drive it multiple times in one day)

I'll be sure to take plenty of pics and I'll use my GoPro to record some video of the ride quality both inside and out. We've also got track events coming up at both Big Willow and Buttonwillow.

I'm curious to see how well the car would feel approaching turn 9 at Big Willow. That's a pretty fast section and the ride can get a bit bumpy. Then there's Buttonwillow, which can often times feel like you're participating in the Baja 500. Definitely a fun track despite the rough stuff (or should I say it's fun because of it?)
