I think Eibach were the only ones that quoted him a reasonable price for a retelativly small production run. If I remember correctly, we would still end up paying $400ish for a set, even more with other manufacturers.

We've been working with Eibach for a long time with springs.

The only other springs the fit the bill are the Chuhatsu Plus Multiroad Lift Springs, but they are not as stiff as what is desired for this project.

And the TRD Rally springs. RCE will be worth the wait tho.

I have the trd setup from what I can tell they are just kyb dampers(idk about valving, but it has you reuse oem bumpstops) with very stiff springs to achieve the lift. first rallyx in april, but so far they are really great bombing around town. I for sure would wait for rce stuff, it will most likely be cheaper than importing and nice to know replacement dampers can be had easily. The tiffany blue/teal color looks cool on trd stuff though, lol.

Very interested in these. I have a K24 swapped BRZ that I daily drive like a maniac - I feel on some of these roads out here in TX having a small lift would actually be a good thing - not to mention I'd be able to hit all the local rally cross events without worrying too much about bottoming out.
