Short answer, yes. We're not going to wait on Bilstein any longer for that project. However, when Bilstein does finally start making things again....someday...we would be able to put together custom coilover sets for individual users (at an increased cost).

Just a short update on these, we made one last little tweak to our BRZ valving. First sets should be here in 3 weeks. I insisted on a slight change in compression damping. I'm VERY excited.

We'll have pictures + video + a longer write up then. I will also be running these on my car if anyone wants a ride in the MD area.

The WRX/STI sets are finalized and we'll be posting pics + video of those soon. Sorry to make you guys wait a little longer for our BRZ application, but it's going to be worth it!

Well I'm split between these and lowering 1-1.2" or waiting for the RCE raising springs and getting a set of B8's and a lift kit.

I think most people should be getting them over the next few days.

My set is a few days behind everyone else, but I will hopefully have them on my car next week. I'd be happy to give ride-alongs to anyone in the area.

Check out my unboxing video for a more detailed look into these coils. Definitely impressed with the quality and cannot wait to install them.

They come with front camber plates. You reuse OEM stock rears or we can send you a new set of rears for cheap.
