Garm can get them stock or with custom spring rates:

yarr_is · 01-14-2010, 02:49 PM

Hmm... custom spring rates. I dont even know how the stock spring rate comes with it feels like... I wish someone has these so i can hitch a ride lol

cali yaris · 01-14-2010, 03:41 PM

thanks supmet. I have one set in stock at 4k/3k, the first in the USA! -- and can order (coming from Japan) any spring rate you want.

yarr_is · 01-14-2010, 05:01 PM

What kind of spring rate are there?

cali yaris · 01-14-2010, 05:02 PM

They are stocking 4k/3k. You can order any spring rate you want.

DerFlosser · 01-14-2010, 05:04 PM

I am interested in these but concerned about the front max drop being 1&3/4" only. I am not sure what I have now with DF210's but I certainly want to go about an inch lower.

yarr_is · 01-14-2010, 07:05 PM

i think they are height adjustable... correct me if I am wrong

Yeah...they are but only to a max of 1&3/4"

toad · 01-14-2010, 08:34 PM

yeah, i was kind of bummed when i saw the front measurements too. i got df's also and i do wish the front was a little lower. i know not everybody buys coilovers for looks, but if i'm going to spend that kind of cash i want to be able to dump it occasionally!

why? · 01-14-2010, 08:34 PM

Are they adjustable for rebound & damper? The page didn't say so. Custom spring rates sound silly if you cant make the shock harder or softer. Or maybe they'll dpo the shocks custom as well?

yarr_is · 01-14-2010, 09:12 PM

They do not have dampening adjust... it's preload. Also it's pretty bad dumping the car with coilovers. Less rebound and stuff... it's like having springs and killing your struts

DerFlosser · 01-14-2010, 09:23 PM

I don't want to "DUMP" my car per se. It's a daily driver. I just want to go about .5-1" lower. I have always had coilovers on my cars and prefer them to strut/spring combo's.

cali yaris · 01-14-2010, 10:04 PM

Installing coilovers without the height spacers (usually two locking rings) will get you the extra 1". Saggio, 03Z33 and others did that to lower the car as much as possible.

yarr_is · 01-15-2010, 02:24 PM

Hmmm... interesting.

jaytown · 01-15-2010, 05:58 PM

Any product pics?
