Hit up Grant(yokotas13), via pm, and I'm sure he'll give you some feedback. IIRC he ran their coilovers on his s13 @ 1 time.

i had em. loved em for hte money
they arent high end by any means, but they performend better than ksport, and as well as the HKS and Cusco i have had
they look exactly like ksports but just light blue.

and?
you cant see what matters, the inside
valving of the dampers is important. while these arent spot on, they are on the better part of the selection ive used on the track
im just saying, i mean im not bashing them but they are of relative price to ksports meaning that they possibly get there valving from the same place. Although not the best they are probably suitable for most people who track there car every once in a while.
