I did not edit any of my post, please specify where I asked a question or even claimed anything?

I already said sorry, I even said "IMO" on my first post.

at one point I was considering just getting Koni/lowering spring and call it a day but none drops the front 1" and stock rear hieght like I wanted. This WAS close and now getting closer, but still not for me.

again, sorry for the inconvenience. Mods delete all my post here if you feel that it's needed.

Thanks and have a wonderful day!!

No problem. I didn't want to seem like a jerk, but I was just wondering why you were telling me you didn't want to buy them in the thread intended for people who wanted to buy them.

Can't do sooner then midmonth. This is a group buy. I am taking payment right now, but placing the order for B14 springs hopefully early next week and then it will take 1-2 months till we see a final product. I can assure you though that it is well woth the wait for the quality of this product.


For you B14 people, I am still waiting on the word from RM regarding price.

For you B13 people, I need 9 more till I can place an order.

I want some of these esp. Now that the front isn't as low...this is just the height drop I'd wanted. As soon as I know I'll have the cash Rob, I'll p.m. Ya and send a m.o.

So the drop of a b-14 is 1.25" front and 1" rear?? I am wondering if you can you make the b-14 same as the hyperco's springs...I think they were
1" front and 1" rear drop.

I had a set of hyperco's but I had to sell it because I no longer have a b-13 and I love the ride and drop on it. So if RM can make the b-14, same drop as the hyperco's then it will be better, imo....But I am still in either way, but again, it all depends on price and shipping to me.

The drop hasn't been set yet. 1" and 1" seems to be pretty popular so I think that is what we are going to make it.

could you put me on the list for a b13. if you could let me know the cost shipped to 55304 that would be great and the types of payment you accept.

i saw the reviews and ride heights for these and they sound amazing so i am excited to get some more b13 guys in on this so i can get some new springs :biggthump

I'm not picky about the drop on the B14's. Whatever you guys decide is OK so long as it doesn't exceed 1.5" Which is extreme. All I ask is the spring rates don't deviate too far from the current or Hyperco specs.

I just fit them on my car ! Thanks for the fast and serious shipping !

First : the upper bolt of the front suspension, the strut turns when you unscrew it ! really a shit to remove ! I combined a 8 and 17 wrench to unscrew it...
They do not require a spring compressor to install them on stock B13 KYB.

On the road:
It really change the car, especially when you used to ride with stock ones.
The car turns better, certainly because the drop increase the camber and of course less rolling due to higher spring rate.
I try them on a really bumpy road, don't know if I hit the bumstops...
Except the fact that in some bump the car rebounds due to my old stock struts, I've not noticed weird movements.

The only really strange thing is when they are installed on the car,all the upper coils are in contact (the coils that are closer between them) , this means the only damping area is the lower area of the coil spring (where the coils are more spaced)...So why ? This deserve an explaination !


Then to finish, I've a strange noise on the back, it seems like a bolt is not correctly tightened, but i have verified 2 times all the tightening torques... strange !
Maybe it comes from another thing ! I will do my investigation on it !

thanks
