they are also shipping out the other test set to GA16Lucino tomorrow. Finally got things rolling.
Fantastic! I'll be keeping my eye out for them. I have a set of AGX's in transit as well.
Last weekend's autox on the stock suspension was taped for the 'before' perpsective.
May 12 is the next one. In the meantime i'm going to do a nice drive through the blue ridge mountains and see how she handles the twistys... and post up a review.
Thanks for getting this done Rob! Its going to be nice to have another solid option for the b14.
alright, here is the moment you have been waiting for, Pics of the car.
I was told that they tweaked the design after they took the pics and made it a .25" higher IIRC.
The springs are also on their way to you, Lucino.
Keep an eye out. Hopefully you will have them by Sat. or Monday.
I have already collected a couple payments, but I will officially begin collecting them now for whomever wants to. Ordering information can be found on the first page of this thread.
Thanks all.

I concur. You B13 guys are graced with more rear-travel than us B14 guys. I was almost going to ask if we could raise the back a tad, but happily, it looks like they beat me to it.
The 200 looks sweet... except for those foggy headlights... Rob, I got a pair of not-so-foggy B14 headlights with a pair of SilverStars in the closet, next to where the corners USED to be... PM Me if you want them too :-D
PayPal coming to you shortly for the springs, as soon as I find the number you quoted me. Damn tax return's been burning a hole in my pocket.
** note to self... follow up with dude about where my AGX's are at
I think that is what they went with. I will find out the final drop height from them today. Also keep in mind that they need our oks before they go ahead and make the springs, so if we do need to make a slight change to the drop height, it would be very easy to do so and would not take much work at all on their part.
I was told today that the pictures were taken when they were messing around with different spring rates and drop heights. That picture is a 1.25 inch drop on both the front and back.
What they ended up with as a final design is 1.25" fr and 1" back. So the back is higher then what the picture shows.
The spring rates will be 325 fr 290 Rr.
Lucino should hopefully have those springs by monday and report back to us on what he thinks about them soon, and I am getting my car saturday and I will most definately post up an initial impression too and also some vids if I can get some of the car. That might be a little hard for me though because the car is untagged and I will have to tow it to a big parking lot if I want to get vids.
I just need 6 more paid for the B14 and I will be ready with the order as soon as we are done testing.

So when do you think us B13 guys will be getting these springs? Three weeks to a month?
The reason I'm asking is because my alignment is way off do to me trying to make it better. However I ended up making it far worse, and I know I'll have to have another alignment when I get the springs on the car. So I'm just wondering if I should wait to do the alignment untill I get the springs.
a month to 2 months. hopefully closer to a month though. Last time it took a month and a half IIRC. How new are your tires?
They are Falken Ziex's on 14" rims.
My tires were new about three months ago but I drive hard on them. I go to Firebird Raceway often to run the quarter mile. So they are about half way worn already! I'm going to see how much that laser thing costs at Sears today and if it's cheap I'm going to try to do my own alignment again.
rob , you may wanna update the opening thread post to let b14 guys know they can start paying up for their springs.
