i have off the shelf gc's and illumina's on my FC. im no suspension god but its a good setup.

i got the gc's on some blown stock shocks for $150, and it was horrible when i ran it for fun until the illuminas came in.

but once the illuminas went in, it was smooooth.

with camber plates itll go as low as any other coilover in the front, the back is still limited, but its possible to get shorter springs to fix that. ive had it low enough to rub 205/50/16's up front on the frame rail above the tire under normal braking and never bottomed out the shock.

it isnt as stiff as the namebrand one piece coilovers, but its still plenty stiff, and they still work great.
its night and day from stock and handles great when im not sliding, and when i am sliding. car is so much tighter with them, it feels like a whole new car.

yeah i went with it because i got a killer deal, but its still a good setup.
