The 8610's cost me $330 shipped where as the 8611's were around $650 IIRC. Also, Koni just recently revalved the 8610's to closer match the 8611 valving, that was the deciding factor for me to go this route.

As for the rear, I'm not sure if the off the shelf yellow is the best option. I mean it will work, don't get me wrong there. But I just wish there was something a little more comparable in price and quality to the 8611 for the rear. But Koni doesn't offer any twin tube, double adjustable shock that would work for the rear for approximately the same price. You could always use a strut insert in the back and it should work fine.

Agreed, but it's what I currently have laying around and will use it until I can afford another set of 8610's for the rear.

As for ground control, just look at what I posted before. If you guys are that into this and want to save some money, you can find sleeves, collars and hats other places and then get Hypercoils springs from a lot of places and it will probably come in a good bit less than ground control. I'm not saying buy the ebay crap, but there are a lot of good quality pieces out there that will work for this.

My GC kit, I've had since 2001... it was originally purchased for a B13 sentra I had, but never used. Used GC kits can be had for as little as $150 and springs $50 a set if you shop around. I have 8 sets of springs ranging from 300# springs to 550# springs to play with on my S13.
