None but I almost bought a set of PCV's but decided against it because how good is a fucking damper that only allows height adjustment through spring preload? I don't need to buy those to know that might not be the damper for me.

You really expect the price to drop once more companies develop suspension for it? Even if it does, it wont be much. I'd rather stick with the stock Bilstein then downgrade to a Japanese coilover. Does ANYONE find it odd that most coilovers for the 240 is 8-6 spring rates? Why is it so uniform? Sure some custom spring rates can be ordered, but valving is not changed. I'm not saying ALL Japanese coilovers are like this, but MOST.

No I don't because it's an $80k car.. You can't compare aftermarket parts for a brand new car with an MSRP of $80k with an S chassis car. Once again your posts are filled with biased hatred. Have you ever called any of these shitty Japanese companies and asked to build you a custom version of one of their dampers? I bet you haven't.

Most coilovers for S chasis cars are generic due to marketing and capitalism. Take an economics class.

Any big name Japanese company will provide custom spring rates, valving and sometimes external oil resevoirs for an added cost.

I'm sorry, but i think it's actually you filled with misinformation. If i sounded like i was filled with hatred i apologize, i dont mean to come off as an ass.

Nope, still you pal.

Did you read the article i posted? If you can prove a guy wrong that has years of shock building behind him, his own personal shock dyno, and race team experience then please do so. If I'm wrong i will gladly admit it. I'm always happy to learn something new.

I skimmed the article. Personally I think it's full of ignorance. I don't give a fuck what his crediantials are.

Buying Shocks

Remember this list:

• Bilstein
• Penske
• Koni
• Ohlins
• Sachs
• Dynamic Suspension

Not on this list? Almost certainly crap.

I don't need to have race team experiance and my own shock dyno to know he's full of shit.
