autobahNESSA · 12-16-2005, 12:23 PM

Is their a date of when the first shipments will be in?

Edgar · 12-16-2005, 12:55 PM

The payment has to be made and the coilovers will be in the US in about a week or so and then we will be shipping them out to you guys. Process was delayed due to a holiday in Japan not too long ago. We do appologize but soon enough you will have your coilovers

SoSideways · 12-16-2005, 02:11 PM

I'm working to get some money together for round 2. Hopefully you guys will still have open spots by the time I get the money together.

Modern Speed Labs · 12-17-2005, 03:51 PM

No problem! We have several spots left for the Round2 guys so come on and jump on in

nsn240 · 12-19-2005, 05:21 PM

a question about the coilovers... maybe im wrong here, but arent arent the spring rates usually stiffer in the back, softer in the front?
Is there a benefit to that setup?

240 springs rates are almost always higher in the front. The car comes that way from the factory. And for the most part every aftermarket manufacturer makes them this way too. I can't see any reason why someone would want softer rates in the front. IIRC most front wheel drive cars have higher rates in the front as well.

with softer rates in the front stiffer in the back the front end would take a nose dive when braking hard, it would probably induce understeer as well as some other things.

Somebody correct me if i'm wrong here...

thanks, thats what i was thinking too... i guess i have just been reading thigns wrong, Not sure ... ive been looking at numbers like R/F instead of F/R.

Modern Speed Labs · 12-21-2005, 11:35 AM

UPDATE

The first order has been placed and is on the way and we even have some of the sets of the guys that ordered in Round 2. Right now we are gathering atleast 10 more so that we can get those here. So everyone please be patient while the coilovers arrive. When they arrive here in Indianapolis we will be giving all the customers a call and letting them know they are on the way.

Thank You

I can look into that directly with KTS.
When you do custom you have to order 30 sets at the same spring rate. That might be something that we do in the future if we get enough interest on one specific spring rate.

gearhead290 · 12-22-2005, 12:45 PM

is there going to be a round 3 for the gb? I'm penny pinching to get in on this since I"m a poor ass college student, probably just gonna ignore tuition for next semester lol

Modern Speed Labs · 12-22-2005, 02:30 PM

Dont do that
As of right now I think you will be able to make it in the Round 2 which we are expecting to end by the second week of January or so since everyone is waiting on Xmas money and all that stuff. Just let us know when you are ready.

Thank You
Edgar

Xmas money lmao OMG I wish, the only things I get at christmas are the end of the month bills. If I wasnt getting my car painted with some useless spoilers Krazy glued on it I would love to make the 2nd round of this GB. Maybe if there is a round 3 I will get in on it with slightly higher spring rates.

Please keep us posted.

Modern Speed Labs · 12-22-2005, 03:48 PM

I will keep you posted, but remember that on the higher spring rates we can do but we will have to get 30 people to get them as well in order to get them only way that KTS will alot us to do that.

weei2 · 12-24-2005, 12:00 AM

ok...i guess i will just wait now till some people are interested in buying 10/8 spring rate.

will it be at the same price?

turtl631 · 12-24-2005, 01:17 AM

Would sets with different spring rates be valved for those rates or would they just be the same valving with different rates?

Edgar · 12-24-2005, 08:54 AM

Guys as of right now diffrent rates are something we are just not doing, like ive said in the posts above we will need to place of 30 or more for that. Maybe in the near future Modern Speed Labs will place a order if we see enough interest. Thank You very much for your guys interest and please let us know if you have any questions whats so ever.

Happy Holidays
