oh ok that makes sense, but what goes into the "rebuildable" portion? do you have to cut things and do inserts? imo that's a pita and i'd rather have separate components if that's the case.

to me it's like having a pda and a phone as one... yeah it's cool, but if i want to upgrade i have to change the WHOLE thing when it's not relaly needed... my phone can always dial a number, that will never change (unless of course GSM dies out), but the pda could be updated regularly for more support..

i see this as the same concept.. but maybe i'm wrong?

i've been wanting to drop my 6th gen to for the longets, but lots other car problems keep using up my money instead! i was thinking of either TIEN or GROUNDCONTROL , because those seem to be popular from where i'm at .. and i heard just the TIEN springs alone, are just like stock ride, just way sexier haha

Tein S techs I've heard are like stock spring rates. I've heard the basic coilovers are pretty good. I can personally say that the SS kit kicks ***!!!!

Spaz: rebuildable dampers are in case you kill one. Not really an issue if you don't visit the track. Definately not a reason to prefer a pieced setup over a coilover.

Eibach's are very good springs, but I'd stay away from their shocks. Also, the Ground Control sleeves use Eibach springs ... FYI.

As long as the struts are made to fit the car the springs should too...
