i found a write up on them,sum guy put them on his SI,sed they are alternatives to the tein basics,only thing is they arnt adjustable [sm=smiley21.gif] but still..

We did notice the ride was stiffer, but the suspension over bumps was smooth but stiff (It is high performance suspension). We went to a road course with it and all we can say was WOW! Our Si handled like it was on rails! Eventhough the shock is not adjustable, but it was perfectly suited for the spring rate. The Si did not understeer as much either which was a bonus. We have had it on hour car for 14,000 KM and it still feels like when we first installed it. This is one high quality Coilover and will vouch for it 100%!

those spring rates seem awfully stiff for the front of the car

just based on that review, I don't know, I'd have to know who makes the shock, and see proof that it's better than Koni Sports [8D]

I have Koni Sports (yellows) and Ground Controls. And I keep recommending them...
