Sounds cool!

I might be able to make it out on sunday, but I'm booked up today (the 17th). Anywho, I have heard good things about the Tanabes. I hear they are really excellent coilovers. I don't know a decent price on them however, but my Teins that I have, I paid $850 for! Not too shabby. And then another $70 at a local shop to install them. If you want more info about it, email me and I'll give you the contact into of where I got mine.

On that '01 Civic with the G/C sleeves, was it on stock struts, and how low was it dumped? All that I know is that I'm WAY happy I went the route I did by getting the Teins rather than coilover sleeves. Like last night I was driving up the 60 and 605, and they just glide over any roadway impurfections. I have it set on the stiffer side right now, so it bounces a little, but a few twist and clicks of the adjuster on the tops of the struts, and I can return it to an almost near stock ride feel. Try that with a set of sleeves around some Koni yellows.
