Re: It may happen this year

I'm ordering some of the TSP's from SVXNation as my stock struts are blown and Koni inserts cost more or less the same while not including height adjustment and requiring me to cut up my stock struts.

I'm specifying a 5kg/mm front and 3.75kg/mm rear spring rate for a firm yet forgiving ride (~1.25x stock rates from what I understand).

The TSP's and Gecko's seem to be the same coilover but I cannot stand the color scheme of the Gecko's. According to SVX Nation, the TSP's can be raised up to 0.5" above factory height. While they are not designed for this, I'm going to look into how this will affect parameters such as droop travel (i.e. is the spring adjusted or are they BC-style) but I'm interested in being able to lift it slightly for snow and oversized tires.

I'll be installing them on the car at the beginning of June. I'll let you know what I think of them at those rates if you haven't done it by then.
