Anyone have Tanabe Sustec Pro-SEVEN Coilovers?

After driving myself insane trying to decide among HKS Hipermax RS, Tanabe Sustec Pro-Seven, and Zeal Function-Xs, I'm almost set on the Tanabe for my G35 Coupe.
Does anyone have the Tanabe Sustec Pro-SEVEN coilovers?
I'm wondering what I have to cut to have better access to rear adjustments. Tanabe says something about cutting required for the rears on the G35c.
If anyone has this set, or know about it, can you give me some pointers?
Also, how is it like on the street? Ride quality, any noise issues, ease of installation, ease of adjustment, etc.
If you have felt both HKS Hipermax RS/LS(+) and the Tanabe Pro-Seven, how you would rate the Tanabe as far as ride comfort goes? I wanted something a little stiffer than HKS RS and Zeal Function-Xs would be the perfect setup (although they cost about $1000 more), but nobody had any in stock, so I pretty much decided on the Tanabe, which I heard only good things about.
Although I think it might be just a little too stiff for daily street driving, maybe I can live with it. As a return, I'd have something more track oriented than the HKS RS when I want to go drifting.
Any feedbacks would be greatly appreciated.

Alex

I ordered the pro 7s week ago from speed force racing and I was told that they came in earlier today.. I'm just waiting to make an appointment for the install... They said the suspension looks great and I can't wait for the install so i can't feel the difference over the oem sport tuned setup... I'll let you know the difference after I take a drive....

Did you ever get the install? If so, can you post a review?

Mine are in orbit somewhere. LOL I'll definitely post up when I get 'em on. Gonna go get the wife a new car this weekend, so mine will finally get the garage time it needs to let others catch up the the 100k mile + club. I'll start a new thread and probably do another DIY for a full suspension install. (The more pics, the merrier!)
