Oh nice, perfect set up! I only asked because his build thread in the coupe media section said otherwise. Guess he decided to take them off.

Borrowing ideas is one thing, but this is sad (reminds me of the guy that emulated Edafe's Z). These wheels don't even come in white so he went out of his way to try and look like Shavi.

His own words: "its cool to copy" and for the wheels he said "its the only ones i can afford" for the color he said "it was suppose to be teal but they messed up"...weak.

^I bet you wouldn't say that if a BS Coupe with a sticker bombed Nismo front and all black grill got a set of DPE SP-SC10s and painted his faces the same color as yours.

I'd burn that BS Coupe with a sticker bombe Nismo front and all black grill with a matching set of DPEs to the ground...

and then figure out how I could capitalize on the insurance claim as my own

JBF, what are your spring rates now and how does it ride? Full stiff?

Spring rates are 14k front and 7k rear (which is equivalent to 13k on an OEM style spring). They are also linear rate springs as well...meaning no bounce whatsoever. AANNNDDD. My rear springs are an inch shorter than what you normally get from stance. But I included some helper springs so the damper stays right in the center of its stroke at ride height.

bottom line...


They're firm as fawk but smooth as butter

And yea they're set to full stiff too

I've got the same spring rate in mine with Swift springs, they are smooth as butter. Swift Springs FTW
