Interesting.... the camber plates are different than mine. Maybe just a new design, but the plate looks a little thinner, maybe not... hard to tell, but the recess is something new. The DC5R plates don't have that.

I'll vouch for Marcus too... I've bought some stuff from him. He's one of the best places I've dealt with.

honestly, i trust Ed (truehonda) and Jeff (Streetlevelperformance) very much, and would buy from them any time. But the deal Marcus (heeltoeauto) gave me was too good to pass on. I paid $1175 for those. And in all seriousness, i don't know how much better the group buy is gonna be. Don't get me wrong, I don't wanna start a price war but being the stingy little bastard that I am, i go around and ask all sorts of vendors for prices, and so far, Marcus gave me the best deal. He's located in So Cal so i was able to pick up right away.

U guys say this is all hardcore ;-P , but its alot cheaper than many of the other suspension systems out there, APEX, JIC MAGIC, KW's, and barely a little more than brands like OMNI and D2 ^_^ so if you think about it, its not that bad of a deal...i've been saving a LOOOOOOONG time for this, and i feel satisfied in the end, as if i've achieved something...lol...that's a corny way of putting it, but o well.

I installed my Tein SS yesterday, and I can't get enough of driving my car. I love it. It takes time to adjust your ride height perfectly, I still have to drop the front a little, but what an amazing setup.

I havent seen how low they go, nor do I intend to. By the look of it, they don't drop down to anything lower than a "sport" drop. I don't like slammed cars, I just wanted to improve my suspension without sacrificing drivability. I had neuspeed sport springs and koni yellows before, but the Tein SS blows my old suspension setup away.
