FYI: H&R Cup Kit for $610 shipped on GBC (new product)

A thread was posted on the suspsension forum, but not alot of ppl responded. Wanted to inform ppl that this is one hell of a deal that ppl should think of instead of buying Konis and springs. This setup will give you a shocks and springs that are perfectly tuned for each other to provide a smooth and dropped ride. The drop is 2.0 front and 1.7 rear. I believe from hearing about how H&R springs sag, so expect atleast a 2 inch all around drop probably.

Lets just say Konis cost 550 and springs 150. The cup kit is still a better deal plus probably better ride too because from a guess, the cup kit has a shortened shock for more travel while the Konis do not. Plus your mixing two different companies when you buy Konis with some other brand of spring, while the cup kit has a shock that is tuned for their spring. I know some are just looking for like a 1 to 1.5 inch drop and this is probably not for them, but for those ppl who want completely no wheel gap, this is probably the best thing to get. Also if your probably tired of stiff coilovers and don't want to spend a grand for coilovers to just drop it around 2 inches anyway, go for the cup kit.

Just beware of the seller. He is new to GBC and has no feedback. But if this is legit, this will probably be the majority of how ppl will drop their cars. Someone has got to be the guinea pig and buy, but I hope it all goes well. Hope to hear some reviews about the product in a few weeks.

I called H&R, it is not out yet.
They will be, but only taking orders from distributors.

I bet who-ever trys to get that kit will wait like 2 months.
