Progress CS1 Coil-Overs
We finally got word that these are out and ordered seom from Progress.
Here is some details, I will post more information as I receive it.
http://www.robearracing.com/pd_progress_cs1.cfm
The original Take-Apart Coil-over System for Sport-Compact cars. This system has been refined over thousands of racing miles. Take PROGRESS technology to the track, and build a winner!
FEATURES:
Short Struts: 30mm shorter strut bodies for lower ride heights, improved ride quality and traction.
Polyurethane Components: polyurethane Short Stops allow additional wheel travel. New strut top bushings and spring isolators also included.
Take-Apart Design: Strut tops are threaded for easy revalving. Custom valving is simple to install for road racing and drag racing. "how-to" video available.
Big Bore Size: Large 35mm piston and twin-tube cellular gas construction for consistent damping.
Threaded Spring Perches: Ride Height adjustable 1" - 4". Detent locks collars in position every half turn. No lock ring necessary!
Complete Systems: Includes Race Springs, Struts and necessary hardware.

Adjustible shocks, or do you have to take them apart any time you want to change the valving?

Could you also ask if steering arm is lowered or relocated like Mugens to reduce bump steer? And spring rates? If they're not too stiff or too costly, I may buy a set & be a 7thgen guinnie pig.

Are those spring rates a good or bad thing.
I'm not familier with spring ratings.
as a daily driver application how would they fair.

Rep Power: 412 Tein SS is 336/448 and they fair pretty well on a DD. The progress have a big difference between the front and the rear which is great for racing but can lead to oversteer or snap oversteer. my coils are 450/506 and boilermaker's coils are 506/560 and they aren't comfy in the least, but they handle well. the 350F on the progress coils are probably good, but I am not sure how the 650 rear would feel. most of the bump is absorbed by the front more anyway. so until someone tries, then it is all theory now.

Rep Power: 359 Thanks for the information
Not sure how they would be on the concrete So. Cal freeways.
It might be good for the LX 's not equipt with a rear sway bar.
