NEX Coilovers Version 2.0 Major Good News!!!!

Ok, so most of you know that i have the NEX coilovers. Most of everyone on this site thinks that the NEX setup is crap...well i love mine. Never the less, when finding out that NEX was putting out a Version 2.0, and that anyone with the version 1.0 could trade in for free, i thought why not, get a free set of new coilovers. The waiting was announced to me as about 6 weeks. That was about 5 weeks ago, so i go into my auto store and ask how NEX is commin with the new version 2.0. I do this only to find out that it wont be out till about September, October time. I was like "SH*T!!", then the guy said but there is good news. NEX is designing a whole new setup. Upgrading the springs, and shocks, and ADDING adjustable valves!! For those who dont know, adjustable valves allow you to adjust the pressure of the shock, or so im told. So they are now height adjustable, pressure adjustable, and tension adjustable. The guy at NEX said to be patient, it will be WELL worth the wait.
Just letting you know
Peace~

DO NOT BUY NEX COILOVERS!!!!!!!! They are cr@p. The guy that designs them does not understand the suspension on the 7th gen civic so he can't design them right. The original ones had a straight control arm which caused a major oversteer problem, along with a few other problems. In all honesty having all those things adjustable is asking for trouble unless you have a very good understanding of the setup. Too much room for error. Either way just my 2 cents. You are better off buying the B&G setup for like $1,000.

Decamo has a little shameless behaviour in the past
What about DTM coilovers? Anyone have those, and who manufactures these. I couldn't find a site for them.

Any full coilover should be better than buying coilovers and konis.
