did you read the suspension FAQ? the parts are in there. It is in my sig.
IF you want something comprable to the SS than the KW V2 or B&G.
Tein Flex or JICs are for racing.

I would wait for the Tokicos to come out. They are sooo much better in my opinion. They are just really flaky on a release date. Oh well.

If you plan on Autocrossing the KW V2, has a more preferable Spring rate, may not be as comfortable of a ride, but it will handle better.

KW V2 350 LBS/In Front and 500 LBS/In rear
SS 336 LBS/In Front and 448 LBS/In rear

Love the Tein SS. Handles awesome with other suspension upgrades ( i have no strut bars or anything....yet). Rides awesome, no bounce and yeah....handles great.

1500, u wish, u can't get that price unless u know someone that buys from JIC all the
time

jic sells their stuff at different price to different shop. my friend's work place uses only JIC's
for DSMs. so i got a real nice price for my set, no tax also
