woohooo well we have a set of Mp5 springs comming out in mid June which is a 2-2&1/2 in drop and i got the low down on the guy to call .. he is ben and located in CA... he is at Sp Engineering and i am told from Tanabe that the retail price is about $330.00. so I will be calling ben in a little bit .. I figured I would tell you all about it ..and here is a link to read up on the springs they make and stuff like that (also this web site is currently being removed and there is a much better one being created .. the spring is called the Tanabe DF210 there is a picture of the springs in the current issue of sport and compact car on page 229 (its the issue with the Fast and the flamerous cars on it

$330 is kinda high for just springs, no?

 

[MP5Raycer]

well yes it is and he said a group buy is deffinatly availible but these are kinda like DG .. higher priced due to quality i guess

No offense but, we need another set of springs for this car about as much as it needs to lose some whp. So far that I know of we have Spool, Eibach, Sprint, Tein and Goldline. Get someone to make some aftermarket struts, then all will be good.

Are the sprint springs anygood?

 

[APEXistud]

Usually Tanabe makes excellent stuff. I don't see why their spring would be any different. One thing though, that price is very high for a set of springs. In all honesty, you could get a set of Ground Control or Skunk2 coilovers for an additional $30-$45 bucks. If their price is more around $230, then they will have some interested buyer, but they aren't going to get anyone jumping for them at their retail price.
