tein, will require a lot of ongoing maintenance. they will require regular rebuilds. they are not designed for the street.

I have not heard of any HSD's needing a rebuild.

save up get HSD's

the end

Have a chat to Joe 'BALISTC', and get a hold of some of the guys that he has supplied to, at least that way you can have a chat with people that have experienced them, and ask questions.

I am so happy with my new HSD's for the Foz that I want to hug Joe...in an non-homo way of course

They are a quality product at a very reasonable price, save you money and buy some HSD coilovers would be my suggestion.

PM sent

I am honouring the $1499 price for all PWRX'ers for as long as possible, they'll be going up slightly soon.

That being said, if you want to spend less, I know of a set of HKS coilovers which will be for sale soon for under $1k.. but be prepared to rattle your teeth out, and you'll have to change the rear strut tops to suit GC8 as they're for GD.

bump.

If I can't find a set of decent 2nd hand ones within a few weeks, I will go for a brand new set of HSD ones.
