I'm considering selling a kidney for those Teins.

At 800ish lbs of spring rate up front, is it tolerable to drive on the street? I don't own a trailer nor do I have intentions of buying one in the near future. My cars far from a daily driver, however, I would like to be able to drive the car on the street without rupturing a disc.

I've heard their pretty 'comfortable' given the high spring rates and having driven a MS3 on cobblestone and potholed streets daily, I'm not exactly coming from Cadillac plushness.

Mine seems like a bit of a go kart at 400/350. It's great for marble smooth surfaces, but it's too stiff for daily driving, so 800 is way too much. Is that really what 14k springs are, 800lbs?

Keep in mind my DD is a bone stock Lancer, I love the suspension and won't ever be changing it, so I like a fairly comfy DD.

We have a set of these on a car that is driven around on the street with the 10kg springs and we just set the shocks on the softest setting. If 14kg is too much, then the 10Kg are included with it as well. It really isn't bad on something that isn't a daily.

Default kit

I still have no word from you on the shipping of the turbo kit i have already paid you for?It doesn`t seem to much to ask for an e-mail.
If you don`t respond soon i`ll be going to Paypal to ask for my money to be returned.Right now i`m out $1,700 and have no idea who you are ,where you are and no phone # to call you.
If you have changed your mind just return my $1,700.

The one that's already sold? Better look elsewhere.

Supramantrm, FWIW, Robert's an incredibly stand up guy, I've dealt with him numerous times. He's also busy and his life doesn't revolve around MT.net. Give him some time, more than 2 days. Don't fret, you will get a turbo kit or $1700 one way or another.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay in response. I was hospitalized with and inflamed appendix and got pneumonia while I was there for the last 8 days and had to call some people to get everything. I am sorry for the delay in response, I truly am. Everything went out last week and I will be sending the tracking numbers after I post this.
