I'm rocking them in the trunk of my car. I'm looking for rear upper balljoints before install. Maxrev did a review on maxrev.net, it's a good read.

There's already a thread on this: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/862...-multi-pro-r2/

Evasive posted a very strange looking dyno plot, then declined to explain why they chose that valving, so I'm skeptical.

Shock bodys are also to long in the rear to drop the car the way us STR guys like.

They don't, but they shouldn't. I have offset upper joints to gain more camber on my stock ride height. With the coils I would have too much neg camber so I need to go back to the stock joints. Problem is they don't sell them (that I know of) without the whole arm.

The above link has a full discussion about these coils but no one has posted a review as of yet.

Good luck

I can only chime in to say they are rebuild able feature good springs and have endless spring options for little extra cost. Also high quality build materials.

Bad thing is they are the same length as stock which the other poster mentioned and short of finding for additional cost extended top hats all you can do is to tear them apart send the pistons to a place for shortening likely to be at least another 200 dollars. That's if you want to actually lower the car.

Also the Evasive versions are ridiculously over sprung for anything that would driven on the street. If that's how they are designed I would pass. Even for a race car with weight removed it's too stiff.

There is a non external reservoir version they promoed for 1500.00 But after talking with Jackson over there they arent releasing them anytime soon.

i just picked up a set.. so far one ride to work and back was a lot more comfortable than my SRCs were.. but those I had set on 3/5 and these are 3 from the softest setting all around.. which i think would be 7??? I havent aligned the car or messed with the settings.. waiting for streets of willow on the 6th..

out of the box.. I was told that they were pre height adjusted.. dont know if i got right info.. my brother picked them up from me and I have no idea who he talked to.. I put them on the car as is and had to raise them almost an inch and a half at all corners.. the car is a little lopsided right now. im going to want a full inch space between the top of the tire and fender and I would like to run a little softer settings then i did on the teins..

Ill let you know. the srcs were awesome. cant go wrong. the eibachs are definetly nice. the build quality is top notch just like the src's were. i really like the external resevoirs.. just really wish the rears had it as well. my rear driver side is a pain in the ass to get to.
