i don't know about the comptechs, but have you seen what the KG/mm spring designs are like? it's revolutionary. the design allows for lower stance without creating the ricey bouncing from their unique upper coil design.

The Kg/mm's are one of the best springs available especially for japanese cars like the S2000.. having said that the spring rates on the DR racing series are high which i wondered if it would be a bit bouncey for everyday driving, maximum lowering height is about 35mm.. Due to the fact that the spring rates are so high (F 8kg/mm R 9.5 kg/mm ), i wonder if that would create big stress on the stock shocks.? if that's the case, i might go for Zeal function B6 or Tein Rs..

if you're worried about the spring rate on DR Racing, why not go with DR21 Supersport?

email me, i'll get you a deal on the zeal or the KG/mm.
