I called them 2 weeks ago and they said they would use my car to take the measurements for their sleave kit, called last week and they said maybe in a month from now I can come up and get a kit made.....I dont know what the hold up is they told me it would only take a couple hours to do I guess their just really busy....If enough people show intrest maybe they will call me sooner so we can all get a kit!!

Oh and they told me the kit would cost $399 for the S2000, If you want their full coilover kit with shocks they said they have already done a few s2k's....

I am DEFINITELY in if they are $399. I only want the coilover kit without the shocks. I dont know what to do because I want to purchase them already but the Comptech's are $695.

Maybe you could put fire up their ass to speed them up, LOL!

Well they have my number and they said they would call when they want me to come up.....I think people calling about them would put some fire under them
So give them a call and let them know you want the s2k kit, they need to hurry because im leaning toward just getting the kg/mm's...
but heres the website if anyone else is interested: http://www.ground-control.com/

Does anyone know how difficult it is to adjust the adjustable suspension? Does the wheel have to be taken off? And can it be restored to stock height? This is just in general, not only ground control. Thanks!!

RacingE S2000, how much are the kg/mm's? How is the quality?

Ace, you dont have to take the wheel off, but you do have to jack the car up. I'm sure it could be brought back to stock height.

I would wait for the Ground Controls if I were you. The Ground Controls give you a level of adjustability the puts them above the rest. Not only can you adjust the height but if you decide later on down the line that you want it a little stiffer you can call them up and get different rates springs sent to you. In my Prelude I started out with 450#/inch springs on front and rear and incrementally over time I have gone up to 650f/750r. My example is rather extream as my Prelude is a dedicated race car now but you probably get the idea.

You can do Ground Controls with one hand no lifting.
