due to the suspension geometry and the way the rear struts are designed on our cars, it'll be almost impossible for 3rd gen coilovers to be made, unless they're ridiculously expensive.

i.e. we'd need camber plates for the front and rear, and all-new struts on the rear.. none of this modifying an eclipse strut to work on the fronts like on the 4th gens.
oh well.

Ya'll got it wrong. The reason Bryan won't make coil overs for us is because there is no externally adjustable rear struts available. For the Koni's you have to take the whole thing off which is a *****. Other than that the rear wheels are very close to the struts and don't offer much space between the perch and the wheel.
