Anywhoooo...... Can XYZ do custom valving or spring rates for us upon request?

I'm not interested in the above, but it could fish out 1 or 2 more people....
I would be down for custom spring rates if they would be able to offer them to us. I wonder if they can do 7kgF and 5kgR

It wouldn't be offered as part of a group buy. According to the vendor, the reason is: it costs significantly more and will also add cost to the fulfillment process.

$150 additional for persons in Canada, Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Guam.

"That is the additional price to the price buyers in the lower 48 states will pay, assuming there is enough interest in the group buy. Keep in mind, of all the people that sign up, only a portion will probably end up participating in your group buy."

With the above said, we have to ensure that people on the list are without a doubt ready to buy should they offer us a group buy. I am sure about myself so far.

Another thing to consider on spring rates. Our FWD cars have understeer so to make an ideal handling car we would need to increase oversteer by having stiffer springs in the rear. I want to hear from this middle man before I commit on the timeframe should the deal be completed, shipping and most importantly pricing.

You'll hear from them like you have been so far, just as long as more interest is shown. We currently have 9 persons and from what I'm hearing, not all will be 100% to purchase. The more persons we get, the better everything will be in the end. The vendor wants to see more interest.^^

Would be great if we got #10, however there are times when not all persons on the list are really willing to purchase.....so if we get more than 10, then we should be in a better position overall.

Well if it makes anyone feel better I am definitely in need of re-doing my suspension. stock suspension is rather squishy at the moment and i need to replace my steering rack and a cv due to busted boots some time in the near future. So it would work out well for me to get this deal so I can do that all at once. Bustin my **** here trying to make the money

not entirely wrong... stiffer rear springs will offer less understeer but could produce more lift off oversteer (could be unexpected lol) but we have that axle beam in the back so i dunno how that affects making the rears stiffer.

there's also dampening to adjust to help with that and if we had adjustable differentials...

but do you really care how this car handles? i mean this platform ain't a handler, just saying.

Put me down. My car rides like a forklift at the moment with ksport lowering springs. I was going to buy ksport coils, but I'll give these a try.
