True enough, I've learned a lot here.

You're correct on the Teins being a lot more expensive with the pillowball mounts on them, the true question is are the pillowball mounts gonna make those same noises that the pillowball mounts on the D2s and other coilovers are gonna make?

Because if that's the case, I wouldn't get Teins with pillowball mounts either.

Don't even worry about it. MDers must have their own crazy language or something

Yeah, I get the irony. Even more so, I'm a software consultant.

OP, sorry for the off-topic crap.

Since you seem to be working with someone 'in the know', can you get damping curves?
