Tanabe Sustec Pro S-OC

also comes with camber kit for the front (adj balljoints) and rear camber kit
and a front and rear strut bar.

all for $750

now my main concern is are these any good? i have tokico blues with eibach sportlines. im in no need for this, but if its a good deal ill pass on the Jmfab manifold and get them.
 
The Tanabe Sustec OC is a low-pressure, twin-tube damper with 335# fronts and 224# rears. In other words, they are quite soft and designed to be gentle. They will not help your handling all that much, but will almost definitely ride better than Sportlines and Blues, since almost anything rides better than Sportline and Blue. If you are tired of the bumping and banging you are currently faced with, you might as well get these. If you are looking to upgrade the handling, then keep looking.
 
the blues with sportlines don't ride bad at all in my opinion. no bouncing or bottoming out, but thats just me. yes, the tanabe's are used. if they are a soft spring set up I will pass. I wouldn't want to drag the rear dramatically on a launch. I'm not looking for a new set up, but I didn't want to pass on a good deal. thanks for the reply, I'll spend my money on some diff parts.
