The spring rates are confirmed yet, as we obviously still months away from a finalised product. They will have 32 levels of dampning adjustment the same as the rest of our range, that is adjusted by twisting a dial on the top of each coilover.

They colours are normally red or blue, our company makes ours in weekly batches as we are selling on average 12 sets a week at the moment. They paint the whole batch the same colour, it saves us and the customer money.

We were going to offer custom colours, but the end price was too expensive. Plus you can't really see them when they're fitted anyway.

Ok, cheers. So does that mean to adjust them, they need to be removed?

No. They are like any other coilover to adjust.

Nope, you just twist the dial on the top as shown in this picture of our coilovers for the Nissan S15:

So when you read about people going 500lbs front 450lbs rear, or 450 front 375 rear, or 400/300, how would you actually achieve those exact figures (if you wanted them)?

And how is ride height adjusted?

Height is adjusted on the threads on the shock. You need to jackthe car up and twist it do the desired height
