warwickben is on a distinguished road
iam running re-speed street, front coil overs and rear coil over kit(its a adjustable spring perch in the rear no mods needed.
iam running 250 in the front and 125 in the rear i think.(i mite be off plus or minus 10)
this is on a 1980 sa rx7. i have kyb gr-2 struts and shocks. with the re-speed front sway bar.

i cant really tell you how great of a improvement it was. because my rear shocks where blown. i pressed them in by hand and they never sprung back out. my front struts where not that bad.but all 4 springs where sagging. pulse the fact that i had to replace every bushing.

but what i got now is a really great handling car. i dont hear a big bang every pot hole i hit ect. no body roll what so ever. my buddy shit a brick when i let him drive my car after i put it back on the road. he drove it from the cape to the mass nh line where i live before i did the install. only thing i dont like about my setup is that billy has not put or a rear sway bar yet. i want more re-speed blue in under my car. lol

sorry i dont mean to sound like a fan boy or some thing but billy is the best person i have ever dealt with when buying parts. heck he added ss break lines for my car to his web site after i cut the rubber ones by mistake.
