Darn. I'm starting to look into other coilovers so i can have a back up plan prepared if the Super Drift's don't get here till may. I'm looking at GR-6, RM/A8's, Buddy Club Racing Specs, and also KTS.

The Tanabe DD are on back ordr for 2-3 months so that would put them in the may too. Projectnissan.com, phase2motortrend.com and optionimports.com all say DD's are not coming bck in stock till May. But no one can confirm the information about the TEIN's being delayed intill may either.

Try to pick a company that has a US based distribution warehouse. To make any issues go smoothly.

If for some reason the teins arnt out till may the tanabes are my second choice, third is silk roads, but the tanabes are damn beefy! Its all speculation know but I will call up my guys and see if they heard anything about another tein delay.

BTW Landho, tanabes has new coil-overs coming out but they are mnet to compete with the entry level drift coil-overs. They also have there version of the edfc which might be comp with the DD.

What is the best price you have found for the Tanaba DD's? Mine is $1679 hopupracing.com or $1683projectnissan.com

Yeah, phreze keep us updated on the release of the Super Drifts. If i can't get tein's, i'll probably go Silk Road, then KTS.

So i got the okay to order them in a couple days though. However, i am a little skeptical. These are brand new coilovers hitting the market, do you think they will live up to their name? I'm thinking about order Silk Roads. The Silk Roads have been out a little longer and people have on their cars, they also enjoy them. If i got the new Super Drift's, I'd be one of the first people with them on their car, i don't want to regret buying them because i had to knowledge of the product. Any opinions?
