One guy Toxis...but we need to figure out his rear rates/lengths as he is too low at the highest setting.

The one and only. What are you wanting to know that the search function wouldn't find?

I have read that thread. So for some reason GC will not tell what the spring rates are for the coil overs? I know you can get whatever you want, I had yellows and GCs with 400 F 500 R on my 00 civic. I know that for the EJ8s you needed to tell GC if you were using yellows or another brand of shocks. So I am wondering if we get some GC's now for the FG2 with custom rates, will the be compatable with the Yellows when they do come out :)

And from what you said at the end of the other thread. Don't give up on GC's untill you pair them with some Yellows.

As of now we don't know if they will be the same. In theory they should, they will either do an insert for the front stock shock housing ie...they work. Or they will do a complete swap out and from what I understand they are trying to get the factory stampings for that, so either of those seneraios they work. Now if for some strange reason they decide to do some sort of custom housing with a bigger MM shock housing then no. SO yes yes and no. :)

Yeah thats what sucks. I want to get some GCs now so I will no longer be a monster truck. Yet, I doubt I am going to like the off the shelf spring rates they have out right now. (by the way, they never will say what the springs rates are as of now).

When I swapped and boosted my last civic, I went with my yellows and the 400 f and 500 r rates. It sat very well and I loved the way it responded on the track. The way the car set was very nice.


Yet GC said if I was using Yellows I needed to tell them at the time of purchase, so I wonder if it will be yes yes or no for the fg2 haha.
