are rebound and compression separately adjustable, or is it a single point of adjustment for the damping? in the front anyways.

I must note that RedSSNA has a rear sway bar and front strut bar. I would highly suggest at least a rear sway bar to compliament any FWD car in the handling department before really pushing the car.

I'd also like to note, that the car handles better if the rear end is NOT slammed.....

Is stance almost done with theirs?

The car feels incredibly planted at high speeds around corners. I'm not even done with suspension/handling mods yet and I'll be upgrading tires too. Can't wait, awesome product so far. I'm sure the finished set will be even better!!!!
This was defiantly a fun ride I wont lie. The car felt solid as hell going around those corners. It has defiantly been a huge improvement from his original set up of drop springs and sway and strut bars.

Once Stance releases the final version these things should be kick ass no doubt. I wish I had a car to put them on.

ill be in iraq till june next year but i still might order these now...but heres my one and only draw back

my friend has the B&G coils on his balt and i dont like that bouncy feeling, i have tenzo r springs and my ride is tight with no bounce, do stance bounce or is that something all coils do?

These coilovers definitely aren't bouncy. I think we've just about got them right. They feel great for everyday driving and perform exeptionally when pushed hard. I don't have the final set yet either so I'm positive these will only get better. As Paul said these put my old suspension setup to shame.

If a car bounces, the shock/struts are either worn or not tuned properly for the setup you are running.

a lot of times you get bouncy effect when the shocks are not working properly and/or they are not set correctly with damping...also many companies put way too high of spring rates on the coilovers to compensate for a weak shock....that causes a very negative effect down the road when the shock internals cant handle the spring rates no longer.

Its hard to say...but both the Stance and the KW's are mostly the only sets that we sell and use our selves.

I am offering the KW V2's for a more than reasonable price to anyone waiting for the STANCE to be ready....

Just a quick review.

I was the passenger in RedSSNA's car yesterday. We were on the way home from SS/SCking's house. There was a fairly tight on ramp which kinda went upwards. On top of the tight turn, there was bumps and ripples which would send any car in to an instant spin. This had to be one of the worst on ramps I've ever seen. Well we went into the corner hard and the car took it like a champ. The car went perfectly around the corner despite the bumps and ripples. The suspension absorbed it all and kept the car perfectly in the right line. The car never felt it was gonna understeer or oversteer.

I must insist, this is from a passenger stand point. It was by far, one of the most solid cars I've felt around a corner aside from my buddies Stance coilover S13.
