I wish I'd have known they made coilovers for S-chassis before I bought my Tanabe Sevens last year for the s13...

EDIT: BAM! You got rep
Lol, I have the same exact setup as you, only with a S14. Kinda regret going with the Tanabe 10k/8k rates. after a year or so of driving, it seems a bit too stiff at times for comfort, and when the roads are bumpy the car even hops. a bit scary. something like the 7k/5k ish offered by the V3 seems to be a more reasonable compromise.

anyhow, just like to add that lots of the evo guys are also really happy with the V3's coupled with the RobiSpec setups. it's very good for track and street. separate rebound and compression adjust-ability might also be a good idea for track guys. hopefully, there is also room for custom spring rates as well. most likely I will also get a set of the V3's for my evo next yr, when the funds become avail and after more seat time.
