Message Given the fact that the total range of motion appears to be cut by almost half, I don't see how it could be possible.

I have the SPL's and on their softest settings the ride wasnt bad at all on decently paved roads, i thought it dampened the freeway seams and bumps very well, but those were relatively new and well paved interstates in OK and TX.

I still like them, but people need to forget about getting the type of ride quality they are used to with kyb/tokicos paired up with stock sized springs IMO. Not saying one is better than the other, just saying it is apples and oranges.

Coilovers are not what you want if the car is primarily driven on crappy public roads IMO. If that was what I was doing in my Z, after experiencing 3 different suspension setups over extended mileage, I would not choose these coilovers.

But, under the name of "liberalism", they will adopt every principle of our socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without ever knowing how it happened.... I no longer need to run on the Socialist Party ticket because the Democrat Party has now adopted our platform."
