I don't think there's any difference in terms of suspension between the GS3/400.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys ??

i might have misinterpreted the first time..I think the GS300 applies to the 1st gen only

I'm crossing my fingers as well, but I think it may be for the 1GS only. I think tire manufacturers pay aftermarket companies a royalty if they agree not to develop and produce a camber kit for our cars.

Got a call from one of the guys at Tanabe today....
Indeed, the GS parts are for the 161 chassis.

They aren't cheap, but they're awesome!
I have photos... have tom make sure it's okay to post a link.

Regards,
Bob

They keep people from saving and investing their money intelligently.

(I suppose you could also use them to replace worn suspension bits on the older cars, too...)

Agreed. It's great to see these old platforms still have quite a bit of potential. I can just imagine what the aftermarket will be able to do with the newer platforms.
