I reccomend them. And ive seen them on vw forums, 350z forums and people reccomend them as well. I wanted pbm's but im on a budget and car is only a daily not a drift car. But id say get the high spring rate. I think i got the lower one and its slightly bouncy. But still nice!

From everythingive researched they i guess are re branded bc's. I wish i got the "drift spring rate" but over all i like them alot. Ive owned expensive and bags and all that jazz and i was nervous at first for these. But they are nice.

the 1uz motor is actually very light and weighs similar if not a little less than the 2jz-ge cause the GE has a cast iron bottom end (seriously heavy and indestructible) and the 1uz is a mostly aluminum bottom end (with sleeved cylinder walls).
those mk4 supra coils though are probably designed for a mk4 turbo, which comes with a 2jzgte with turbo's and everything that the GE does not have, and actually would weigh about 150lbs more than a 1uz when all is said and done, so unless you strap a couple of turbo's to that v8 you are actually lighter on those coils than the sc3's (unless its gte swapped).
For the 4.7L 2uz, toyota went back to a cast iron bottom end for long term reliability, and man those things are seriously heavy, which is why they are usually in the truck/suv lineup.

I'm also considering increasing the spring rate to get rid of that last bit of body roll.
There is a great thread here about re-valving them and I think I'm going to try it.

btw, running that low, be careful on angled driveway entrances. I got high centered twice and without an lsd had to physically get out and push the car back off the hump. Needless to say, I got them properly adjusted after that, no more running that low for me. Much more track oriented mindset now.
