as i had mentioned in the other thread, one of my front struts failed completely when it was 500mi new. the car was undriveable because of the failed strut so i had to take everything out and put something else in so that i can still use the car while i waited for the warranty replacement to come in. that was 3 months back, and the new replacement parts only arrived a few days ago

quality in what sense? build quality? it looked good to me, but i only had them on the car for a very short period of time. this coilover is new for the GS application, but they've had fitments for other models for some time now. if you search the SC and IS forums you'll find more discussions about STANCE over there because lots of them run STANCE coilovers. they are also big with supra, lancer EVO and wrx/STi owners as well so you could look there?

the only grievance i have is that there is no support bracket for the brake lines included, like some other manufacturers do (eg. tein). i had to do the ziptie thing. but you can buy those aftermarket for a few bucks (eg. HKS sells universal ones).

I have the same coilovers on my first gen... Modified of course. If you can get top and bottom mounts off an MKIV Supra for the rears, they will fit first gens.

yes. stance sent me all the replacement parts. i've reassembled the strut, but i am still trying to find a mechanic who will let me use an impact gun to make things tight again.
