Project IS350 - Final Stage - D2 Racing Sport
To be honest, I'd never thought I'd see the day, that a Joe-z car had any other suspension, than OEM.
After how many years did your 1gen sit sport suspension JOE? hahah
I'm glad you did it. Now lower it more
Jk.....

LOL - fair enough. I wasn't trying to bash in any way, because I dealt with the same questions about KSport. But I guess I am curious about the differentiators between the D2 coils and the other brands. Due to your rep on this board, a lot of members pay attention to the mods you make to your car (JoeZ intake, anyone? 
). So I figured that there has to be a solid reason that you went with D2 over Tanabe/TEIN/H&R/JIC/yada yada. And since you're the first ISx50 with D2 parts (afaik), you've become the official D2 evangelist. 
Don't get me wrong - your car looks bada$$.

After all the research I have done, I figured it was time to add another coilover brand to this mix.. LoL..
I am looking forward to testing out these coils for the long term. I know for a fact that there were more than a few D2 coils sold already for the ISx50... But I guess none of these owners are on CL..
Change is good and sometimes you can get lucky with a quality product with out paying over $2,000 for it
Will see..

I reached out to my contact at KSport for an answer to this question. Here's what I got -
"D2 has some similar products but they are not the same product, we both offer different items. As with any company we dont make 100 percent of our parts in house so part suppliers are free to sell to other companies as well."

Its kinda like the whole Camaro & Firebird thing from the 80's & 90's...
I am sure there are variations between both products...
