Many Thanks for making this happen.

 

glad to see some springs are finally available!

 

Looks good! How does it ride compared to stock?

Are the springs available for sale now?

 

yeah,,, this is sydtoosic again. you know i'm stalking you. she looks good lowered. how low did you go? unfortunately in N.Y. i refuse to go low. i don't want the headache. in CALI you guys can somewhat throw caution to the wind. an inch or an inch and a half is as far as i will go. i would love to slam the car and add sic mods, camber kits and so on and so forth. This Sh*#@tty city is not the place for it IMHO. i'll spend more time and money repairing than enjoying my car. well,,,, she looks good i'm glad you're having fun with her. :thumb up:. What are your next plans?

 

looks really good man, congrats!

 

So A6 is this your car? I need these ASAP!

 

i will answer for him -- yes it is

 

a6, you are so fortunate to be living in the center of it all, getting all the latest inovations for the latest car for free. I would be doing the same if was in your position. There is nothing out here in El Paso, TX that would trust my GS F-Sport with.

 

^ ditto... what he said. won't trust anyone here in n.y. with my F-Sport.

 

Same as sydtoosic, I won't be lowering my car for practical considerations.

HOWEVER, I'm looking really hard at the strut tower bar offered for the GS F-Sport :

OMG. Praise all things good. Me too.

They ride great. They feel just like stock; only the car is lower. Handles incredible & no compromise on performance an comfort

Thank you again... I think Next plans... Big brake kit, Some 3 piece SSR wheels, I am not 100% sure... I plan to look into what's available. As for now I will keep my eye on developments for the new GS.

+1 Rominl speaks the truth, this beauty belongs to me. Hey Rominl, It was good seeing you at the meet last night.

I am truly blessed & grateful to be able to be living in SoCal & working with amazing people and companies that want to develop new products for this incredible car. I love the great things that manifested during my interaction will all the great members from this site.

The strut bar does add rigidity. It was part of the R&D package.

 

 

recommended for RWD only, correct?

Looks great! Thanks for being the tester for them.

 

I called Tanabe yesterday. They said the springs are not available yet :-(. Also does your car have Rear Steer. I am hoping we can use the springs for that.

 

Thank you jtrue28.I am very lucky to have the chance to do so...Yes. This GS is RWD you would have to check with Tanabe to see if they are transferable to the AWD.

Keep your fingers crossed that they will have these publicly available soon. No, this model does not have the DRS equipped & I am unsure of how the DRS effect the spring setup. I would recommend checking with Tanabe on that one
