Latest update spoke to Steven from VIP again he was able to get touch with distributor of the parts from japan they said we would receive shipping number and part would ship next week. I told Steven that I had started thread about this kit and there was a lot of interest in this item that several people were waiting to how well this worked. Steven was aware of thread and was going to send link to distributor in Japan to how much interest there is in this kit. So if you guys in Japan are reading this thread please get this kit out to me as asap so I can install it and do review if it works well you may potential have large group of people interested in purchasing this kit.

In for the pics and your comments. Are you gonna get it aligned aswell? I'd like to see how the camber/toe would change.

UK gets them a LOT quicker...not sure anyone in the states has got theirs from VIP yet and it's been what....3 months?? Cant's wait to see what yours looks like, but I'm most likely going with swift springs to avoid dealing with VIP and the waiting on everything.
