I don't think that will be necessary.
Ok Guys,
Here is an update for you. I have spoken to CircuitMS and we have agreed that I will ship my car down to Florida to get these coilovers in production. I will keep you all updated on the date that we come up with. That means that no one will be out a car and also that these coilovers will be tested on the vehicle prior to selling them. CicuitMS as also agreed to take pics and post them for you guys once everything is in production and ready to go. Here is what I need from the guys that are interested:
This is the current list I have. Please add yourself if you are interested in going with this set up.
1. 01a4man
2. Tungo
3. GS350on22s
4. IXI187IXI
5.
Payment Terms
As stated previously in this thread there will be a $100.00 USD NON-Refundable deposit (Credit Card is preferred and safer for all of us involved). Your deposit will be refunded if the coilovers cannot be produced. Also note that your deposit will be applied to the price of the coilover. Also as previously stated the approximate price point is $1150.00-1250.00 USD. The exact price will be disclosed when the manufacturing is complete. CircuitMS feels pretty confident though that it will not exceed $1250.00 for the complete kit. Please keep in mind one thing. IF these kits are going to be just like the IS, there will be options such as pillow mounts, etc.. The price will change for such options if they are available to us. CircuitMS will probably update you guys on that.
I am in the process of finding out if the deposits will be done by paypal or through the Circuit Motorsports shop. CircuitMS or myself will update you ASAP on this. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let one of us know.
Congrats guys, looks like this pretty much in the bag!

I spoke with BC today and they are good to go on using a4mans car for testing.
I will get in touch with the memebers on the sign-up list for the deposit info, it will either be a paypal or CC through us. I will keep you on the list and you will be guranteed one of the first production kits available. If anyone else wants to add themselves to the list just post up or PM me.
Pillowball mounts are a spherical bearing that provides a lot more suspension/chassis feedback than a rubber mount. However Pillowball mounts are known to be noisier than their rubber mount counterparts. Rubber mounts will absorb more NVH. You can specify either for your kit.

Adjustable Rear Camber Kit
I know this may be slightly off topic. However, being that BC and Circuit MS is going to be working on a coilover setup, do you think they have the capability to perform R&D work on developing and producing an adjustable rear camber kit for the GS? I'd be interested in putting a deposit for that.

The Lexus front and rear suspension uses A-arms, so they are not camber adjustable using a top camber-plate. They must be adjusted using the lower links or camber bolts, so a camber plate basically won't work in this application.
I will get you all set up and on the list for payments starting this evening. I will PM all of you on the list for your info.
Anyone else want to get on the list for the first kits we order?
