    It must only be in Japan right now b/c I saw it on an Axela website. I believe the model for the Tanabe spring was T2000.

    I posted something before with regards to certain types of information like FAQ\'s TSB\'s & DSB\'s being a sticky in another thread and some @sswipe told me that if people wanted to see it they would reply to the thread and it would be fresh.arc

    I thought quick referencing of a collaboration of info would be easier on top rather than people having to dig through $#it. Anyways, I\'m the newbie around here and when I get my M3 very few peeps will get my Jerk Chicken at MOM.:hoho

    Thanks for the info, it is now added. Damn, what good prices and Canadian dollars too.

    that asswipe would be me. really, there\'s no need for name calling it\'s as bad as me being \'rude\' as someone mentioned. GET OVER IT, i told you that you could have bumped the OTHER (existing) thread and/or notify the mods if you wanted to make it a sticky. i did NOT tell you not to make it a sticky.

    anyway.. if we keep bumping this one the mods might see it and sticky it - how\'s that? better? :p

    and no thanks.. but i don\'t wanna jerk your chicken

    I should have not pressed that issue about making things a sticky. I just joined and I didn\'t want to give the impression that I came up in here like I waz payin\' da rent. I feel like an unwanted in-law who just moved in.

    Car Review Dot Com <Suspension-Springs> Try the hyperlink just pasted. It is an on-line \'word on the curb, regular guy\'s slang editorial and testimonial forum rating system.\' The most popular are there but digging and google searches on the less popular would have to be done.

    If your new to the lowering spring game and thinking of it, you want a combonation of style, functionality, quality and good engineering from R&D to production. The websites I posted hopefully will spur one to look into a homepage of a manufacturer further and look up the R&D, a company\'s history, heritage and processing.

    And yes the more popular names seem to rule and of course the Eibach and H&R names come to the forefront as we all watch SPEED T.V. and they are the forerunners in many types of race classes NASCAR, WRC, TOURING ETC. Yet I would also stick with Japaneese stuff too. Read other car board to see what the majority of owners have been going with too.

    H&R and Eibach also produce OEM springs unlabled for Porsche, Audi, BMW etc. Notice how German cars are engineered to handle straight out the factory. Look on most cars on the road today. Every automobile could be a wee bit sexier if the wheelwell gap to the tire were closed about 1\" at least for a tidier sleeker look. But the better companies have researched and tested actual models to get rid of the excessive brake-dive, acceleration squat, transition wallow while providing a firmer yet compliant ride still with an OEM shock or strut.

    Pricing is another issue. Everyone seems to have a friend of a friend of a friend of a buddy of a friend who got a good deal somewhere.

    after reading the home pages .. b+g and intrax both sounds like they are very high quality .. Intrax is race proven and very popular on the motorcycle scene and b+g is swedish and have been making springs for a long time and have a automated computer manufacturing system .. they both give limited life time warrentees ...

    I think i might go with Intrax

    The new mazdaspeed spring kit includes the camber links.. Look for a full decked out M3sport in the Mazda Canada Booth at the Montreal and Toronto car shows..

    does any one of the other companies include the rear camber links. i think that i would rather spend the extra dough to save my rear tires.
