You made the right choice. No more body roll at all now on my car. I can actually feel the stock Contis roll over now if I yank the wheel hard like when you do an emergency lane change. New tires in a couple months will take care of that.

Interesting. I am waiting for mine too. Ordered them the first week of January. I assume that OTTP is looking into the unfilled orders by Pedders. I sure hope that they come soon (especially for you as you have been waiting about 2 months).

Waited 3 months for mine to come in. They have a ton made up over in Australia but they are not shipping them over here fast enough. The date codes on my springs were July and October of 2009. I ordered them December 11th and they came February 5th.

if we toss a little more damping force in yours, or maybe even make the jounce bumper longer (more progressive engagement) to help slow down the compression body movements, the H&R's on your car would be bang on.
i really liked the way your car felt, not as harsh as i was expecting(the tire plays into things here) she(or he i should say) felt good. progressive, aggressive. twas nice.
sure made my set-up feel even more uncivil.

True, the H&R's ride really nice. I've never driven a TC other than Marisa's, so i cannot comare, but it felt good compared to my coilovers. A little more compliant, and a little softer on turn in etc. Overall pretty good. We should get her some Nitrogen charged hyrdo-bumps
i've some how made suspension talk cute?
lol, thanks babe. :P

its not so much that it bottoms out, its that when you load up the spring quickly (bump at speed) say 1m/sec or so, and that H&R spring un-coils, the damper just isnt tight enough.
if you get a bit more jounce bumper in there, that'll all add rate so it should slow the body motions down, but it'll probably cause more head toss / pitch.
hrmmm......need to think about it.
if it fits, i'm swapping on a set of the 46mm mono's from bilstein as they are re-valve-able.

I've got a friend on here that bought a set of springs in Oct/Nov if I remember right. He still hasn't gotten them. It stinks when he's been charged for them already and they're not even technically in the mail or anything. I "sprang" for some from another vender just recently that will be shipping them direct from Pedders, so I'll see if mine get here first. (The cat's out of the bag Pyros... )
I've been wanting to buy an OTTP Street Bar, but the website says they're out of them (and appears they have been for a while) and I've tried contacting OTTP about five times now through different forms to try to get status on it and haven't been able to get in contact with them. I can't order from them if they won't respond, so that's why I gave up and went elsewhere this time.
