As always we will see what the best price we can do for our CL members, but I wanted to see how many are interested in this setup? The more people we have interested, we might be able to get a better price with a qty price.

BC-GS430...I understand that you say the LS+ can go a lot stiffer than the CS, but can it go softer also? I was wondering if it can go as soft as stock? Thanks. Also, I PM'd you w/ a question. It'd be very appreciated if you could give any info on that too (didn't want to tie this thread up w/ anything else). Thanks for your time.

Drew is getting me a set of the HKS LS+ coilovers too!
Thanks for all your help Drew. It's really great when CL members help each other out. This is a big one - Buying and shipping a set of coilovers to the states for another member. Drew's just been awesome in helping me get a set. I'm looking forward to getting these, putting them on, and writing a review for all of you.

's for Drew!!!

i am on the phone with the local HKS distributor here in canada, and they are telling me that the LS+ is discountinued from the north american lineup, and that the current one is the RS, which is a rebadge of the old LS2?

also, what is the shock body made out of? steel or aluminum? don't want steel because it's heavy and is guaranteed to rust no matter what coating they use from past experience![Frown](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
so confused...

Ride seems to be on par with what I'm looking for. I've tried searching but does anyone have pics of their hks on the lowest setting? Another member had mentioned that the front doesn't tuck?

i have the LS+ and i have them pretty close to stock ride comfort. you can slam your ride pretty low and the shock is made out of aluminum. as an added plus, they don't make noise like some teins.
i found a past post that has LS+ and it's slammed pretty low. check out the pics..
