I know some people may frown on going a cheaper route, but I have two other cars in the stable that require regular cash deposits So I went with the Megan for the price, 32 way dampening, brake line bracket, top hats included, etc. After a couple of days, I am very impressed. I am set 4 clicks from the softest setting and it rides very close to stock without the float you get over bumps on factory. I can still go about 1 1/2" front and 2" rear. Long term, who knows but it was worth a shot for me.

i've searched through both clublexus and vsc and it seems that a good amount vip cars here in the states are running megans. i was suprised to see that people are actually recommending these for the comfortable ride and extreme drop that it provides. i think i'm actually going to buy these instead of tein SS now. btw, if you guys are interested hit up M1_omar in the dealers special, he's offering them for crazy cheep.
