The Meisterr Zetas are pretty good lookin' too. Of the three posted they seem to be the highest priced at $1000 or so USD.

Most review for street daily use Full bodies where Funtion Form F1, as I wanted more track so I went with Skunk2 since they back their products more than any other company that I have seen in the past few years and I did not want something that I would have to send around the world for warranty or for parts.

Looking at the Meister-R Zeta S You have some options and the spring rates on the super lows and the originals would ride the best. You go anything over 6k in the rear and it will not be comfortable to drive for long periods on the street.

I had great experience with PIC's warranty and customer service. I think I had to mail them to IL!

Yes they do, there are companies out there that do have great customer service and quality. But there are a ton of knock off companies out there as well. So before you buy you have to research the company.

You ordered ITR coil overs and will need ITR rear control arms. Most ITR coil overs are much superior to the fork setups.

- Fri Jan 13, 2012 8:49 pm #289865 Id Say Ksport Hands down. Their stuff is made here in house in the US. and for me customer Service has been great. There is never any doubt when i speak to any of them over there.

and Replacement parts are usually over stocked so they have plenty!! and the prices ont he replacement parts are competitive and reasonable. And i spaek from experience. But your out in the UK right? so I would source something a little more closer to home. so not to deal witht he overseas headaches and wait times..
