*SOLD*

I'm gauging interest. I got the DRM coilovers from that jeffvette GB a while back. They were $850 shipped, and that's all I want for them. Springs are 425in/lb front and 275in/lb rear. If you prefer, I'd ordered them 300in/lb rear and so it should be no biggie to get those instead, but 275 is what I've got now if that happens to be what you'd prefer.

I've had some time to think about them since buying them, and really I think I'm happy with the stock setup. While it might feel a little "soft", that doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't handle well. It handles well enough for me, at any rate.

If no one is interested, then I'll think about putting them on the car. But if someone wants them, it makes that decision a lot easier.

They do not include shocks, so the FX3 option doesn't really come into play, I don't believe. But yes, I purchased them to work with the stock ZR-1 shocks. The shock body has to be modified (a groove cut in it) to retain the spring mount.

I have (obviously) not mounted them yet, so I'm not the expert on how they go on. However, they are the standard kit DRM sells, and you can probably search for lots of info on how they work/install, etc.

FYI, I have 425 and 300 springs for the kit now. All brand new in the box.

Curious if you still have this set up.

Thanks Ajay

Aurora40 · 08-05-2009

I do.

Bob, so you have 425/300 springs as well as another set of 275s?

Thanks
