Shaikh, I've got a new sports car that has standard Bilsteins that you might be interested in doing a project for. I'll let you know when I'm back up in the Bay Area.
Yes, you've been a big help since the beginning - design ideas, feedback, and overall support. I'm still craving an RX-8 for our stable, they're addictive. Smooth, fast, sophisticated.

Curious about your new Billie-equipped sportscar, give me a ring when you're up here.

Interesting to see the same spring rates front and rear, while other setups utilize significantly stiffer springs in front vs rear. Have you pushed hard enough to determine whether the car understeers or oversteers at the limit? Your setup would suggest oversteer...

From the first page, looks like he is on 400 / 392 with a progress tech front sway bar. I'd assume/guess stock rear sway, so the front sway is basically making up for the spring ratio and the end result should be a reasonably neutral balance.
