Your car looks amazing, I have always loved those wheels. I must add that your photography skills are great too, fantastic parking to make use of lighting. It gives that nice gradient that makes silver really shine.


Awesome! (thumb)

thanks a lot for all the positive feedback! I shoot for a hobby and thought that the SFO area was a great place to snap off a few with my new 40D.

I was thinking coilovers due to bound/rebound adjustabilty. To my knowledge there were no tuned spring/shock combos for the MS3 that offered such dual abjustabilty. I could really care less about ride height. I've done the slammed thing ages ago and the negatives easily outweigh the positives IMHO. Any ideas when the CP-E/Koni combo will hit?

What size RE01R's did you go with?

Edit- nevermind... see it in your signature: 225/40ZR18

Ride looks great. Go with the BC Coilovers...

The koni with damping?!

What are you looking for in a suspension setup...?
CP-E is currently R&Ding a Koni setup with matched springs. It won't be height adjustable, but it will be the best performing springs/shocks out there. If you're into looks, then any coilover will do...

How far away till production? I have respect for cp-e. Who should I contact, please?

I have no idea...they are still R&Ding... They should be working with Koni on custom valving some shocks. They still have to work on the springs.
The only contact I know is "stretch" on the forum who started the tread. He is the one personally working the project.

Nice man. I noticed you got your MS3 at Capitol Mazda, I got mine there 4 months ago too. Are you ever in San Jose?
