I just got the tanabes installed last week; they are great!!!! Car feels more firm; no negative effects whatsoever on daily driveability in terms of being too stiff. However; the one dip I pass by on the way home from work every day; that is proving to be a minor nuisance.

I went with the Hotchkis Stage 1 TVS system on my daily driver. Nice setup, but they are a little too soft when pushed. I am looking into Tanabe's GF120s, but I am concerned that they might be too stiff for a daily driver.

a little bit off topic, but to anyone that has Tein S-Techs. is your front end really stiff? like to the point where you cant even push it down? the rear flexes some, but the front is super stiff.
