Anyone use the front coilovers from Mod Mustang Racing (MMR)?

Are they good?

http://www.modularmustangracing.com/ (products->suspension components)

They are on sale (at turbomustangs.com) for about $160 shipped.

I have them on, work great. No problems at all with the install. I have a primarily road racing strut on now, but soon will switch to a Strange adjustable strut.

Zen, what coil over for a road race spring. The 300lb spring or the 175. I wanna go with a track/strip spring so I was looking at the 175.

I have the 175's for drag racing. I'm switching my suspension setup from road racing to street/strip. So right now my suspension really isn't optimized, but I put the coil overs on anyway since I was sick of looking at them in my garage.

175 isn't too bad for the street, the 300 handles really nice, my friend has a set on his street/autocross car. The 175's will pop up nice at the strip

Good to hear about the 175's response at the track, but how would you rate them on cornering too, since its suppose to be a track/strip spring. Is it too soft or could I have some fun with them.

biltstein coilover kit ... is that new? i don't remember seeing one when i ordered mine, but it is just as well because biltsteins are too rich for my blood anyway.

$149 is a good deal, i got mine (also mmr's -- the road race/street handling kit -- for $160 shipped)

It is pretty new for the bilsteins, it's $10.00 more, how do you like the the road race/street handling kit? did you get the 300# springs? how's the quality? and last how does it ride now? smoother more comfortable? or harsher?

i have not had time to install them yet, we have been up to our ears selling 2 houses (my inlaws and mine) and buying one (for all of us to live in). i'm no sure what #age the springs are, just that it is the road race/street handling package.
