    I got a package today that looked battered and beaten and weighed a lot, it came from japan. Guess what was in it?

    Cusco zero 2-R Coilovers for a GC8. Not too easy to come by, I had to wait about 3 months for them to get here

    they're not cheap. New the GC's go for about $2500, and arent sold in the usa. a lot of websites mention them since cusco made them but nobody actually has some, they'd have to be shipped from japan. They don't sell a lot of them due to the price I'd imagine.

    The adjustments are on the bottom on the zero 2 struts because they're inverted. Theyre on the top on the rest of them. you can just crank the steering to full lock and reach under there to change the dampening, so its not so bad. to do the backs all you need to do is slightly crawl under the car instead of removing the back seat.
