All i want is a very adjustable shock, some 600-800 lb springs, with threaded body for heigh adjustability from 1-3 inches. ALL FOR UNDER 1500 -- IS THAT TO MUCH TO ASK?

that is all

Yeah, but its worth four times as much at half the cost... inverse law of value ;-)

Dump, the OEM shocks. Those springs beg for grooved Bilsteins by design.

Default if you call Stasis they will probably...

tell you that there will be minimal shock adjustment necessary after they tune it to your needs.

but i see your point. it's quite a bit to fork over without even so much as a test drive.

i got 20 minutes in RKA's car earlier this month. it was pretty decent. but i would have to drive it all day to make sure i was getting what i wanted before forking over $2000+.

i personally happen to think if i get the correct springs w/ custom valved Koni's i can have what i need in a daily driver and part time track car.

and actually i will call Stasis to see what we can put together within my budget.
