I don't doubt you but for the purposes of future search results, would you care to elaborate slightly?

Am on a mates computer at the moment, hence the differnt user name.
The D2's are made in Taiwan, look very pretty but that is pretty much it.
Valving does not match the spring rates which are also way to much for UK roads and the seals in the shocks will blow on a very regular basis.
Also they stick horrendously, get out of the car and watch it rise up suddenly after a few seconds.
As stated, total CRAP

We are about to run another Gb on Apex coilovers. They offer superb value for money, are pretty well suited to UK roads (all be it with a sportier ride than standard which will sacrifice some really knarly bumpy back road abilities) and, importantly, we are here for back up. D2 doesnt have a UK distributer any more so if you have any problems then youre stuffed.
With the GB prices youll not find anything in the Uk that touches our setup.

Sorry sorry sorry sorry, my fault. Not only did I end up spending all day with the Skyline builders on Friday but all day Sat them my baby daughter was 1 year old on Sunday, we had a filming session with the BBC Monday at Santa Pod and then a test day at Oulton with the cars new 12 pot 380s yesterday!
Phew, busy week. The GB is coming any day.
My apologies for the delay, things have been a little hectic recently, I have been poor with my time management.
Watch out for our Skyline on TV on Sat morning, 10th May. Its on 'Breakfast' on BBC1 and is a small slot shown four times between 6am and 10am
