Mugen coilover for GE8 :)

looks like Mugen has released coilover for the GE8. I am sure it wasn't available a few months ago.

It might be a good suspension set,
but for that price, I would rather buy Ohlins.
Unfortunately, Ohlins is out of my budget too

im not even sure if its any good since theres hardly any review on mugen suspension in general. i just find it interesting that mugen decides to release the coilover now.

Not a very aggressive spring rate of just 7kgf/mm front and 4kgf/mm rear. Mostly likely they are SHOWA based, which isn't a bad thing. Definitely tailored more for spirited driving than circuit duty.

Mugen's N1 sussies in the past were something very tasty, but not really heard of because they weren't marketed and most people are not about spending money which really only exists to be spent.
