I was in on the last group buy. I am very pleased with the new shocks. Much better than the stock ones. Those of you who are considering this, I wouldnt think twice. These ride much better than stock shocks in the best and worst conditions.

For anybody who's on the fence, just do it! I had a very busy summer so I just got mine installed on the Z06 last weekend with help from Shark Racer- thanks Steve! Since then I've been making up reasons to drive the car.
I'd say that ride quality is about the same except that, while you can still feel bumps or dips in the roadway, the car doesn't feel skittish in the back anymore. The biggest difference, and it's very noticeable to me, is when you apply the throttle during and coming out of corners the car takes a mild squat and just plants itself to the pavement. It's a bit hard to describe but it puts a smile on my face every time. The car feels much more composed and compliant to the road. Before it felt like oversteer was just a bump or crack of the throttle away. The enjoyment I get from driving the hilly, curvy roads in my area has definitely increased. These shocks are well worth the money.

these are awesome shocks - so much better than stock. Great ride (i think better than oem) and with much better stability over bumps and road imperfections. This is an excellent mod that is easy to do and will yield awesome results at a great price. You will feel the positive difference these shocks make. Randy, thanks again!
