You do realize that thousands of road racers across the country use coilover sleeves don't you?

Still goes back to the fact that they are less expensive. Point proven. Well unless there's some new survey out for coil-over application usuage, I would have to put that under opinion (for now.... ).

Fact - strut tower braces do very little for the car's performance. In a race car they may have some impact but I have to tell you that in my car I didn't notice a difference - and it isn't a street car. The reason STBs are so popular is because race cars have them, they are easy to install and they look cool. The actual increase in stiffness is nominal at best.
Fact? Where's your data? All I see is an opinion. I never said it was a HUGE difference. But they do help.

I never said you didn't want that. What I said is why bother with all the bells and whistles when you could have what you are looking for for substantially less money? I assure you that having compression and rebound adjustments won't mean dick on the street because you aren't pushing the car hard enough to notice (unless you are a ****ing ass behind the wheel).

Because of the height adjustment! I already said that. And yes I'm an ass behind the wheel . I drive like a nut (in areas where there isn't traffic anyhow).

Man my fingers are getting tired.....
