I'm sure it will all depend on which class you want to run.

Only in very open classes. D-stock, CSP, STX, SM, SM2 and SU are all definitely out. I think they would be okay in Modified and Prepared though. Of course, those classes are for purpose-built racecars with almost no restrictions.

That's just a matter of using different strut tops. When the WRX first became available, DMS was able to sell GC/GM kits simply by adding a rear strut top adapter plate. The spring perches would allow compensation for different strut lengths.

hmmm, I know but the way they monut the remote resevoir at the top like that looks like it might pose some problems.... I'm sure once they're out and theres demand prodrive will do a version for us. Hell if it is possible to do myself then I'd love a suspension that knows before I do that a bump is going to throw me off line and automatically adjusts

Sounds like magic snake oil if it wasn't from prodrive... the ones who can make 'magic snake oil' actually work

The strut towers in the GD chassis are about the same shape as the GC. Should be about the same amount of room in each.

About time this one came back up again. I heard end of the year at the earliest. I would pick this over the Praxis setup. Don't need on the fly height adjustments (although the auto corner balancing is cool) or the extra weight of all the related equipment.) Would rather have the dynamic damping adjustment.

I'll get it... as soon as I hit the Lotto...

I know what it's like to have a product "about to come out" for a couple years, so I feel the pain of the poor salespeople at Prodrive. Keep ya heads up!!
