only height adjustable

This isn't specific to any product or brand out there but unless you put a shock on a shock dyno and click through all the different settings, you really have no idea what each little click will do to the dampening control. Most people don't need that kind of adjustability nor does it necessarily mean it's a better product. We have had plenty of success with our coil-over kits on top notch race cars.

A proper suspension setup starts with spring rates, then goes to dampening control, then alignment, then sway bars for the finishing touch. If you need more adjustments after playing with all of those settings adding more adjustments to the equation generally just adds to the confusion.

Kurse, PM sent. Have you considered posting this on gotogroupbuy.com? Already go some Fit owners there that are into group buys. There is an Icon grill there now. We might be able to fill the list up faster this way. We can also send Joey an invite to take over. LMK.

Its not the same thing and price range
skunk2, the damper are ajustable and the height
progress, only the height

skunk2: around 1400
progress: around 1000

But IMO, skunk2 make a lot of parts are they are not specialised in suspension vs Progress who only make Suspension parts and test it on real race car top notch!
I think the part of developement are better with Progress.

So you can make your opinion..

When do we know the final cost??
What is the weight can be handle??

My friend has a K swap in the Fit and he had been looking for the progress coilover for a while, he just wants to know can it handle the extra weight from the K engine.
