Snap em up, but do find out if they are R or E type? R is for race and E are optimized for the road. As after all you wouldn't want race ride all the time hehe.

dont the 'R' have inverted shocks?

either way, very good bits of kit.

I have Zero 2E's, with the E-con controller, and love them!

Just check that you can get spares should you need them. I know a lot of our Nissan customers are struggling with HKS coilovers that are developing faults. They cant get spares or get them refurbed and as such they have a very expensive set of usless coilovers that they cant do anything with I know of multiple customers in this position.

imho cusco are a nightmare for spares and replcement as there based in japan. my zero2rs were great untill the rears started leaking then the dampers went and i try'd to send them off to be re-furbed, no chance! try to buy a rear set, no chance! only full set can be sold. by co-ord sport (cusco dealers). so i replaced the lot with tien monoflex (zero2r equivalent).
so unless you can speak japaneese or your buying a brand new set i would stick to a brand and there r many, that are based closer to home.
