I used pro-tech dampers on my Phantom GTR, they were good and held up to the elements well. I can't remember the exact history but I think the Pro-tech owner was with one of the other companies and then left and set up on his own. The fact that they are relatively small and build to order to your exact specs cheaper than any competitors in ally rather than steel means they win hands down for me...

I used Gaz on my GTM Libra, they corroded quickly and the damping rate was poorly matched, owners often had to do a DIY calibration side to side to get them close to matching, not able to rely on just doing same number of clicks on each side! The bushes tended to destroy themselves after a year or so too...

I had AVO on my speedster, these also suffered from corrosion.

Hopefully they will arrive today and I'll get some pics up tonight... If you can't wait, look in my friend's sti speedster replica build blog, link is on my site...

Can't argue with that! Good find!
