Dirk,

Nice set up.. was curious if you can share some info on those..

The struts look like bilstiens, single adjustable..

It seems that they have poly bushings with spacer for the top and bottom made of alum.

What is the combined weight of the springs.. Both lower and helper.. would be curious to see what rememelle feels is a good spring K-value for their cars..so that an equivalent torsion bar and helper spring can be determined.

Thanks and congrats, wish I had the money..
Alex
