First time I have seen an L-series offering, KMAC dont do them because there is very little room in the towers for the spring to move around so the actual adjustment you can get with standard springs is minimal before they hit the tower sides - combine this with the fact it is the same listed part as later model Subarus and i am a little dubious...

Unless you are running modified suspention with smaller diameter springs (ie coilovers such as Bilstein's) they wont help much I fear.

The Nolathane strut tops are not available to buy yet but I am taking orders for them.

I will have a trial set in the next few days, I let you all know how they go. There will be some caster adjustment on the 'L' series, but more camber adjustment.

The Nolathane design is totally different to the KMAC or Tein.

Any questions on them feel free to call me 0438 887 746 or email me [email protected]

Justin,
I have tried a couple of times to contact you and buy some nolathane, but your email server says your mailbox is full and there was no answer from you after left message on your mobile. Can you PM me if you read this to confirm message is getting through? Anyone else having the same trouble?
thanks
