Late reply, but I didn't over analyze anything. I am pretty sure I did not analyze anything at all. I am a big fan of your car and a big fan of Ro Ja's previous car, which was similar to yours. I was just wondering why you over clarified the rarity of having a simple strut/spring combo.

As I had stated earlier, I already told him that I had not had time to test out the suspension and give a credible answer to his question about the suspension's performance. I was just stating that it was difficult for me to find any info as well because the suspension is "rare."

Building a K20 with Toda parts? You might as well pick up some IPS parts . . . you'll see better gains.

Yes, I completely understand. I was trying to clear up the fact about why I asked that question. Just put the car on a shock dyno, it will prove how much potential the strut can perform.

I actually have a shock dyno provided from the shop that had them revalved with the new springs. I will see if I can find it and throw it up here on the forum for those of you interested in the setup. IPS parts? I'll definitely have to look into that. The lotus has actually just been sitting in the garage collecting dust for the past month and a half or so. 
no time/money to work on it. I do, however, have a few things coming in for the S2000, so I'll have to post some updates soon.

Brake pictures, stat.� 
the 13" rotors are huge! I held up the AP Racing calipers next to my project mu's and they are noticably larger.
