Any update on these? Have you received yours yet?

No update yet, was in contact with Komo-Tec last week and they where waiting for them to arrive from Nitron. Didn't get any new timeframe.

I got this today:
Thanks for reaching out. We haven't officially released the Emira i4 kit but it is available for purchase. The product release with all the details will be coming out within the next couple of weeks.
Do you primarily use the car for street driving? Maybe aggressive street?
If so, I would recommend an R1 kit with our Fast road spring spec. Same setup we put on our development kit on Peter Kang's Emira. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/turbo-emira-nitron-install-tuning.6776/#post-185302
This would lower your car about 10mm to as much as 40mm.
You can purchase a kit directly from us or any of our authorized dealers.

Our R1 kit retails for $3,000 and ships for $99. There's currently a tariff charge of 5% which would bring the total to $3,249.
This is our most cost-effective solution and it will give you the performance, comfort and ride height you want.
Please give me a call if you'd like to discuss or let us know how you would like to proceed.

I got my R1 Fast Road kit delivered today from Nitron UK/ bought via KomoTec in Germany.
Has any else bought this kit from zNitron UK, and can tell me the spring rates you got?

I'm just curious about the spring rates as I suspect the ones I got is a bit hard.
It's 600 lbs front and 1000 lbs rear.

The standard spring rates for this kit are 400 lbs/" front & 650 lbs/" rear. Based on info on the GRP Website. Please share your experience with instal and set up. I purchased lowering sleeves but have considered these as well. I wasnt sure how they would be set up out of the box and wasnt confident in my ability to get them dialed in if they needed adjustment

anyone know if the r3 cup sport can have the front axle lift? seems like the canister would get in the way but I dunno.

I have the fast road 400/650 set and find them a bit soft. If you want to swap springs let me know! I think 1000 might be a bit hard for the rear, but interested to know your thoughts. Last time I looked fast road for V6 was meant to be 400/650 and Clubsport 600/850. Similar weights to i4 so rates shouldn't change too much.

Hi!
I'm waiting for the suspension guy at Komo Tec to reply if it's a mixup in my order, or a reason for why he thinks it should be this stiff.

I haven't mounted it yet, and will probably not do any testing before April as the winter is coming here now and the car will just stay in the garage.

If I change springs the shocks should also be re-valved to suit other springs, so it's a bit more work involved than just swapping springs.
