Default My DRC is failing at 16K miles. I have slight oil leaks on the two front shocks. The weird thing

is the problem comes and goes. When I first start driving it handles like an old Buick but after awhile it seems to be able to build up some pressure or something and the ride improves although still not as good as original. Stasis/Ohlins SL's go on next week.

Default The funny thing is...

... my dealer's service foreman (who tends to be the one that works on my car) recommended "an aftermarket replacement for the DRC system." His comment on DRC: "Good design, poor execution."

Default Stasis SL with Stock Sways

I'm running SL with stock sways and love the setup. The car is as drivable on the road as it is on the track. With SL, you don't really need the sways IMO.

If you don't plan on tinkering with your ride height very often, you don't need the MS. The SL setup is identitcal to the MS, but without the adjustable front reservoirs.

Default Stasis MS + Hotchkis (rear at stiff)...

...I love my set-up for the track, but the H-Sports make the ride a little hard. w/ stock sways, I could have a better than stock ride when I wanted it, Hotchkis, not so much. Depends on how important a perfect ride is to you...
