    Not exactly sure what that means . But the release of this info should answer a lot of the questions we've had from inquisitive people over the past few months, that we've not been able to answer up until now .
    This deal has been in process for many many months, long before a small batch arrived in the UK a few months ago.
    Now we have stock of over 300 sets of coilovers we're very proud to announce the above .
    Just to negate the need for people to read in between the lines: HSD Europe are the only official distributors of HSD products. We distribute HSD through various traders across Europe, and no trader can supply HSD products without going through HSD Europe.

    I imagine not, as we specified all our HSD's to the specs we built the CS1's too, but it depends if 'the small batch' were given an upgrade based on info Driftworks had given the factory or not.

    Ben, we may look into offering sponsorship discounts for a couple of people. If you want to send us a run down of your acheivements and realistic expectations for 09 to sales@hsdcoilovers.com we'll have a look into it .
    On a semi related note, I might see if I can enter the DWS15 into a couple of rounds of time attack next year. Of course that all depends on the drift calendar, and whether I can increase my confidence/skill by doing a few more track days in the BMW (which is soon to have it's KW V3's swapped for the first ever set of E46 M3 HSD coilovers I'm personally developing)

    I'm happy for you all, well done.

    I'll be looking at upgrading the Datsun's coilovers from D2's to HSD's next year

    There's no comparing with our DW CS1 coilovers, as they are the same product .
    Our DW CS2's are a different product though, even better specifications, but as they cost us more to manufacture, they cost more for you to buy.
    The DW CS1 will be fazed out by the HSD HR, as theres no point selling the same item in two colours, but we'll still continue to push the boundries of coilover technology with our Driftworks coilovers, as it's part and parcel of why we win competitions, and we don't want to stop doing that

    Congrats guys, its a big step forward for DW

    Do HSD only do coilovers or do they do a shock/spring setup like Nismo S-Tunes etc? also do they do any other products like brake setups/roll bars/bushes or are they suspension gurus only

    HSD are very much a suspension specialist, sticking to what they know best. They also make some very good monotube snowmobile, monster truck and custom chopper suspension I'm told
    It's an interesting question about the S-Tune type shock and spring option, I can certainly ask the question

    Tüv

    Can HSD coilovers be supplied with either Teilegutachten or §19 certificate for the Tüv region (ie. No-way).

    EDIT: S13 and S14?

    We have TUV approval under way. We can't give an exact completion date just yet, but we expect it before the middle of the year
