No, the dampers / shocks / shock housings are not the same and are valved completely differenently as they is a noticable difference in simple ride feel between the 2. somewhere on one of the toyota or 300zx boards did a shock dyno comparison and they were no where near each other.

Incorrect. BC and Powertrix are in no way affiliated. BC is manufactured in Taiwan and Powertrix is manufactured in Korea. Powertrix does private label for a few other coilover companies (Not BC)

Sure no problem. I'm sure many will appreciate CORRECT information.
Many would also agree to post that which is not false and helps the community instead of uselessness that does not help anyone. Never figured to get chastized for that. Just expected a bit more maturity on this board. LOL. Enjoy.

If anybody was looking for this info they stopped looking in Oct 2011,and for a newbie I would have expected more maturity in knowing that forums don't want to revive threads.

Umm not really? For the record I actually read through all 4 pages. Decent info.

That being said most times necrothreads are a PITA and useless
