Quick little video...
This is actually from a few months ago, an old friend of mine had a couple of hours in transit in Bangkok so we met up at the airport and took her for a ride (nothing dirty, fellows ), and she took a little video while in the car... So you can see the effects of the suspension on even a relatively smooth highway, and the overpowering drone of the exhaust. Oh and my ugly mug too, I made the effort to shave but ended up with a bit of a razor rash

Nothing dirty, true, but your friend still sounds pretty excited!

I was waiting for you to sing La Marseillaise as the revs climbed.

Wow... that suspension really has an effect... The highway looked super smooth, yet the car looked like it was off-road or something (judging from the camera work and your friend's "it so bumpy" comment).
I'm starting to have doubts about changing my own suspension... Will NF210's (or maybe even Megan coilovers) have as big an effect on handling as your Tein's?

well the highway is not thaaat smooth, it's the new airport highway, so the divider thingies between the sections of actual road are still pretty big. And, the movement of her arms also does amplify the effect on camera. It's not uncomfortable, but you do feel the road surface pretty well. And remember, these are with TEIN's pretty high-end Super Street coilovers, not the much softer Basic Compact dampers available in north america
Personally I like the rougher ride, I have a bad habit of getting sleepy very fast in a comfortable, quiet long drive...
