Anyone heard of
these? I tried google and everyone's asking the same question.
I have a set of Koni inserts on order but who knows when, if ever, they will they show up. In the mean time the car has a blown strut on the rear and the others are weak, I need something, the car rides like crap. Depending on how much they charge to ship to Hawaii, I may try them.
$139 for a set of 4, I wonder if they'll last more than 6 months?

youd be better off getting a set of gr2's for a bit more $ maybe. A quick google found on a maxima forum said they cant handle more than a 1.5inch drop, and they blew out in 4-5months within 15k
havent seen any good reviews of em yet except for the random, "had em on for a month now"
quote " Just a little update, I saw this thread a while back and decided to try them, ordered all 4 and put in the 2 front ones in May.
The car is bone stock including the springs.
The're both blown as of a few days ago, the passenger side is worse than the drivers side.
So they lasted all of 4 months/15k km.
The're garbage as far as I'm concerned. It's a good thing the're 'sold out'

You're probably right, at $35 a strut I wouldn't expect to much. It might be a better idea to find a set of good used ones to keep from bouncing off the road until the Koni's show up..

I was reading up on them as well. I emailed them, telling them that jdmwerks (eBay seller) is selling your struts with Votgland springs, which the company advertises the car's drop at 1.6". I asked them if they would handle H&R Sport springs, which advertized drop is 1.5" front and 1.4" rear, as well as warranty the struts with those specific springs. I guess we'll see what they say. Oh yeah...most importantly...I asked if they had the tabs for cars with rear sway bars. If they don't, I'll go with KYB's. I don't want to mess with making brackets. I'd honestly like to try them out and make a review. If they come back with good things to say, I'll order 'em up. I'll be the damned guinea pig this time

Just an update...I tried emailing Stagg and the email never went through. I don't think I'd buy struts from a company that doesn't have a working email address, and that an email is the only way of communication...
