09+ TL SH-AWD Needed for Suspension R&D in Los Angeles, CA County!!!

We are working on a coilover project with a very reputable company and we need a vehicle for R&D purposes in the Los Angeles, CA County. The car will be needed for roughly 3-5 business days.

Once the coilover has been produced we will offer the test fitter a discount for offering their vehicle.

Please PM us for more details.

Just some additional info:

In most cases the vehicle lender is provided with whatever product is tested on their vehicle. We usually require 3-5 days and may require the vehicle to come back for another 3-5 days. It really depends on fitment. The first time we borrow the car we take all standard measurements: vehicle weight, suspension design, suspension stroke, ride height, road test, damper dimensions, spring dimensions, clearances, etc... If something we have fits we will try it. If not, we will need to build a prototype. Once that arrives we will call the car owner back for product test fitment. During those 3-5 days we will install the prototype, check all clearance, road test, try different spring rates and shock valving until it meets our standards, etc...

So in summary, from Los Angeles area. 3-5 days, twice.

Car must be stock. Aftermarket wheels and minor bolt-ons are okay. Anything that would significantly alter vehicle weight or handling is not acceptable.
