I did. Adjusting height through preload is fucking retarded.

A big company like JIC perhaps? Last i heard there was a group buy with JIC offering custom spring rates and JIC would even revalve the shocks to match the spring rates. Yet when the customers got the coilovers, NONE of the shocks were actually revalved. Great company huh?
I don't anything about that to make a comment.. Perhaps the middle man with the group buy fucked the order. I wasn't there so I can't make judgement.

Just because the thing is MADE IN JAPAN doesnt automatically make it a good product.
Usually it's the ones that are still made in Japan that are the good products as most Japanese brands have their products made in Taiwan now...

Quote:
So how many custom built Japanese coilovers have you tested against the European/American brands? None i assume.
None but I have had nothing with great experience with the very same companies you're currently trying to call shit.

Then what are your credentials to say that he is full of ignorance? You're the one that is pretty ignorant if you ignore a person's credentials. If you're calling bullshit on his work, then provide some evidence to back up your claim.
Anyone that says such and such company kicks ass and is the only person to buy from and all other shit sucks is ignorant. Granted I do a lot of shit because I like a certain brand but I'm not so fast to call other stuff out there junk.

Quote:
What makes you so smart? Your "experience" with certain coilovers? Again, show me some evidence.
I know what works and I don't need some guy with "race experience" telling me it's crap when I've seen people prove otherwise.

You sound like one angry person, take a step back and think about what you're saying. You havnt proved anything to me with your economics argument. I'm still waiting to actually learn something here, like i said before,I'm always happy to be proven wrong.
You keep pointing out off the shelf suspension marketed toward the cheap drifter crowd and comparing them to custom ordered suspension. Why don't you just compare Tokico Illuminas to JGTC spec Toda Fightex?

Quote:
Also i didnt say your Topline Aragosta coilovers were crap, I've heard good things about them. So if you're insulted because i said Japanese crap, read closely. I said MOST, not all.
Actually I am insulted. You say most because your only experience is of that with the budget suspension designed to appeal to the drifter crowd. BTW Topline is from New Zealand..

Quote:
PS: You should stop with the economics classes and take a spelling one instead.
Learn to punctuate and the difference between a proper noun and a noun if you're going to start pointing out grammatical errors.

I highlighted a few of your errors and that's not even pointing out your lack of quotation marks and over use of commas when you should have used a semi colon.
