pinkarrowsnow · 07-12-2007, 05:16 PM

I have powered by MAX i love them so far, cool company great service but they are very stiff. For daily I run them all the way soft.

DragonUSMC · 07-12-2007, 05:20 PM

Stance... Thats all i'll ever use.

240sx_sr20det · 07-12-2007, 05:28 PM

I run JIC's and I like them a lot.

umzenki · 07-12-2007, 05:30 PM

STANCE...just do it

LB.Motoring · 07-12-2007, 05:36 PM

Stance or Max.

next time search.

FinalDrive · 07-12-2007, 05:40 PM

zeal if you have deep pockets
i highly recommend them

MomentumGT · 07-12-2007, 05:42 PM

Tein Mono Flex with 12kg/9kg...from my experience they're better than what you've listed as well as quite a few others. No experience with Powered by Max tho' but I'm sure they're good.

SleepySR · 07-12-2007, 06:14 PM

Silk road rm/a8's confortable enough for the street ,dial them in for track use.

***S14DB*** · 07-12-2007, 06:29 PM

Topline Aragosta

khilgers · 07-12-2007, 06:30 PM

sijia10358 · 07-12-2007, 07:49 PM

OptionZero · 07-12-2007, 07:53 PM

my friend 916s14 says Nex coilovers are very good

dorifuto_sluto · 07-12-2007, 07:55 PM

arent those pretty affordable?
i saw a couple sets on (ahhhh) ebay before but i never really heard anything about them..

projectdrifter · 07-12-2007, 08:36 PM

im a fan of tein personally. much rather see a set of ra or ha than flexes. i have type ra on my s14 and they are a bit stiff for dd but u are supposed to sacrifice some comfort for performance. plus it makes the girls boobs bounce lol

rps13drift · 07-12-2007, 09:13 PM

jic flta2! i kind of want to try those max ones when i do replace mine

C. Senor · 07-12-2007, 09:20 PM

stance numero uno.

AznDrftr. · 07-12-2007, 09:24 PM

Havent gotten any, but I'm going with MR Streets.

Bushido · 07-12-2007, 09:39 PM

stance and kts have better wheel clearance than the "budget" coilovers... something to think of...

hippo_chips · 07-12-2007, 09:55 PM

MAX coilovers are stiff. I daily drive my car, and at times it gets rough, but I can handle it. For the price it's a great option as a first coilover, along with Stance and KTS. It's better than buying Megan or other cheap coilovers, cause these are backed and sold by people who use them. The guys at MAX are cool too. These are probably the beefiest coilovers I've ever seen, very well constructed. Next time I'll save money for Zeal.
