Cxracing coilovers. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Jonathong · 05-31-2011, 11:51 PM

Anyone have any experience with em? How do they ride? I'm asking because a friend of mine recently crashed his s14 before his coils came in which are cxracing ones. He's willing to sell it to me for 300 and my stock springs and struts. Which are on my s14 right now. The specs on the cxracing coils are 32 way damper and 12kg in the front and 10kg in the rear for the spring rate. They lower the car up to 4 inches. Is this a decent deal for what I'm paying?

creyes13491 · 06-01-2011, 12:21 AM

no camber adjustments for the front?

SLiDe_WaYz · 06-01-2011, 12:30 AM

Don't buy that plastic trash.

romero8287 · 06-01-2011, 12:33 AM

dude, for a little more , u can get some fortune auto coilovers...

jamg · 06-01-2011, 12:34 AM

whatever you do, get taiwan made coilovers.

not china made.

iamtheyi · 06-01-2011, 12:34 AM

Don't buy used coilovers. Bad idea. Especially with Cxracing... No camber plates up front which should be a deal breaker. If not, 12/10 starts messing suspension up because of how stiff it is if you're daily driving this thing.

they are brand new still in box. but yea i guess your right they do seem too stiff for daily driving.

matts13vert · 06-01-2011, 12:36 AM

Friend of mine has them on his s13. They are decent coils worth the 300 bucks. fully slammed, flipped mount, and one collar removed the car sits LOW. Rides stiff but not bouncy. No camber plate? big whoop... at his height the camber is still pretty straight.

PoorMans180SX · 06-01-2011, 05:55 AM

They're garbage like everything else from CXracing. Save your money and buy something else. Don't be a cheapskate.

WanganNastyMachine · 06-01-2011, 06:59 AM

For $300 its not bad deal at all, but they are some shitty coilovers man.

My buddies CX Racing manifold looks like it was JB Welded together and all the flux was hammered down really fast. Hell, even the metal is super soft.

I cant even imagine buying coilovers from them.

Save and get some Fortune Auto/Stance/HSD Coilovers in the $1,000 price range. Other people chime in with your .02 if my information is not correct.

OBEEWON · 06-01-2011, 07:39 AM

I'm going to make some wood coilovers.

actually that would be so cool. Im so smart.

redline racer510 · 06-01-2011, 08:03 AM

NOOOOOOOOOOO MAARRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAA GETTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTOOOOOO DAAAAAAAA CHOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAa

DONT DO IT WASTE OF MONEY EVEN IF THEY ARE 100 BUCKS

JDM Sil4ty · 06-01-2011, 08:14 AM

yea the dudes ripping you off... and you call him a FRIEND?

WOW

clay9110 · 06-01-2011, 08:27 AM

LOL dude just buy them its 300 bucks who seriously gives a fuck. Do u want to ride on stock suspension or do u want some coils? Just ask ur self that not zilvia

titangts · 06-01-2011, 08:32 AM

dont listen to these douche bags bro.. just get them. if they don't leak, they will be just fine.

my buddy's ENTIRE s13 hatch is a completely build using all EMUSA (ebay) parts. his coilovers, his entire turbo kit, his exhaust. its a ka-t making 290whp on 10psi using a hx35. besides the injectors, turbo and tune, everything else is all EMUSA which are the cheapest ebay parts you can buy..

and his car is fucking badass bro. get those coilovers.

vas570sx · 06-01-2011, 08:56 AM

Wow, you guys obviously don't read. If these coils are $300, brand new from your friend, then go for it.

My s14 sits on the ground and has 0 camber without camber plates up front. If you are dailying the car, this is fine. if you plan on drifting, then you need some negative camber up front. I'm getting camber plates today but they aren't necessary for daily driving.

Worst case scenario, you buy them, put them on for a month, and if you don't like them, you sell them for the same price (since you're getting a good deal).

I say go for it.

dudermagee · 06-01-2011, 09:00 AM

so many damn cheap ricers these days, don't get the coils
stay stock or get quality PBM, Fortune, or Stance
jesus even those aren't expensive any more

OBEEWON · 06-01-2011, 09:17 AM

Punch your friend in his goiter.

Or pop a pimple in his mouth.

Then teach him how to Duggy.

PoorMans180SX · 06-01-2011, 09:41 AM

Lowering your car makes it cool.

Just cut your springs dude. It's free, and I bet the performance difference is negligible compared to these coils.

Seriously though, do you want to listen to the seasoned veterans of Zilvia, who actually know what they're doing/talking about, or these kids that bought their cars 6 months ago, threw them together with eBay parts, and now claim they're awesome?

These are JUNK from a JUNK COMPANY. Why are people so stupid?

I wouldn't put these on my car if someone gave them to me.

demonspeed · 06-01-2011, 09:45 AM

If you wanna be cheap, might as well buy some isis or godspeed coils for a little more. At least they have reviews...

Csomme · 06-01-2011, 09:48 AM

DONT DO IT! what the hell? And how many times has this topic been gone over.

It fucking sucks to see absolutely no one performance oriented anymore.

Or he could just save his money? It's not hard, it just takes time. Calm yourself down there spiffy.
