Dont be a fucking tightwad. If you are going to be, dont come on here and ask which piece of shit knockoff product you should buy...


Both coilovers suck, both coilovers are cheaply made. If your trying to be anything more than a hipster, id suggest saving your money and buying a set of decent quality coilovers. Ie. Fortune Auto, PBM, Stance, etc. Hell even buying a set of used Cuscos, JIC, or HKS's would be worlds better than buying Isis or Godspeed products.

Tein is good stuff too. Put it this way, Chances are, if you spend less then $700 on new coilovers, then you are most likely buying knockoff shit that I wouldnt trust to be a paper weight.

Your asking about godspeed and isis coils but you say you won't buy a shitty product?

They both aren't good. I've never owned or driven on either one, but I've read all kinds of posts on here complaining about the coils blowing really fast.

Yea they are super super cheap, but they won't last. If your cool with them not lasting, then go ahead.

Some people act like godspeed coils are gods gift to earth, and some act like they're the worst thing in the world, It seems like you never know what you'll get with those.

My take on it is, there's a reason why they're so much cheaper than other coils. They're not the same quality. If your ok with that then it's your choice.



Like everyone else is telling you, save up a couple more weeks, and buy some better coils, and save yourself the hassle. You'll be a lot happier in the end.

I don't think that's the same Godspeed. A buddy of mine had those wheels. I don't know how I feel about them.

And save up another paycheck and buy some decent coils. I really don't understand how you people can't bring yourself to wait 2 extra weeks.

2 things:
- Missile Car
- Sponsor

I'll bet anything that Tuerck wouldn't run these parts on his competition car.

Do the parts work? Yes
Do they work well? No
I wouldn't put these parts on my car if I drive it on the road. That's just me.

Then again, I'm not a broke asshole.

Who cares what we feel man it's YOUR car you decide. What are you going to be doing with it? If it's just DD then do research as to what the best setup would be. Always keep in mind a car build can only end with the car being 2of the following 3
-Cheap
-Reliable
Fast

It's a $1000 car, just keep that in the back of your head while you buy parts for it.

Thats got to be one of the dumbest theories ive ever seen.

Just because its a $1000 car, means you shouldnt put quality parts on it?
Safety=Quality parts= $$$ Simple as that

Just wanted to say, those Godspeed wheels are just rebranded TSW Thruxton wheels, which are likely just rebranded something else.
