rotation3x · 04-18-2006, 03:43 PM

i was just wondering if anyone has heard of this company sounds like a new one http://www.kbee.jp/english/english.html

TheSquidd · 04-18-2006, 03:53 PM

Aspeclogan. Foo's got a KBee clock.

DrtyRat · 04-18-2006, 08:42 PM

I saw these on ebay 2day and was wondering the same thing....I'm sure they're the same as most entry level coilovers(read:megan racing), but that's just my best guess...I highly doubt you can get them serviced here in the US anyways

rotation3x · 04-18-2006, 08:55 PM

yeah i saw them on ebay i was just curios b/c they make them sound like the best deal ever they say ALL carry full MFG warranty. If you are not 100% Satisfied we will pay for the return shipping and give you a FULL refund

komedy · 04-19-2006, 11:07 PM

kbee is a old company in japan. last time i saw a kbee product or on japanese option video was back in 1994. i cant tell you if its good or not but i have seen that company before.

s13coupedrfter · 04-22-2006, 02:31 AM

I have seen these in person last week and they look pretty dam good. The quality looks alot like the megan coilovers but the kbee camber plates look thicker. The color is pimp yo! They're around 800-900 bucks retail. I was told by the shop I saw them at that they've been available in Japan for quite some time and that they don't leak.

Bobafreak · 08-27-2007, 03:16 PM

i dont think it can be compared to megan lol. nothing can lol. but im going to pick up a set and see how it is.

2iv0 sx · 09-14-2007, 03:45 PM

Since there's already a thread, I'll share.

Front & rear

Front & rear damping adjustments

Front upper pillow mount

Front (top) & rear collars

Included hardware

Quality looks amazing everything is nice and solid.
Have not install them yet, but will try my best to get them in this weekend...

Contact your one and only Logan @ Aspec for purchasing info.

IES13 · 09-14-2007, 04:02 PM

I'll get my KBee coilovers on sometime next week w/pics. And with first impressions.

Thanks goes out to Logan @ Aspec.

**mrmephistopheles** · 09-14-2007, 08:48 PM

You know, I've seen these for the past two years, and they just seemed like the standard chinese knockoff... I guess I was wrong.

hmmmm......... Interestng. I would like to see how they compare to the Stance's. I need to buy some cheap coilovers for daily driving.

chaseSR86 · 09-14-2007, 09:29 PM

looks like stances.

CKAMC · 09-14-2007, 09:50 PM

Can someone weigh them so we can find out if they are just as heavy as stance?

jfc3po · 09-14-2007, 09:50 PM

what are the prices like on these? I desperately need coils...

lflkajfj12123 · 09-14-2007, 10:21 PM

haiku

kbee giggle hee giggle whoo
you just got killed by the flu
k bee pimp ass color

Neejay · 09-14-2007, 11:42 PM

Yeah, definitely keep us updated.

wonkuuzenki · 09-15-2007, 10:25 AM

hmmm. Kbee coilover's are the equivelent to the old cusco's performance wise. I had a set about a year ago, they are excellent quality and never gave me a problem. There are a couple of D-1 Street class cars that run these coilovers aswell.

They weigh in about the same as the Tein Type Flex, so a little less weight then the Stance coils. But the springs the come with the shocks should be switched out. They are to soft and even can be a little bouncy at times. I switched the springs out to some 10k, 12k swift springs and the performance on track was Exceptional.

What are you doing?
You have no haiku kung-fu.
Love, Haiku's Bruce Lee.

burnsauto · 09-15-2007, 11:35 AM

they dont look half bad, and the price is pretty reasonable. the only thing that throws me off a little is the bottom mount on the rears, how it thins out like that. Im sure they work fine, it just throws me off a little bit.

I would write Hiku
And tell you about myself
But i can't write them

ZenkitonS14 · 09-15-2007, 12:06 PM

I already jumped on the swarm!
These feel EXACTLY like stance
They come from the same place anyway
THANKS A LOT ASPEC! They always know whats up wit it!
And for those few people out there on this forum that dont think that a 240 is a 4x4 truck, these go LOOOOW

Heres some pics thanks to TheSquidd

Dousan_PG · 09-15-2007, 12:15 PM

looko like the regular ol coilovers u can buy any brand of

advantage of these: aspec. and logan.
