I've been trying to decide what coilovers I wanted to buy for months. Today I went to order my DD's and the shop told me they are discontinued and are being replaced by the new sustec seven's but those won't be out until next year :hammer: . I finally have the time to work on my car but all my plans are going up in smoke... I can either sit on my ass and wait until the seven's come out while missing plenty of track time or buy another set of coilovers. Zeal is probably too expensive, JIC's aren't that great when you drive them hard (I have had multiple friends with JIC's and after continuous track time they started to fall apart). Kei office is expensive for the good models and they also recomend that you weld the chassis to make it stiffer which I don't want to do. I've driven on megans and they suck compared to dd's so mr/d2/k-sport are out of the question. If you have any suggestions on what I should get (let me know if zeals are worth the extra money) let me know.
