It's hard to sift through the bullshit of so many people that are just happy to get their first set of coilovers. I have myself never bought coils but know it's easy to give a good review just on looks and the fact you're excited to finally start modding the car that the review is not useful. I compare it to someone who got their first blowjob. Yeah it's awesome you got a blowjob but how do you know the chick was even good. Even a meh blowjob feels good but you have little or nothing to compare to. Sorry for the reference but I see so many coilover reviews that fit this description. I just don't want to buy $800 coils only to eventually want $1500 coils a year later when the shit ones blow. But at the same te I bought the car for $700 and $1200 coils will double what I got into it already.
I track my S13, not with a"drift slut yo" attitude, and i own it since 2006. I have already bought worse coilovers than FAs. Also, if you actually happened to read my post, i gave you a clear reference from tein to compare.

These are also facts :
seller does not provide any ACTUAL damping, rebound and spring rate information. He does not know what a dampener is. It uses twin tube, which is a cheap and quite not effective design, so not something you would use as a selling point, unless you don't know what it means.

Basically, the seller does not know what he is selling, which means it is a generic white brand crap coilover.

So yeah, i somewhat know what i am talking about. These are crap. For 700$, you get crap, and thats it, no matter how much you want to believe the opposite. It does not matter that there is a striked high price either next to it. It is cheap crap, because at that price tag you never get quality.

Same goes for your cheap car. You got it cheap, and it is a piece of junk that you are going to spend thousands on it to make it work correctly. Reality is harsh, eh ?

Of course if all you care is street credz and how low the car can get - you already shown that you could go pretty low when someone does not answer what you wanted to hear, no doubt you want the car at the same ride height - then by all mean, buy some cheap crap suspension, and please proceed to remove yourself from the gene pool without taking someone with you.
