You clearly do not know your ass from a hole in the ground. I put coils on my car to enchance the ride... Enchance is pretty open to interpretation, with that being said I enchanced the responsiveness and ride quality of my 240. I was running on blown KYB's, so I did enchance the ride.

Clearly, you are a fanboy... Ballin' on a budget, which is cool with me... Just dont try and act like you know what you are talking about, when clearly you dont. Not everybody buys coilovers to lower their rideheight... imagine that. Do you even know what you are adjusting and how it will affect the car when you are twisting knobs and loosening bolts?

What high quality coilovers have you driven on, let alone rode in to have the knowledge to say your Isis coilovers ride much better than high quality ones? This is where I stopped reading your post because to say Isis will ride better than high quality (not sure what you mean by that but I will assume you mean KW, Moton, Penske, Ohlins, etc.).

Running high quality coilovers will enchance the quality of your ride on the street and track versus running Isis. They have better valving, and better quality springs, simple as that.

Please, just stop talking before you make yourself look any more like a jackass.

haha... i have " minions "

i love how you posted a pic of jean luc picard..... people nowadays actually remember that show?


seriously, who is this guy? and where did that other dude with 3 posts come from? i dunno about the rest here, but i dont even bother reading half the shit they write. i just skim through the first paragraph. once i find something worth replying to, i tell you to suck my dick and call you a cheap broke idiot (not always in that order)

i cant understand why or how anyone would take any of this shit seriously, you sound like a kid in high school whos getting all bent out of shape for nothing.


you are such a fucking TOOL

[dizzariot]

I love this forum. My S13 came with an ISIS FMIC and ISIS Intake Kit. No problems, but they won't be on the car long enough to find out what degree of quality they are.

There's a fine line between:

A.) Buying parts that are 'name brand' because they're popular and Import Tuner has their names stamped all over the cover...and/or because you used it on your S0oP3R SiKK KAr on NeEd FoR SpEeD UnDeRgRoUnd.

...and...

B.) Buying 'name brand' parts because they've been in the game long enough to earn some sort of reputation as QUALITY parts. The majority doesn't lie, and in this economy the majority of us are broke lol. Still, I'd bet the majority is running higher-end shit, just less vocal about it. Moral: SAVE YOUR MONEY AND BUY IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME.

I can guaran-fucking-tee you that my Stance LX+ coilovers ride much smoother and are more comfortable on the street than your shitty mcshit-shit ISIS coilovers. I can also guarantee you that they would perform much better on the track as well.

Honestly I doubt you could tell the difference in both situations. And I have pbm.

Have you had anything else? I've had Megan, Ksport, Tien, Stance and PBM.

Megan was dog crap. Tien, very meh. Ksport was surprisingly super comfy (on an accord and non-dampening adjustable model) Stance and PBM were firm but supportive, kinda like a nice bed lol.

The difference between coilovers is definitely noticeable. At least the difference between quality levels is.

Example, i bundle

Megan/Isis/Ksport/Generic Ebay etc (fanboi nub tier)
Stance/PBM/Fortune (entry tier)
and then you have all the super baller race spec crap like Ohlins.

Arguing between brands within nub or entry tier is just retarded.

Just most people on this board have only had one thing and think it is the best, even if its ISIS lol.

Anybody else anxiously awaiting his knowledge-filled reply?

i wanna beat the fuck out of everyone in this thread


fuck you all, die.

[SuperBlackS14]

Yo, lets take it down a notch here.

I think the OP probably has plenty of answers.

[ma.jomaa]

It all boils down to buying what ever you feel comfortable with, If you feel that there is no point in spending $2000+ on coilovers then by all means don't, nobody is twisting your arm to do it, and if you feel that ISIS or similar brands are shit, then simply don't buy it and stick with what you like, there is no right or wrong in this. People will always have different opinions about everything. Respect other people choices and be a little more civil (but then again this is Zilvia), Simply put To Each His Own.

[dizzariot]

Well I like turtles.

[whyteboi]

Turtles are stupid, rabbits are far superior....

[ManoNegra]

I like both, turtles and rabbits, but only if proper and arduous R&D and quality control measures have been put in place.

where did you get any of that from, i dont understand how you can be so fucking "thorough" with every other aspect of your life except for reading. i believe i started out my post saying "nobody is saying that isis is better than a higher quality coilover" i just admitted that isis isnt a high quality product dipshit. apparently i didnt make it clear before so i will now just so everybody is on the same page (assuming your still reading at this point since apparently you know the entire outcome of a book by reading the first chapter...) ISIS ISNT IDEAL BUT IT WORKS, if you disagree then send isis i fucking letter about it and tell them about how you feel. im not the "fanboy" nor did i say im "ballin on a budget" sure im on a budget but when did i ever say im ballin or doin some crazy street shit that deserves props from some douche bag on zilvia. im out on the track all the time and ive ridden in cars with every brand of coilover you can think of, no fucking shit they are going to be better on track use than isis, i also have tracked my car on isis coils and guess what... i had no issues and oooo im really gonna blow your mind now, they still work shocking i know! just again since clearly the big ballers on zilvia who when they see a chunk of writing this big get all dizzy like and cant figure out what to do so they stop reading my post, hopefully the bigger writing will catch your eye here while i repeat myself: ISIS ISNT IDEAL BUT IT WORKS.
How the fuck is enhance an open interpretation, look it up in a fucking dictionary you stupid fuck, go find the bumpiest road you can find and then drive as fast as you can down it on your down right holy coilovers that are absolutely better than everybody's and tell me that ride is CLEEEEAARRLLY enhanced from stock shit or softer shit for that matter, you have fun with that bro. also in response to this: " Not everybody buys coilovers to lower their rideheight... imagine that. " i thought a lower center of gravity improves handling among many other things but i wouldnt know because "Just dont try and act like you know what you are talking about, when clearly you dont."
GOOD FOR YOU that your coils have better valving and quality springs. ID LOVE TO TRADE YOU COILS, nobody is arguing that you should buy isis over whatever coils you have but im sure ive already lost you by this point so i guess youll never hear that and quote me for some shit i said about you in the beginning right...doucher. how did somebody like you even come to be, and dont you have something better to do with your "amazing" life like go and enjoy your beautiful coilovers, theres an idea GO DRIVE IT instead of telling other people how the stuff they have doesnt compare.

the funniest response of this whole thing is this lololololololol :

Have you had anything else? I've had Megan, Ksport, Tien, Stance and PBM.

Megan was dog crap. Tien, very meh. Ksport was surprisingly super comfy (on an accord and non-dampening adjustable model) Stance and PBM were firm but supportive, kinda like a nice bed lol.

Just most people on this board have only had one thing and think it is the best, even if its ISIS lol.

this dude has spent close to $4000 on different coilovers! hahahahaha this is the reason why people buy isis coils first so that they can put the remaining $3200 into something else hahahah

to all you people that have something to say about how bad everybody elses shit is we all know you have the biggest dick on the internet, yaaaaay for you

[SnakeKack]

All I know is when I'm in Wal-Mart tempted to buy Great Value corn flakes because it looks like it comes with the same stuff as Kellogs brand plus more for less money, I don't give in because I imagine myself eating them and wishing I bought the name brand.

The same shit goes for anything though. I understand the concept behind cheaper products and I think in certain situations it's ok to cheap out like if you had to fix a leaking coolant hose in a gas station and all they had was 7-11 brand coolant to fill it up with to get you by until it can be done the right way. Or when traveling if I had something fail on a car and only thing available was a Duralast replacement part.

And I do agree that when it comes to certain parts you don't HAVE to buy the MOST EXPENSIVE option to get quality. But just do your research first. But just because you find one inexpensive part that has proven good quality doesn't mean all inexpensive parts will be the same. Everyone just SLOW DOWN and RESEARCH, and think about your own piece of mind.

If people research and see that %50 say ISIS/Megan/Godspeed is good and the other %50 says those companies are shit. Then why not go with the %90 that says Greddy/HKS/Tomei/etc work? If it's a part that you DON'T NEED right away to get a car drivable if you depend on it, just take your time and save up for the quality part. Every single time I cheaped out without researching first it always felt like a waste of money afterwards, and I never had the piece of mind.

I think besides all the angry comments and trash talking, all ixfxi and others commenting about this thread are trying to say is why spend less on certain parts on their car that are vital to function, safety, handling, and reliability? Is buying a part because it's half the cost worth possibly leaving you stranded? Or causing an accident out of failure? Or going through the head ache of replacing and time spent every time that part breaks? I know don't want to take those risks.

I though we were talking about the differences in turtles and rabbits?

[Battle Cat]

I install ISIS Parts at a shop I work for. Some of their stuff is great, others are just whatever. I dig the hydro ebrakes/dual tip exhaust setups. Rest of the parts are mostly greymarket stuff

Ive had Tein, Stance, EBay Emusa, PBM and Honestly the difference is pretty slim besides adjustability.

All the shaming and yelling in the world can't convince cheapskates from buying ISIS and Enjuku from peddling it. So just give it up.

Wow you're retarded.

I prefer to buy my own stuff and try it out, so I don't need to rely on the opinions of idiots like you on the internet. Those coils have been on a varity of different s13s over the last 6 or so years, the Ksports were on an accord I had for a daily.

Sorry I actually make some money and can afford to try things out. Also, It's not like I use these coils and just throw them away like an old pair of shoes. I resell them for decent money because I actually work on maintaining the nice things I own.

Just go away already. Please. Seriously.

This is true. The big difference is the support for Stance and PBM and accessability of spare componets. Thats mostly what draws me to those brands.

Do you get your isis parts from 9k?

technically. I got mine from this guy brad. Who bought them from BG. Who ordered them from ISIS.

But 9k sells that stuff too.
