ISIS, Godspeed, Megan, Circuit Sports, etc. is all the same shit, made at the same place over in China/Korea.
I wish someone would paint all of those brands the same color, and do a comparison for some of these kids in here. If you're going to buy any of that junk, might as well buy the cheapest one you can. Junk is junk. |

Thanks to ifxi and ManoNegra and others who talked sense into me, I bought SPL. But I was torn such a new one on here, I wrote to DSport and asked their opinion... Well, the gist of what they said, in deference to all the SIM mags, was: "Buying a quality component is easy, because you can assume that the low volume/high cost manufacturers, put that extra time and money towards engineering and quality."

Exactly,
So whats the problem with buying ISIS, megan ect. suspension parts if the car isn't some mad tyte jdm drift race car. IMO buy what suits your cars needs. No point in buying 2k coilovers if you car will never or rarely see a track.. |

2k coilovers (or anything over a grand pretty much) ride a whole lot better than isis, godspeed, ebay, etc. coilovers. Even if your hard parking wouldnt you rather have a good ride instead of a stiff bumpy ride with blown shocks after two months of driving?

I have really tried hard in the last year or so to stay out of these silly threads. Enjuku Racing sells every brand of every part out there. However the market demands an inexpensive product that someone is willing to stand behind. For any of you that had an issue with an ISIS product, call the dealer you got it from and i am sure they will take care of you. Its really easy!!! I can promise it is not that easy with some of your big name Japanese brands when it comes to warranties. ( I know i deal with them every day). and news flash: EVERY BRAND HAS WARRANTY ISSUES!!!! In my opinion it comes down to what companies are willing to take care of their customers and how easily.
As for the hard parking comment: ![]() This car ran ISIS arms and ISIS coilovers in Formula D. Went 2 more one more times with Chris Forsberg, hit numerous walls, and no failures. They work, hands down! Are they they most expensive ones out there?... not by a long shot. but they work! (If you want an expensive brand, please call me, I will sell it to you in a heart beat) You guys should really give up on these type of threads. They all start and end the same. People will buy what they want to buy. Come buy it all from me!!! I sell it all !! If you ever have an issue with Enjuku Racing please call me directly so I can get you taken care of. sincerely Ken Harrison

More often times than not, I've seen my friends/acquaintances buy ISIS arms and have a defect or just look like little craftsmanship went it compared to big name brand stuff. The reason why they decide not call is because although the service is nice, you'd be surprised what kind of shit gets sent back to you. With that said, they take it upon themselves to fix the shitty welds and replace the bearings with better quality bearings. People argue that quality is the best way to go because those companies send out products that take time/work/quality to make. More than anything the price reflects the kind of parts/work that go into it. But like Ken said, it all boils down to people buying what they want to buy. However, that doesn't mean you aren't going to get shit from people using reputable parts. |

I used to HATE going to my friend house when I was a lot younger because his mom would stock the fridge with that cheap stuff that tasted terrible.
Whenever my friend would complain, she always said, that "it all tastes the same"... I always told him that she didn't have any taste buds... |

I run ISIS arm package on my car and haven't had any problems. Just had a drift event yesterday, went off track and ate the inside of an apex and had no problems, no damages.
If you want adjustable arms and don't have/want to spend money on expensive brands, go to Enjuku and get them if not, buy something else. |

And that works both ways right? If someone with cheaper parts beats you they can give you shit about having accomplished more with less?

ive had the same megan exhaust system and coilovers installed since 2006. I heard there is a difference in megan then and megan now, however i must say its a hit or miss, i mean every company has a batch of parts that was made on friday or monday. a good friend of mine has been throught 3 2871's. went to a no name brand 20g, 360 rwhp later, he hasnt looked back since. I think its alwasy gonna be luck of the draw. some times you win, and well some times you get

Main point is if all the noobs and bandwagon junkies want to rock cheaper parts let them. I stop caring and trying to advise the kids cause its just a waste of time. They never learn until its too late when they are so far in the hole paying for repairs from cheap China knock-offs.
Food for thought, while all you people complain about prices for QUALITY parts and then go around and get mad that there are no more good companies offering QUALITY parts let alone supporting that platform, you guys buy the CHEAP China knock off stuff. Then you say its cheaper, it works so why buy the good stuff? If it wasn't for the BIG NAME brand companies developing (spending $$ on R&D) NEW and QUALITY parts what are you left with? Answer... ALL YOU GET IS POORLY made sub-quality parts. Most people won't care since its just the KOOL thing to do right now to impress their friends. Why is it the ENTIRE Honda community sucks? Its all those cheap ass cry babies that destroyed their own scene by supporting all that junk. |

Needed a quick fix for my rear alignment, couldn't justfity paying $200 per pair for SPL arms, my car has 200k+ miles on it, is driven a few times a week, nabbed some Isis rear arms to fix the mad toe in and camber and called it a day, they've been on the car over two years and haven't had the first problem out of them yet.
