Drop zone coilovers are the best you can buy for the money. Believe it or not it is acually superior in everyway to true coilovers such as JIC FLT A2 or Tanabe DD's. Be sure to use the drop zone coilovers with your oem shocks for optimal handling too. Also when you buy them set it to the lowest setting possible for getting the best hadling possible and least body roll.

Hahah, quit screwing with him man.

dam i thought i had it right. I shoulda told him to cut his stock springs on his stock shocks so his car will be dumped.

I've always thought dropzone springs were very cheap. Personally, I am going to go with eibach SL w/ AGX.

I have never used them before, but from what i have heard, they have very soft springs, and the dampening rate isn't that great. you are better off just getting stiffer shocks like some koni's or aomething like that. but then again i could be wrong.

If you don't want my stock springs, I can sell you some BRAND NEW Tanabe Super Down Precedeo springs. Of course they will cost more than the dropzones, but the ride and drop is nicer (BadMoJo has them).
