| surprisingly good. i thought $450 coilovers were gonna be garbage, i bought them just so i could have my car lowered for now. Cornering and driving straight is good, defiantly stiffer in the corners and they give me alot more control too. | |

| That's cool. The more you drive it, the more you adapt to the "garbage" and your style of driving will work around it, making it work for you. I'm glad you're able to enjoy it. I don't think I'll ever purchase a $2,000+ coilover system, simply because I don't need it. If I was into track competition like some guys here, then it would be a different story. Can't wait to see more from you! | |

| are you missing the fact that "garbage" coilovers take about a year to fail? spend 1500 and get some KW or similar coilovers that have a lifetime warranty. not only will you never have problems with them, but you are supporting people who actually do research and give something to the community. not just pumping out cheap shit from a sweat shop.
i bought a car with 1 year old k sport coilovers and two of the shocks were junk already.
ive had koni's that have lasted over ten years. my jic magics are over 5 years old now. its just not worth it to me. | |

| yea but, that's probably from competitive use though, isn't it? Like he said, they're temporary anyway, so I'm pretty sure he'll "upgrade" when the time comes. so calm down, geez. | |
