Yep.
They're amazing coilovers, especially for the performance/price ratio. My friend has them on his MK3 Supra and they're amazing. Take note, they're very stiff. I'm guessing they'll be in the $800-$900 range. -Matt |

yes, they are stiff. The adjustment does help a little though. I just like fact that you can set the ride height as you like. I don't have that nasty wheel gap anymore. You can check it out in my profile.

You can check it out in my profile. The adjustments for both stiffness and height are nice. How much did you pay for yours? -Matt |

Megan is going big now? They used to be mediocre before. Just went to their site. Did not see any. Where did you find them?

Their price won't be $1050, I'll guarantee that much.
Look online once they become available later in July and you'll see prices in the $800-$900 range. -Matt |

I wonder the ride comfort. Looks low, looks good.

If their street coilovers are the same then the spring rates are 8K front 10K rear. I just installed these last night on my friend's WRX wagon. The ride is AMAZING! I'm purchasing a set when I can. I set the dampers to 17 and it was perfect for DD.

I set the dampers to 17 and it was perfect for DD. spring rates will differ among the type of vehicle its going into depending on the weight, weight distribution, and amount of leverage the suspension components put on the spring. Your friends wrx is heavier and thus requires a different spring rate then our cars. This post has been edited by urbandork: Jun 26, 2008 - 12:58 PM |
