Why do you say that?

[Kershaw]

because turbo stage 3.7

if you already know what to buy, you'll buy something else. if you dont, you wont ever notice the difference and for the money they're definitely better than the (probably) blown shocks you've got.

They are floaty because I had this kit on a car of mine. pile of shit because the adjusters seize easily, the spring rates are all wrong, the rear doesn't lower as much as the front, the shocks are worse quality than the same age stock ones, and it's badly put together.

This kit is 1 step up from cutting your springs.

So if you know better, you'll buy better. If you're dumb, at least it'll be better than blown stock? :roll:

waaattt!!!! people still buying shit jom coilover??

So many bad reviews about these. I've had mine installed for about 3k now. My prior setup was stock, these are a huge improvement over stock IMO. Of course they are not competing with a 1200 dollar GC setup, but they have been holding up fine. I even autox'd them and they were much much more confidence inspiring than stock. I just wish the rear was a little stiffer.

I have had mine on for a good bit (going on close to a year). I recently had to raise them to fit 16's on my car and they seem to be holding up.


To all the people that want to get these, I really suggest cutting the spring perches and welding a bead or something to hold it up. When I was raising my car, it turned into a mess because I couldn't get the adjuster tool to unlock the lower adjuster. I eventually got it by using other methods, but it chewed up the notches.

Can you re-explain that please? I just ordered some.

Cut the spring perch and weld a nice bead around where it was cut off and that is where the sleeve will rest. That way if you want to lower or raise the car, you won't have that spring perch in the way. Essentially, it is for easier access.

Ahhh I see, thanks for the tip!

[greanthumb]

ive had mine on the dd for 8-9 months. me likee. couldnt imagine getting better for the $$. with that said....not the best on the market by far. who ever said they were tho??

[greanthumb]

if i had to complain... id only say that they are a tad soft in the rear.

[Dj Buttchug]

bumping this because apparently my install is wrong... who can confirm this???? I cant see how the sleeves can sit any lower on the strut. As you can see the stock spring perch has been removed but my thread sleeve is sitting about an inch above it.??? wtf?

[CHIF8008]

butt chug: that is how they are to sit(you did it right)- no real need to remove spring perch except for better acceptability to the adjusters. the kit was designed to be used on the car without any modification AKA cutting off the spring perch. that way you could go back to regular coils if you wanted.

BUT...To get the front lowlow you cut off the top of the adjuster so that it is a hollow tube that slides over the strut tube and rests on the original spring perch. this method will get the front very low.
