im gonna buy coilovers and i was wondering how much of a difference is there between like skunk2 coilovers or those coilovers on ebay. is there much of a difference(besides the damn price) or is it basiclly the same shit.

 

ide run Ground Controls.......... If you buy those ebay ones you will regret it down the road or right when you put them on.. Especialy if you could compare them side by side.

The ground controls will ride nicer, you will like thme better in the corners, as well as the ground controls DO NO SAG...

I made the mistake of going cheap on my suspension once... since then im just running ground controls and Kyb agx and lovin it.

 

You can't just say Ebay coilovers...there are a variety for sale on that damned thing. Regardless, stick to known brands and you'll be fine. Skunk2 are ok but tend to run some pretty aggressive spring rates. GC are great IMHO since you can customize your rates, height, diameter, etc. I'd also look at picking up a set of new shocks as your stock shocks will probably not be able to handle the increased rates for very long. At the very least they'll lead to a bouncy ride. Since doing it right requires a shock upgrade you might also want to consider a full threaded body solution such as Tien, Zeal, H&R, etc.

Also, why go with coilovers? Are you going to corner weight the car? Do you need the adjustability? If not, just go with a set of sport springs from Eibach or H&R. It'll be cheaper.

 

yeah springs might be cheaper but when u drive around from city to city the road changes and u might be fucked if ur car is too low.

and if u dont like how low your car is your screwed with springs

 

i had cheap springs before i got skunk2 coilovers and i could tel they made a BIG difference. did you want them for auto X or just street application?

 

i gto drop zone coil overs if anyone is ineterested and neuspeed spsrings yellow...babivietboi20

 

Don't try to be cheap about things. Do them right the 1st time. My Friend bought coilovers off of ebay and he had to replace his shocks and Camber kit a week after he put them on. Get Ground Control. Best money can buy.

 

Ide suggest replacing shocks as well really will help. Get adjustale ones it makes all the difference being able to change.

I like the ocil overs because you can change it when you want without getting new springs.... you pick the ride height other way aroud your stuck with what ever you get.
