shady......what brand?

SteviGX · February 9th, 2009, 11:00 PM

Idk about that man, they look sketchy...Considering most reputable kits are anywhere around 150$ without springs 50 with springs seems iffy to me

C MY 4D · February 9th, 2009, 11:02 PM

That is a ghetto looking kit... If you want to be cheap just cut the spring.

Scott2001GT · February 9th, 2009, 11:03 PM

scam for sure

SteviGX · February 9th, 2009, 11:05 PM

Idk about scam, just some cheap ass parts that will prolly screw more shit up that help...Suspension really isn't something to skimp on man, fork the money for a quality kit

Well its complete crap that isn't safe. First the the spring mounts look like shit and they don't have the notches for the struts. The springs, they don't list the length or spring rate. Plus you need caster camber plates. The stock plates can not take the stress of coil overs.
These are real coil over spring mounts.

That's only the front end.

Thanks for your opinions, i will definitly not get these.. The thing with my car is one side in the rear is lowered in a sense that the previous owner used a heat torch or something to compress the springs and there is less space between the coils.. the other side is sitting stock height (i dont know why he didnt lower both sides), and this looks really weird..

C MY 4D · February 9th, 2009, 11:48 PM

Just spend the money and buy a nice set of springs. Don't half ass it. That's what go the car in its current condition.
