o, ad get a pic up here, its will help, start your own thread though and post it on here so we dont wreck this dudes thread anymore then we have with our bulsit. im super eager to want to see these, ive been wanting them but ya know, im worried lol

i think what one of these threads need is a side car video showing how much they bounce and what not, to show if there at least decent enough to not just save another $500 bones

i guess my thread went on a little spurt while i was gone lol

to try and answer everyone questions...

coils still feel like the day i installed them paint is about the same just waiting on the front 5 lug hubs for my new wheels.

if i didnt mention before the slammed pic is with both collars removed and the rear maxed out

to get your wheels to lean in just dial in some camber it will look like pure sex...

the fender gap is about a quarter inch up front and 1/8th out back

my next act of bussiness is to get a in car video and exterior video of some regular driving and then some stuff just to show how the coils handle.

just other stuff that is probably gunna go in soon

cant wait....and hell i might get a pair of these, all i need is Zero body roll and a stiff ride, wth pretty much only that amount of drop(2.5front-1.75rear)probably going to go with kts at spl but keep this thread alive and i might just save 500 bucks and get other stuff for the car

what version are these? type SS /RS/ or???

ps: i have 300zx rear 5 lug hubs for sale!!

[rob912]

honestly they are the best bang for the buck i have rs and the next grade up is being compared to tein so you know they must be pretty good

how much for the hubs?

[1991ls13]

thats awsome to hear, and i saw most going for 150 so i posted them up for 150(obo)plus shipping,im willing to neg the price depending how how crazy the shipping is tooand im thinking on getting the ss tpe cause i dont really know much about tuning the dampening and springs.....is that a bad thing? its already set for street use and track, so im guessing there pretty firm but not rock hard... any advice?

[1991ls13]

i took the godspeed dive and i bought a pair so ill be getting them tomorrow or monday. what size tire are you running?cause i have 18` 9.5 front and back and 275 35 and 255,i think mine will look more slammed then what your is now cause i have bigger tires i think...i didnt know it was safe to take the collars off though.....?and is this camber adjust?

[angrypenguin182]

quick question how many miles have you put on these so far?and I'm assuming you installed them yourself?

[rob912]

as of now just about 5000 miles on them and they still feel as good as new and yes i installed them myself

[pauliedrft]

im thinking of rocking these also if everybody is anti Chinese and knock off this and that you should read the MADE IN stickers on all the products you buy daily god speed made a bad name for them selves in the beginning but just like anyone fabricating stuff you start some where ,Sorry to OP i had to put my 2 cents in .

[OM3GA]

The US is made in China.

[pauliedrft]

agreed^^^ you work for yuri im guessing ???

[po_bo]

Can't wait to know the final answer, I'm waiting to decide if i should ditch my Eibach sport line/Tokico HP combo (included when i bought my car) and go for Goodspeed coilovers or just Keep my Eibach spring and switch out the Tokico HP for D-spec.

[extreme]

um any update on those coilovers ? still good ?

[1991ls13]

well have had mine for a few monthsnow and they ride fine. if compared them to say kts, kt are 8/10 and these are 7/10 and megans streets being the same

[rob912]

ill get pics this weekend but they are starting to get a little bouncy but 1 year isnt bad its more than i expected

ill be upgrading to bc coils in the spring.

[rob912]

did not think i would be ending this thread this early but i guess the review and test are over since i blew my left front coil today.



bc coilovers should be ordered next week ill be back to write a final overview later

what you hit?or go over that did it

[rob912]

there is only one legit pothole that i hit that could have done this but that was before christmas so i have no clue how it happened

[pauliedrft]

warranty ?????? and A huge complaint .

[Gabes13]

Cool.Godspeeds are so awesome.

[rob912]

Cool.Godspeeds are so awesome.

....

any way i am still under warranty so they will be replacing this coil free of charge

like i said before they are a good daily coilover but not stiff enough for the track.

if i were u and i was buying my first set of coils i would just save another 300 and go with megan streets or tracks

most likely gunna sell these for 285 with 2 new front coilovers and should have the bc coilovers by spring

i hope everyone got the info they needed out of this review feel free to post any ther questions

[pauliedrft]

I agree i was going to buy a set but i have decided to go with pdm And the fact that the shock its self is replaceable and im going to order the street springs so dd is street springs , track will be the stiffer ones .

[Nonsense]

Ill buy the fronts for $150 shipped.Email me back. [email protected]
