  Zeal Function B6 coilovers; Yay or Nay? 2:06 PM 7/9/2008

so i am about to buy these seemingly amazing coils from "pancho y onions" here on nico(thread: http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/349885 ). he says the spring rates are F 8kg R 7kg. are these coils any good, in particular for drifting but also daily driving with some drag and maybe even a little grip racing in the mix? i know those spring rates should be pretty comfortable for a DD as coilovers go and should be ok for drifting(maybe it bit high in the back though).

what do you guys think?

Zeal is one of the good quality coilovers right below Ohlin & Aragosta. I say YES.

yeah, definitely my train of thought. the idea of having zeal's seems nearly overwhelming lol. used and probably at least a few years old(not sure when they stopped making the B6's) but for 800 plus shipping i think it's well worth it.

EDIT: what exactly is the lifetime of coils? can they be rebuilt pretty much infinitely? just rebuild them when they need it and replace the dust boots and mount bushings when needed and they'll keep performing? (my first set of coils)
