I found this on ebay as I'm sure many other people have also. It's a set of coilovers for the 240. Just wanting some feed back to anyone who has heard of them. Here's the link....

Oh yes ebay "coilovers." If I remember correctly the only decent ebay "coilovers" are the drop zones. Just look the the price - 26 bucks plus freight. You can't even get a set of lowering springs for that much. I personally do not consider those coilovers. Just remember you get what you pay for.

Well since you want some opinions, heres mine. Unless you plan on drifting or doing SCCA autocross you don't need coilovers. A nice set of struts and springs will be more than enough for daily driving/smokin Hondas. I desperatly wanted a JIC setup but the $1300+ isn't practical. I wound up getting a Nismo strut/spring combo (non-adjustable) for around $650 which is what you will pay for a decent strut/lowering spring set up.

Just a thought!

I have a friend with an accord that we just put these on about a week ago. Rides a little rough on stock struts. Just to see how long they will last....

They are so da mn cheap it's just about worth trying them out. Since I can do the install myself, I may go ahead and give them a shot Until I can afford a good setup.

you can just go ahead and send me $25 if its not that much. trust me, a couple years ago i bought some ebay coilovers and have regretted it ever since. i was young and dumb and bought some $60 coilovers and some nice tokico blues. springs rode so rough it blew out my struts after less than a year. seriously, any coilover, thats not a "TRUE" coilover IS GOING TO BE COMPLETE ****

So what are you guy thinkin that are saying no to this? Pro-kits and some KYB GR2 struts until I can afford real coilovers? Thats what I was thinking about doing in the first place anyway.

ive got pro kits for sale.

but if i were you, if youre just planning on buying coilovers later, just stick it out with the stockers and save your money, but if you insist, buy my pro kits.
