At least they look half-way decent. These are for my drag sentra, but they didn't send the extra springs. Busted-*** group buy!

K-Sport coilovers from the NICO group buy!

Look at the thread in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum. Then look at the construction. They look like crap. Sure, folks are gonna say that they are great bacause most of em are comming from 100k mile blown shocks and sagging springs. My issue with them is the longevity of them. I went and got a brand that I trust (Nismo) when I made my purchase. I am curious to see how long they last. At least spend your hard earned cash on a low level coilover like Tein HE/HA/SS (which are overpriced IMHO for what you get) that has a decent/good reputation.

Start reading here. No clicks when you make them harder, no idea what the valving is for the shocks (to see how hard to set them to match them to the springs), don't like to adjust, poor top mount construction (mounting bolt HITS the coil!!!!!). They are just crap really. My KYB/Nismo coilovers are non adjustible (but who needs adjustment when PROPERLY matched?!?!) and they give just the right drop so as not to bottom the car out on bumps (ie in the real world) but also lower the center of gravity.
Gotta think suspension tuning through before you just buy some pretty parts. Dee is all good b/c he needs the adjustment to fine tune his launches, not so he can carve some twisties. Those of us w/ S chassis cars (who tend to care about handling more than straight line) need a little more from our springs/shocks....But that is just my $.02.....
