I have these and they're great. Absolutely best bang for your buck with 32 way adjustable dampening and both ride height adjustment and spring height adjustment so u can lower your car and tighten up the spring perch so you don't have any unsprung weight. Which means you won't bounce all over the road when you hit a bump. Also Intense will let you pick which springs you want. For example 5kg, 7kg, etc.

Also forgot to mention its pillowball ends No dumb bushings. Also the upper pillowball mount allows for camber adjustment.

And Its Free shipping like the other 2 you posted as well as cheaper total price for similar product. Unless you don't like orange.

out of the 2 you chose, megans definitely win, I've heard really bad reviews on D2's.the megans are ok, and really decent for their price.talk to my buddy Jxn (thats his username), he can get you a really good deal on megans shipped to your door.

do you call everyone an idiot simply for the sake of self fulfillment?

I wonder what people think of you in real life if you're this much of an ******* online

if i cared what you though, i would have asked you directlyor generally

however i dontand the fact is, 80% of yall are cheap *** peopleyou dont save up for one of the MOST IMPORTANT modifications of your car, but instead cheap out on half *** coilovers because...it was a good deal.

when it wasnt a good deal to begin with, they are just cheap as the dirt in your ear.

thats my problem not that people individually are stupid, but as a whole, and if affects the 240 world .....well nico.

I agree. I am not cheap. I went for the Ksport soley because of color and function. It gets done what I want done. Why pay more for the same thing. I also went with the S15 SR20det because I wanted 6 speed VVT and T28.Alot of people say the transmission is weak, but I haven't seen proof. I have seen a few S15 6spd swaps out there on the magazines with 500+ horses. Anyways that's beside the point.

The guy that also bought Ksport said because of price. He lucked up that it's also a quality product.

Alot of times when you buy an expensive product all you're doing is just buying a name. What you should be doing is buying parts from those no name shops that run those 1200 hp race cars at the track everyday.

*walks back out to the garage and crouches beside the S15 SR20DET on the pallet*

240sx world is not affected by people being cheap but rather people like yourself being *** holes for no apparent reason. If you hate everybody then the problem is probably you, not others.

Isn't it also contradictory that you call this coilover cheap while praising some ****ty poweredbymax coilovers?

People who are 16 years old and 40 years old are sharing the same community, obviously the younger crowd doesn't have the financial liberty a the latter but that is no reason to call them cheap.

Lastly, if you believe that everyone here is distasteful to you then perhaps the best solution is for you to go back to z ilvia. Obviously nico crowd isn't "baller" like them.

I thought you're saving up because you're not cheap? Why else would mr baller here like yourself meddling with some crappy ksport?

I just can't take your words for knowledge if you don't have any credibility. Yes, I'm sorry, you were too busy being an *** to make any logical or grammatical sense. You are full of yourself with nothing to show, nobody can take someone like you seriously; of course, that matters letter because you're baller.

roflyou guys are bunch of bafoons.

Ksports suck.PERIOD.

They are horrible.PERIOD.NO BUTS, IFS, WHYS.

I've had them myself as well.out of the four different setups i've had so far, Ksports sucked the most.

Utter **** dampening, horribly rusting components.. in GEORGIA weather, which caused the coilovers to not even budge adjust anymore.

If you want to get by just driving around, 'lowered', by all means, go for ksport. its cheap, it does what the gen pop. wants it to do, and again, its cheap.

anyways.. saving is the key..money management is key..not just with a hobby, but with the rest of your life.

Loveless and Yokota, KNOCK THAT CRAP OFF.

Grant does have the knowledge, since he has used some/many of these products ion the past. His demeanor may not be sweet, but he knows his s**t.
