Hey, is anyone running these on their s14? I'm looking for a good coilover setup for my suspension on the kouki. I came across these on the Enjuku sie, and they're right down the street from me, usually the prices at the shop are cheaper than online, or so I've noticed. But the price says $849.99, 50 cheaper than the MR coilovers. Just looking for some reviews if anyone knows anything about how good of a coilover they are. I'm a fan of tanabe and all, plus they're not too too high priced, as im on a budget. let me know! thanks.

cheap junk. single height adjustable, no upper mounts (re use rubber mounts, obviously no camber adjustability), non inverted dampers, soft springs. the fact that they are cheaper than MEGAN RACING (****ing cheapest of the cheap ****) should tell you that they are no good.

i guess they would be good if you just want to drive around town and stuff. i wouldnt waste my time for somthing that is going to have a lot of hard driving on it.

yeah im not planning on running my car that hard anyways. it's a daily driver, and once the suspension and wheels, and turbo are done im planning on just entering in a few drift practices over at orlando speed world, which is like once a month, if i do every one. (doubtful) other than those it's mostly a daily driver. i was going to be doing an KYB AGX with eibach spring/shock combo but im gonna wanna lower the car a bit more so im planning on hitting up some coilovers...

if you just want to lower your car to make it look better and daily around, should work fine. will ride smoother than megans. more adjustability than shock/spring as well. prob will last longer too.
