ebay special coilovers installed
So I bought the really cheapo ebay coilovers and installed them yesterday. They aren't too bad, they just bounce around alot, which is what I was expecting since they are coilovers. As far as cornering goes, they're fantastic as long as the corner doesn't have too many bumps. And if I hit a big bump too fast, I bottom out. My advice is, don't get coilovers especially not the cheap ones off of ebay. Go with the high quality springs.

Glad to see someone stepped up and took a chance.
Well, at least we all know that they are crap.

I was looking at them when I first got my car, but the reason I didn't get them is because if you look at any of the name brand coil overs the price was about $700-$900, so that was a good indicator to me that $40.00 coil overs were going to be crap. But I am glad that you are honest and let us know that they are crap, most people wouldn't have admitted that masde a mistake on buying them. And your imput will now steer people away from your mistake. And that is what this fourm is for.

i think if you had some dampers they would be great.
what would the difference of drop zone and eibach ground control coils be? they both bounce.... i dont think drop zone is all that bad.. |

i have the nopi brand ones on my ZX2 and there matched with tokico s/r shocks wich are like tokico blues but stiffer,,,
this was a far better setup than the eibach/tokico combo. the Nopi brand is a exact replica of ground control. they evn have the spring rates on the spring. 450/550 i have this combo on my mazda mx3 and escort zx2 and just ordered some for my zx3 but im not sure how to do the rear, should the spring go over the rear shock or in factoy location? know this post is long dead |
