G4 coilovers

[tangyoonee]

Hello ozhonda members.
I'm considering to buy G4 coilovers for my Jazz but I want to hear some comment about it before I get them.
I've used G force coilovers but not G4. Has anyone used them before?

[tangyoonee]

G4 coilovers are currently selling for $899 delivered from Ebay
Anyone has experience with them?

hehe.

i was reading an auto salon article about these, they go they are bang for buck, or something like that, so yeah but i dun have any personal experience

[beeza]

I've heard mixed things...they had leaking problems (probably old design) and they are quite a stiff ride.

Bang 4 buck sounds fitting.I personnally would prefer stock suspension to crap like this,honestly,you just wont get quality for $900,you get bang 4 buck,so if that's what your after,bonus.

[tangyoonee]

nah, I don't like OEM sussy. too soft
I might try G4 n let u know how they r.
I've used G force n they were really gd. assuming they r simillar.

[Premature Vtec]

I run them on my accord, been on for like 7 months or so.

No problems just install them good ! or professional installation. Real Bang4yourbuck !

[beeza]

What are the rates on them? How stiff are they premature Vtec?

nothing wrong with g4. same stuff with d2 and ksport. They are all made in taiwan same as buddyclub. Never had any problems. Mates and i have gone through at least 6 sets on different cars. If you are just looking to lower and upgrade from standard suspension than they are bang for buck

How comfy are they mr180sx?

[mr180sx]

i found them pretty comfy. But it depends on the person and how bad the road conditions are!

[tangyoonee]

wow that pic makes me to decide not buy them.
that might have happened from the accident?

[beeza]

What other's have said about them over rides that pitchure.That could happen to any coilover and probably has.

[NSPYRE]

i believe that pic was taken after a guy tracked his car at oran park and happened in the middle of a corner.

WHOA! Slow down sunshine! I didn't know there were 'rules' to Honda's??

Yup,I Love COMFORT.Would I sacrifice comfort for performance?

NEVER.

There is a happy medium for everybody I believe,the trick is finding it!

[tmy]

Beeza, i think you will find if your suspension is harder then stock, then within time you adjust to the feeling of your harder suspension and it feels as if it is normal.

Personally i would loose comfort for performance, but wouldn't loose comfort for looks.

Well said. +1 :thumbsup:

[I heart the SSS]

That photo of the bent D2 is like all the Rota pics, we have no idea how it happened, why it happened, it's just a photo.

People suddenly make assumptions thinking that "they're cheap so they brake"

Also bear in mind, that photo was nearly 4 years ago, i'm sure they may have redesigned the coilover.

Try out ISC coilovers. They're apparently pretty good.

[beeza]

Thanks tmy!

I hear ya mate.

When I was driving only 100km's a week I might have sacrificed SOME comfort but now I'm doing 600+km's a week and NEED that comfort.I'm 34 now too,so if I was 18-24 it wouldn't worry me so much.

[mr180sx]

Very well said! Im sick of ppl posting up that pic everytime the word D2 comes up. If you have personal experiences then post them up if not s%^tup.:thumbsup:

I have had both D2 and Ksport, they are all pretty much the same including G4 please read up on this..

That pic you refer too is some guy in NZ tracking his car, theses coils are bang for buck to get low down not top dollar Zeil or Tein coils for the track.
Also by the looks of it these guys probably installed them themselves and done a bodge job, causing them to fail under extreme conditions.

I Vouch for them if u want to get low or if you are on a budget.

you're right, the bent coilover is the one from NZ. was thinking of the other pic where the mount snapped off. if u kno the story than u would kno it happened in a D1 round. i'm assuming anyone that enters D1 would know what they're doing and are more than capable of installing a set of coilovers.

to mr180sx: the OP asked for comments. i gave a comment and a picture. no need to take it so personally and rant about it
