Ek1 Coilovers

[Gio]

Hey guys im looking at getting coilovers for my next mod and would like to know some recomendations on what would be best for me.

I just need them for street, to dump my car on 15"s without scraping when going fast around corners.

I would just like some suggestions and the benefits/disadvantages of the ones you would recommened, also the different brands and value for money.

Thanks guys.

Chris.

EDIT: No more then $1500

depends on what you want to do and how much you planning to spend.. coils can cost anywhere between 1300 - 3000 depending on branding and model.
it seems that lots of people around the forum recommended Buddyclub N+ they around 1600+ and both height and damper adjustable.. you could also look at Teins SS (mixed review on them).. for tight asses you can go for D2 for about 1K from Ebay (but heard they use shyty material), Skunk2 about 1.2k i think

looking at about $1500 to spend.

Skunks any good?

personally i've never tried them... but was told by some dealers to stay away from them due to the fact that their too hard.. might give ur back or ur butt a good workout.. but who knows.. you can try and give us a review? :D

[Gio]

lol. Ill continue researching. But yeah i dont want to be bouncing around the joint :S

[Nodachi]

search around and see what you can get for the money..
i personally got a set of Tein HA (discontinued) and set anything 10+ and you feel like where bump on the road is like running a mine in a battlefield.. try run around parramatta road in sydney and you will have problem walking for about an hour.. but advantage are the ride becomes very very firm.. will try run it on track soon^^

hit the ht forums, some of the sellers have koni yellow + ground control kits going for about $900US, add an extra $200US odd for shipping and you'd still be under $1500 and have an awesome setup, can even get custom spring rates if you want

how much does buddy club n+ cost these days? i have a set which work fantastic no bouncing and you can dump it to the ground. it should be bout 1500. Maybe contact JDM yard or some of the traders here im sure they have a option to suit your need.
