    In my opinion, not as good in build quality (from taking one off an Euro and inspecting it). But if you want real life experience of D2, ask Atjo or EuroAccord13.

    Why ask me? I don't have D2 coilovers.....

    Anyway, on a serious note, they are value for money, can drop the car lower than most brands but quality is sometimes an issue. it's so far a 50/50 split between people who have used it.

    The springs are short and when you jack your car up, the springs will in most cases become loose in between the top and bottom spring perch on full spring decompression. This can cause the rubber seats on the perch to fall our of place and I've seen them get crushed and torn badly by the springs when the car is lowered back down again.

    I've also seen cases of D2 shocks leaking but those were on cars overseas...

    I have D2s and no problem from me. They are pretty good for the price on a DA9/6 but havent heard much from other cars.

    if you care for your ride and want suspension that will last for more than a few months at lowered height , do not get D2 coilovers. They are not quality product and will not last compared to most other alternatives.

    Do you need height adjustment? If not, go for Eibach+Bilsteins. Better than SS in my opinion.
