I saw these on ebay 2day and was wondering the same thing....I'm sure they're the same as most entry level coilovers(read:megan racing), but that's just my best guess...I highly doubt you can get them serviced here in the US anyways

yeah i saw them on ebay i was just curios b/c they make them sound like the best deal ever they say ALL carry full MFG warranty. If you are not 100% Satisfied we will pay for the return shipping and give you a FULL refund

sounds good kinda sketchy

I have seen these in person last week and they look pretty dam good. The quality looks alot like the megan coilovers but the kbee camber plates look thicker. The color is pimp yo! They're around 800-900 bucks retail. I was told by the shop I saw them at that they've been available in Japan for quite some time and that they don't leak.

You know, I've seen these for the past two years, and they just seemed like the standard chinese knockoff... I guess I was wrong.

kbee is a old company in japan. last time i saw a kbee product or on japanese option video was back in 1994. i cant tell you if its good or not but i have seen that company before.

Ok, you're wrong...
KBEE Japan was started in 2004

Can someone weigh them so we can find out if they are just as heavy as stance?

hmmm. Kbee coilover's are the equivelent to the old cusco's performance wise. I had a set about a year ago, they are excellent quality and never gave me a problem. There are a couple of D-1 Street class cars that run these coilovers aswell.

They weigh in about the same as the Tein Type Flex, so a little less weight then the Stance coils. But the springs the come with the shocks should be switched out. They are to soft and even can be a little bouncy at times. I switched the springs out to some 10k, 12k swift springs and the performance on track was Exceptional.

they dont look half bad, and the price is pretty reasonable. the only thing that throws me off a little is the bottom mount on the rears, how it thins out like that. Im sure they work fine, it just throws me off a little bit.

I would write Hiku
And tell you about myself
But i can't write them

These feel EXACTLY like stance
They come from the same place anyway
THANKS A LOT ASPEC! They always know whats up wit it!
And for those few people out there on this forum that dont think that a 240 is a 4x4 truck, these go LOOOOW

Heres some pics thanks to TheSquidd

I take it that was directed towards me? Yes with the stiffer spring you lose most of the "daily driveability", depending on how hardcore you are.
I drove them on the street almost daily.
