Do these look familiar to anyone? The seller says unknown brand but the blue ones look very similar to the apexi design... more interested in those as they are brand new, supposedly both sets are from japan

the first ones look like teins just painted over,
the second look like a mismatched set, since the fronts are spring preload ridehight adjustable, and the rears are dual ride hight adjustable.

Don't buy used suspension... You will regret it...

I was thinking tein at first too because of the green but they don't match anything on their site, maybe its an older model?

Not allways true, I got a set of MoonFace Racing 3rd hand. I got them used off of an S15 here in San Diego, that were hand imported from japan that were bought used there. As far as I can tell these coilovers are 3 years old and are still very fuckin good.

second set looks like S14 due to the lenght of the rear shock.
