What do you guys think of these? Because personally, I have them on my car and they work great...people keep telling me different things, like "take that sh%@$ off your car" and "forget what they say...if it works for you, go for it". I'm just curious to know...what you guys think of them (for those of you who have had them on your car)?

How's the ride I was thinking bout getting the same springs i want tein or JIC but rather put that money towards sr20 and once i get the sr20 then upgrade suspension

If you have vasts amounts of money, go for the Teins/JICs/or even Eibachs w/AGX's....I just bought my springs because it was what I could afford at the time. If they really messed up my suspension, I would've taken em off by now...:)

total, utter crap.

just a liiiiiiiittle more would've bought quality ground controls.

see the "cheap crap people buy" thread for my general feelings on Dropzone trash.

Why do you say there are crap? Do you have any reasons (i.e. they lower too much without the proper spring rate or they mess with the suspension geometry so much that they do more damage than good for the car) or just because of the name?

I wouldnt mind buying them if it was a spring rate I wanted. Springs is springs.

Simple...

Does Dropzone take the time to pick the right spring rates for improved, or even SAFE handling? Did they use the right length springs for the 240SX?

Look at the design and materials of the collar, seat, and the spring itself. Is this functional? Is it going to last more than a couple years?

First I would try to find out if it was tested in any way. Eibach and H&R are very popular because they have been race proven and the Germans are strict when it comes to the quality of their springs.

here's the problem...........the people that buy this junk are the same people that either street race or do nothing buy drive 5mph so people can see how :cool: they are. therefor, these people never actually use the spring for it's intended performance purpose.

all they know is their car looks mAd tYtE yO! and the car doesn't drag on the ground so they must be just as good as an ERS.
