Get Godspeed! They're really expensive (600 bucks), so you know you're getting high quality parts!!

Any coilover that has like 3,960,478 different ways of dampening are fucking pointless. Go get some shucks specials or something. Then you will find out whats wrong with them, and therefore learn what you will need a your next set of coilovers. THEN, when you search around for coilovers that your going to buy, you can READ what each coilover has to offer and make a DECISION based on your OWN knowledge.

I mean, what do I know, I'm just another guy on the internet.

I've looked at forums, I am a fan of jic but just can't afford them my s14 had them and they felt great, my first car had Megan tracks and I never had any problems with them but they were bouncy as fuck. I've never own teins but no alot of people who rock them but there are so many new products out there that interest me I just wanted some feed back and thanks to the guys who helped me out

With only 19 posts under his belt, you can certainly learn from this guy, he's learned to do research, which requires you to actually do something instead of being spoonfed information. Go to fucking google, and SEARCH, I swear there is new coilover threads each day, if you know what you like about JIC's, besides the name, look for a quality coilover that has similar specs, everyone has suggested different coilovers but you want outright experience from everyone which you aren't gonna get. USE THE DAMN SEARCH FEATURE IT'S THERE FOR A REASON

And for crying out loud learn how to fucking spell!

no one crying, don't expect to get spoon fed like an infant when all necessary info are already posted. we all don't have the same preference and the members that you think are crying are actually giving you the best advice...GO READ/SEARCH and make your own decision.

You do realize you're crying about people crying right now if you don't like it, head on over to Nico, I'm sure they will coddle to your needs and spoonfeed you everything you want to know
