Probably the same shit that everybody sells.
Same shit, different colors. Cheap price, cheap quality.
Buy them and let us know.

these are new. i believe they were just realeased a few days ago max, so i doubt any private reviews are available. you could be the first to review them and let us know like Brian said.

When it comes to car parts and especially performance parts....you get what you pay for. I personally would never run anything that cheap. For 1100 dollars you can get some stance gr+ coilovers. They are proven and people love them. I have tein on my car and love them.
For the price of those isis coilovers, I would rather just run kyb agx and eibach springs.

Because they think ISIS is a 'real' brand name. Then they make fun of people with 'Ebay' parts. They are just terrible shoppers I think, unaware that they could have bought the same thing on Ebay for 200$ less.

i love how everyone is making fun of isis.....anyways, they have been out for a few months, but they are out of stock because they sold out so fast. isis made them not knowing how they were gonna sell and now they are in the process of making more. i was going to pick up a set of these, but got bored with waiting so i got some JIC's. i've heard good things about them, only bad thing i've heard is the rear can't be dropped as much as people would like. isis is just like megan in my opinion, they started out as a "ebay" company but they are turning into a good product for the price, Enjuku Racing backs all of their isis products and isis offers an AMAZING WARRANTY! they are all about keeping their customers happy.

ISIS did not make them, they ordered them from the same factory as Godspeed or whatever 'Ebay company,' and painted them yellow. I guess they ran out of yellow paint.
At least Godspeed and all the other cheap/knockoff companies are not trying to trick anyone that they aren't selling a repackaged 'Ebay' product.

nah, if you have a problem with one of the products, they will definitely work with you and most likely swap it out.
Matej
12-09-2009, 05:29 PM
How many people actually get a chance to take advantage of the warranty? Maybe 5% at most I would guess. For the price difference you pay, you might as well buy a brand new part off Ebay if something ever goes wrong with the first one. Plus most Ebay stores have warranties/returns/exchanges/customer service as well.

i bought their old coils enjuku sold. the red/maroon isis ones. they had a "MDU" sticker on it. did some online interweb research and found out they are actually ebay coilovers.
when i installed them, the rears were fine. but when i installed the fronts, it all went down hill. they fit fine and everything. but when i lowered the car, the front was so high. it was like stock height. i adjusted them to the lowest setting and it went down just a hair. its terrible. my car is sitting like i got 100 pounds worth of sandbags in my trunk.
i don't know about the new ones (gold) that they are selling though.

If you can't tell this shit is probably made in the same factory as all generic ebay coils... :rimshot:
Did ISIS ever make a R&D thread like MAX USA? Just the re-engineering on their parts alone sets them worlds apart.
Idk. I'm blown away. Americans aren't like Europeans, whom realize the more expensive Mercedes will last longer than the VW's and buy the more expensive one first. People never think about long term costs.

"occasional track use" ya, more like "don't use these on the track or your car will blow up.
Anyway, it seems that people judge coilovers by how low they can drop the car rather than how GOOD the actual coilover is... Amirite?

Ultimately, who cares. These will lower the car, make it stiff, and upgrade the handling of the car. That's all 95 of 240 owners want anyway. Half these people saying 'oh this sucks' or 'that sucks' wouldn't tell the difference unless they were told whats under the car.

you should really talk to enjukuracing about them, they tested them and sell them, they would know more than anyone. i believe a company that backs the products they sell, sell good products.

More like how cheap they can get them for than how good they are.
And if you compare the two pictures of the godspeed and the ISIS suspension you will clearly see that they are exactly the same.
So stop asking for ISIS reviews and go back and read the Godspeed ones.....oh.....wait. what am I thinking? People that actually bought the Godspeed ones didn't even have the common sense to buy a decent product, so they probably won't even have the brains to write a sensible review. lol.

How about this, if they suck your out of 500 bucks or less, if they don't than your set! I hate that everyone saying by this brand or that brand! Is anyone here getting paid to support any of the name brands? I'm not, so I just want my moneys worth! If you purchased these coil overs please tell me your honest opinion! If u haven't purchased them and you can only assume than shut the fuck up! When u assume... well everyone knows the rest!

hahah, everyone loves the salesman regardless of the product.
a GOOD salesman would just be honest and tell you they are crap, and try and sell you the REAL shit, with all the right reasons of why you should invest MORE of your money in his company's premier products.
i see ISIS as enjuku's "easy way out" of this economic rut we are in. "sell cheap parts otherwise ill tank"... makes sense on a longevity outlook, but in reality is taking a deuce on the consumer.
and if "ISIS" is soooo great... why is enjuku the ONLY one EVER to carry their line?
right.
carry on.

comparing pictures isnt really a fair comparison, how they look has nothing to do with the quality of the dampener and the valving.. which is the only reason i would buy a coilover anyway
Enjuku Racing
12-10-2009, 08:22 AM
Wow.. this thread blew up very quickly. I will do my best to answer as many of the questions and comments i ran through.
First about the ISIS coilovers:
No, they are not Godspeed, or any other coilover. The manufacturing plant that some parts are produced may be the same, however the overall design is different. Not all the parts are built in the same place.
ISIS asked us to sell their coilovers, but for along time we did not want to. For this exact reason, people would look bad at Enjuku for selling a lesser expensive product. Guess what, we sell what the customers ask for........However, like every other product of theirs i said we would test and then decide.
We got a set, tested them on some demo cars and our own and for the money thought they were good. However we wanted to have them change a few things on them. One being how low the front goes. If you look at the entire shock body and spring on the Front of the ISIS coilovers you will notice they are DIFFERENT than the other brands out there. The valving is also different.
My thoughts on coilovers:
There are most likley over 1000 "brands" of coilovers. Do you think there are 1000 different manufacturing plants? No, but I bet that 800 of those brands have some difference. 90% of the time you are paying for a name or the slight difference in any product, car related or otherwise.
ISIS Arms:
These are 100% NOT ANYONE ELSES!! ISIS sent us a few sets to test, we didnt like them at all. So we completely redesigned them ourselves. Out of all the ISIS products we had our hand in these more than anything else. If you look at the sweep on the RUCA, The thickness on all the tubing, and the rod ends... they are NO ONE ELSES!! I personally did most of these. So you can all stop that argument. Whether someone has already coppied the ISIS arms, that i dont have much control over.
I have already seen companies copy ISIS products... It happens quick, one reason we try to keep them ahead of the game.
Why does Enjuku sell ISIS? - Because the market demands it. that is how business works. For years i fought that as a business owner. I only wanted to sell high end big name parts, and for 8 years i did. However, the MAJORITY of the 240sx community wants an inexpensive, Quality Part, sold by a reputible company - HENCE - Enjuku Racing sells ISIS.
Who is ISIS? ISIS is an over seas company/manufactuer that has been asking us to sell their stuff for years, which we resisted until a little over a year ago. We are helping them with product development and branding here in the US. There have been about 30 ISIS products that we have tested that we have either had them change or said we would not sell, because it was not up to our standards for the money.
Who else sells ISIS? ISIS is sold through about 25 different shops at this time. Enjuku is not the only seller of ISIS. Why are they selling it also? Because the market demands it.
I dont know why people get their panties so up in a bunch over this stuff.
If you want an inexpensive part that has been tested, proven, and is stood behind by one of the longest standing Nissan shops in the country.. then buy ISIS.
If you want a high end name brand.. CALL ME.. I SELL IT and have been for over 10 years!!!
It is pretty simple. I dont see the need for any arguing or name calling.

I don't resent the community for wanting cheaper parts. Some people have different beliefs and opinions. Build your car, stay true to yourself, and buy what you want to buy. If you have any issues with ISIS stuff, don't hesistate to call us, WE warranty ISIS stuff, you don't have to go through them and wait 6 months for them to just look at the product like the typical product warranty goes.

but i would like to see the percentage of these coilovers ACTUALLY FAILING/breaking.
I know all you guy's preach to high heaven about "OMG STANCE,PBM,TEIN,TANABE,YASHIO FACTORY,etc etc"
and so forth but i would REALLY like to see some sort of compairison test's against these $1200 + coilovers Vs. Ebay $500 coilovers.
and i would like to see someone with the "jerkoff baller status coilovers" give a average 240sx owner the keys to there car, then have the same person the "pos ebay coilovers" and see if they know the differance between them.
i would strongly believe NOT many people will be able to tell the differance except maybe how stiff/soft they are.
personally i don't really care. It just seems like to many parking lot warriors pray on Stance/etc. and shit about ebay shit yet they don't have the driving skill to make the money differance worth it. fuck most people buy them just to get "MOAR LOW"
just another reason why i'm sick of the S-chassis scene.

All I'm really concerned with is when will ISIS be making s14 coilovers? I don't care about ride height. I'm not f'n gangsta and don't give a damn about VIP. My Avalanche with leather seats is plush enough. LOL. I'm just the guy that want to replace my 269XXX mile suspension with functional parts. I do maybe one SCCA event a year.
That's my rant. Sorry guys. Anyway. Yeah s14 coils would be great enjuku. I'll be one of the buyers

couldn't have said it better. too many of the people on this site are concerned with "baller status." what they don't realize is that not everyone wants their 240 to be the collest 240 on the planet. when i buy suspension, it's gonna be hard for me to decide between a USED set of something decent or a BRAND NEW set of WARRANTIED coilovers that nobody but a professional driver is going to know the difference of. make fun of me all you want but my car will ride much better than it did before, insignificantly worse than your baller shit, and the best part i don't have to debate myself about whether i should buy suspension or pay my rent! when i want to be comfortable i drive my dakota quad cab, it rides smooth as shit, is lifted and is comfortable as hell. want i want to treat a car like a dirty whore, i take out the 240

Im not saying Isis will be like other Ebay brands, but when i rode in my friends 240 with Godspeeds I could definitely feel the difference between those and my Bridgestone NPG's because everytime he hit a bump the car would bounce for another 30 feet.

we need someone to pony up the cash and buy them. i don't get paid until the 24th (which is when i plan on buying coilovers) but i wouldn't mind trying a set. i'd definitely get them if i could work out a bit of a discount for being the "zilvia guinea pig"

I've placed orders with enjuku on several occations and even got my Stance GR SS-D's through them, Out of the companies I've dealt with they have come through for me better then any other... I feel if they are willing to put there (for a lack of better words) neck out there and sell these coilovers, then thats more then enough reason for me to think they might be worth looking into. Like others have said Take the dive try them out and give us your review, Oh and Goodluck!

i love how everyone is making fun of isis.....anyways, they have been out for a few months, but they are out of stock because they sold out so fast. isis made them not knowing how they were gonna sell and now they are in the process of making more. i was going to pick up a set of these, but got bored with waiting so i got some JIC's. i've heard good things about them, only bad thing i've heard is the rear can't be dropped as much as people would like. isis is just like megan in my opinion, they started out as a "ebay" company but they are turning into a good product for the price, Enjuku Racing backs all of their isis products and isis offers an AMAZING WARRANTY! they are all about keeping their customers happy.
I love how you think "isis" manufactured those coilovers. A while back a Taiwanese company contacted my friend (who sells autoparts) and offered to manufacture his own brand of coilovers. Any colours he wants, any logo spring rate etc, for a very very reasonable price. I guarantee these cheap ebay coilovers are all made in taiwan in the same place by the same company.

Megan coilovers are made in Taiwan, Apex street coilover is made in Taiwan, BC coilovers are made in Taiwan, KTS coilovers are made in Taiwan, along with many other good branded coilovers are made in Taiwan.
Bottom line there's nothing wrong with having products made elsewhere as long as the quality control is within tolerance, whether it's made in Vietnam, China, Taiwan, Korea etc. However, it just so happens Taiwan made products are far superior in the suspension area than China.
We tried a China coilover before and it rode worse than stock shock / springs, absolutely no valving taken into making the coilover other than making them "look" like a coilover.
As long as Enjuku said they tested them, I do believe Ken's words has some level of credit since it makes no sense to sell JUNK.

We got a set of S14 coilovers to test a few months ago. We sent back some revisions and i am waiting on the new proto-type to show up. It should be here in a few weeks and going on my S14 for testing.
Hopefully just another month or two before the S14 ones will be here in production.

Only people comparing ISIS Basic Coilovers to PBM and etc are you elitist dudes who know whats best for everyone. We're just offering entry level coilovers for those who either don't want to spend 1000+ or can't spend that much money on suspension. You can track them if you want, and daily drive on them to, we're backing them 100%, and if product failure happens for some reason, we'll warranty them.
As Ken stated earlier, these aren't the only coilovers we offer, so if you don't want these, let us know what you want and we'll sell them to you. Thanks for your input, but stop being jerks for no reason.

Well if you think about it, most of the cleanest cars on Honda-Tech get towed to shows; most of the cleanest RX-7's spend their lives in garages; and most of the highest powered Supra's are dyno queens.

Oh and i forgot the godspeeds started sagging in like 2 months while the stance I have had for 8months still feel like the day I bought them.

Hell. I guess after hearing what Ken had to say about them then there's absolutely nothing to complain about. If he has a warranty and backs them, then I'm sure that they will either be fine, or they won't. And either way Ken has you covered.
From the experience of those around me who have dealt personally with ISIS, and with Ken, he does everything to ensure that you are satisfied with him, his company, and his products.
Sorry for ever questioning the product bud.

"occasional track use" ya, more like "don't use these on the track or your car will blow up.
Anyway, it seems that people judge coilovers by how low they can drop the car rather than how GOOD the actual coilover is... Amirite?
Is that any different then people saying stiff=good ride quality? no, it's not.

This is so true. Everyone is like omg those are gonna fail and break/blow up etc. Um where is all the evidence? Now I will admit that a few people would notice the difference between a high quality set of coilovers and the cheaper 'ebay' stuff. But I'd be willing to lay money down and bet that for 95% of the people buying coilovers for their 240 it ends up being more about the brand name than the quality. It's like buying Guess jeans just to have Guess jeans. Most guys that put coils on their car just want to slam it. And ebay coils will work just fine for that.

not true my buddy has some Tein coils and they ride pretty smooth, he has a lil more slack than i would prefer to have on my coils. But his car actually rides pretty nice. And i've driven on both Stance GR+ and GR+ Pro, and i would have to say they are both pretty comfortable. Obviously the GR+ are a lil softer. That being that i believe Stance's new Luxury coilovers are prolly really nice. IDK maybe i can talk my mom into finally putting coils on here Z, get her to get those and find out.

Its not like you guys did not know that from the start when enjuku started backing isis up.
1 place sells isis=enjuku
1 place supports isis=enjuku
1 place speaks with isis about rnd=enjuku
They look like ebay parts, god speed parts, isis parts, same shit, different colors.
Isis looks marginally better sometimes, but that could be that extra .50 cents spent on paint.
He backs up the product, and the price reflects that. junk product+ 20% higher price= warranty... even if you have 10% fail rate, you still have 10% margin.
The best part is... Is when he refers to "isis" in 3rd person as another company, an actual entity, instead of the factory in china....

it does not matter where its made, it matters how it designed. high dollar coilovers are DESIGNED IN JAPAN TO STRICT GOVERNMENT STANDARDS. they are made in taiwan/china because THE COST OF PRODUCTION (labor) is cheaper, but the design STILL complys with strict japanese government standards.

wtf
of course enjuku is trying to make a profit, he runs a business.
ppl are upset because it looks like he was a vendor of his own product, thus having a biased prespective when marketing it.
I see no problem in being the vendor of your own product, ken has never made any false accusations that isis is superior to another brand that would obviously be biased. most reviews of isis are from actual ppl who bought/used the product.
enjuku has always doled out competitve deals/specials to zilvia members, ran discount codes, etc. when ppl start jumping to conclusions right away, they are biting the hand that feeds them.

You got two choices by cheap coilovers with questionable valving or save up and buy decent coilovers with proper R & D with good valving so your suspension absorbs bumps instead of skipping right over them. your choice.
However, if your not racing and doing this for looks just get cheap coilovers and save your money for something that really matters in life.

if you follow the windflowers youll see parts that OH SO resemble parts made by some of your favorite companies, made in different colors.... sometimes they dont even change the colors... do the math, im not gonna spell it out for you.
that being said, learning that theres a high chance that most of my suspension from a very reputable drift shop on here is produced by the same company that makes godspeed/isis... is disappointing yet intriguing as my parts are beefy as hell, and the godspeed crap looks sooooo puny.
i do like that this company now shows them MAKING things like RUCAS in house, but all the "straight" type of arms (tension/toe *excluding the newest ones*/traction) still look the same...

Pull out your Parts Shop Max coilover and compare it to that. There are some differences guys. Also, many companies do get their supplies from the same manufactuer, however, differences in valving, spring rates and rebound may differ.
And stop all that Tawain sucks Bullshit. It is a completely different place than China. I've had many people tell me it's like a old school Japan. I'd take the advice over well informed friends that have been in country over some 17 year old kid at his desk eating PBJ and yanking it.

youre preaching to the wrong crowd homie. i own the ENTIRE gen 1 catalog of suspension/steering. i LOVE it. but some of their arms look scary close to windflower.
but they are TIGHT on the development and their fabrication is beyond comparison.
im in NO way bashing PSM. i love their shit to death. my car is the reason all the locals got PSM parts in the first place.
PBM knows their shit...
Straight from DAN at PBM.
"Like many JDM brands, these are made in Taiwan to strict Japanese Spec.
I hope everyone knows the difference between Taiwan and China, and does not place them in the same catergory.
Taiwan is like an old school Japan, with more respect to quality control parameters than most. They also use Japan parts where necessary like the pillowball. This is how we get a supurb product at a nice price with zero parts failure. Other parts we make in the USA and elsewhere, each part is different depending on where MAX can achieve the best cost and quality to pass value directly to the customer."

ordered mine. can't wait for them to come! stand by for pics. personally i'm glad to be someone who doesn't really mind everyone else's opinions. i mean, this thread is PAGES long and not ONE comment (well there was actually ONE, which was positive by the way) has had any substance as far as real experience.
when i had my Mazdaspeed protege i used to run tokico illumina shocks on ground control coilovers. they looked great, never bounced, and i ran CIRCLES around other guys (with hardcore expensive coilovers) in my car with a sub $900 setup.
so, in about a week and a half or two weeks, i will post pictures and write an honest writeup about the isis coilovers. then nobody has to give their opinion about what they "think"
the guys an enjuku were extremely nice when processing my order, and they warranty these coils for life... for the price, i don't see why more people HAVEN'T tried them.
wish me luck everyone! i'm sure they will work out great.

Just so every1 know PSM does buy from Windflowers. Here's the link.
Windflowers Information Company : US Import Shipment Data - www.iEaling.com (http://www.iealing.com/shipper/windflowers-information-company.html)
taken directly from thier website.
needcafors13 or whatever your name is, look at the end of the sentence it reads STRICT JAPANESE SPEC.
Like many JDM brands, these are made in Taiwan to strict Japanese Spec.
I hope everyone knows the difference between Taiwan and China, and does not place them in the same catergory.
Taiwan is like an old school Japan, with more respect to quality control parameters than most. They also use Japan parts where necessary like the pillowball. This is how we get a supurb product at a nice price with zero parts failure. Other parts we make in the USA and elsewhere, each part is different depending on where MAX can achieve the best cost and quality to pass value directly to the customer.

OK? Where does it say the Japanese government regulates coilovers? Oh, right. It doesn't.
They're being built to specifications outlined by Japanese companies... Shut up you little tool. Stop posting garbage.

Allright I've been watching everyone bitch in this thread why don't we just wait for jurismydiction to let us know what he thinks about him. Jurismydiction can you please post pics up of the suspension and how you personally like it. I am trying to decide between these and some megans.

pics will be up in form of camera phone tonight, and real camera tomorrow. so far i mist say the ride comfort has exceeded my expectations and yet the back end breaks cleanly and smoothly. i have plenty of other issues to take care of with this car but the coilovers really made me fall in love with the car all over again. the fronts slam very nicely, the rears i have them up about .5 of an inch, gonna lower them more (possibly remove the perches being that im' on 15 inch steelies right now). i don't know what everyone was fussing about, the quality of the coilovers out of the box was excellent. thread protectors, good paint, caps all in the right place. for the price, to get a coilover with an adjustable camber plate and a really good ride high adjustment that feel as good as these isis, PLUS with warranty like it is, i say they absolutely cannot be beat. drove a friends car with megans and i'm more impressed with the isis...
this is just my opinion, so take it how you will, but i recommend them as an entry level coilover/dd coilover for sure.
my favorite part about them is that the mounts themselves are adjustable independant of the shock, so you can slam them and still get the full amount of damper travel.
mind all of you, i have not yet aligned them or adjusted the dampening, so after all of this is done, i would imagine i will be even more pleased with them. i'll keep everyone posted, and once i have pics, i'll post them up here and in a new thread!

absolutely, TOMORROW i'm dropping the back all the way and i'll take some decent pics. remember the motor's blown so i've only driven on them for a first ride. they haven't been adjusted or anything but you'll see the lowest ride height "WITHOUT PRE-COMPRESSING THE SHOCK" which these coils have the ability to do. so essentially they go very low in the front. in the back they have a limit but it's still not bad.

Alrighty, so after 2 weeks of waiting I finally got my coilovers from ISIS aka Enjuku Racing. There has been alot of hate or alot of love for this company, and I came in hearing both the pros and cons, but i decided to give ISIS a try and see how there products actually were. Before we get to the pics, lets just say WOW, coming from springs to coilovers was the best thing i have ever done, I recommend any one who is still on springs to convert. The big topic is people have springs because of the fact that coilovers are so expensive, well that was the case for me, as is alot of people. Save up a little more and get yourself a set of these. Anyways, iv'e ridden in alot of 240's with decent coilover setups from Megan Racing to Ksport. Those both being 800+ coilovers, i found the ISIS coilovers just as equal if not better. Now if your looking for your coilovers to go "Hella" low then these are probably not for you, but on 17's you will have no wheel gap. I have stock 15's and have very little gap even though they are Maxed Out and my tires are meaty as fukkk. If I wanted to i could have taken a collar out and gone lower, but for me i don't want to hear my tires rub every turn or slide. As for Sliding, they were awesome. Very little body roll. If anybody has any questions, feel free to ask. And if your not going to say something positive, KEEP IT OUT OF THIS THREAD.
All in All i'm very happy and ISIS FTW
Here are pics and better one's to come of install when friend stops being lazy and uploads them. and i'll actually have a video of me sliding on them in 2 weeks or so. Cheers

please dont post a vid of that car in 2 weeks. also, just because you rode in a few cars with different coilovers doesnt mean you can give an acurate rating/comparison. No one car rides the same.
I used to have jic flt-a2 on my s13 along with a close friend. Our cars rode completely different. There are so many variables that have to be taken into account that comparing different cars should not be considered as a valid comparison.
How Drift tengoku compares coilovers is the only way it should be done other than a shock dyno comparison. Even a shock dyno doesnt matter if you dont know how to read the chart. Drift tengoku installs teh coilovers on the same car on the same day and adjust them as close as possible.

I'm liking mine from what I know, spun bearings in the single cam so the car has been sitting, with the rear adjustment perches still in place I'm not too fond of the drop in the back so if you're going for "slammed" look elsewhere, however the ride is excellent. Ill stop being lazy and post some pictures tonight when I get off work (gimme about 2 hours, gotta walk and fed the pups and feed my snake). Ill probably remove the rear perches (both of them) and get an additional 3/4" to 1" of drop out back. I'm also on 15" steelies with like 195/55 so that could possibly change with bigger wheels. Ill start a thread and post a link here in a bit.

PBM knows their shit...
Straight from DAN at PBM.
"Like many JDM brands, these are made in Taiwan to strict Japanese Spec.
I hope everyone knows the difference between Taiwan and China, and does not place them in the same catergory.

This is how we get a supurb product at a nice price with zero parts failure. Other parts we make in the USA and elsewhere, each part is different depending on where MAX can achieve the best cost and quality to pass value directly to the customer."
You need to go to school where they teach you USA is a market driven (well, mostly) economy. Nobody tells you to buy Japan, China, Taiwan, USA or whatever product. So, if you are saying China cannot make products like Taiwan, you should STFU. Give the budget that Taiwan uses and China will make an equal product. The problem is not the location, it is the price. There is a 46" LCD TV for 1500+, there is one for 900. Of course the 900 one will not perform as good as the 1500 one.
please dont post a vid of that car in 2 weeks. also, just because you rode in a few cars with different coilovers doesnt mean you can give an acurate rating/comparison. No one car rides the same.

A shock dyno is the best way to compare coilovers, because there are no other variables. Humans are not perfect. So as good as Drift tengoku did in the coilovers review, a shock dyno is still better. Especially your best setup does not equal my best setup. And if you do not know how to read the dyno chart, maybe you should not compare coilovers in the first place.
Damn, I hate people that has no knowledge base.
Back to the topic. Stop showing how low the coilovers can go. That is like the least important information. And to all the people that says they are shit, as long as they can make you car performs better, they did their job. If your 2000 dollars coilover system improves your lap time by 3 second where as the 600 dollars one improves 1 second, the 600 dollars are still better bang for the buck.

ISIS did not make them, they ordered them from the same factory as Godspeed or whatever 'Ebay company,' and painted them yellow. I guess they ran out of yellow paint.
At least Godspeed and all the other cheap/knockoff companies are not trying to trick anyone that they aren't selling a repackaged 'Ebay' product.
.............................i guess being from kansASS city makes you an expert right?...didn't think so, have you used them? didn't think so, your just a moron with 1 cent to add into any conversation that dosn't take brains to sound intelligent, Isis is NOT Ebay Crap, they are reputable, and yes they are a Chinese importer yet they reject garbage products because they value their reputation, oh and by the way, that hatch that has them...was tracked with guess what ISIS COILOVERS im glad everyone who hasn't tried out apair of the coilovers has something to say...SNIP
