sup,

I have for sale, Coilovers for an S14 Silvia, and they will fit 1995-1998 240sx, and also an S15 silvia, and others...

The kit is HKS Japan. Custom ordered spring rates, 11KG fronts and 8KG rears, Rear addjustable dampening, set the ride height on all 4 corners.

I was informed by the buyer that It has been Overhauled, so basically you're getting an almost new coilover kit.

have a look at these photographs and see for yourself how nice and clean they are.

I just want $1000 for these.

For $1k, people can buy brand new PowerByMax or some Stance coilovers. Mayb lower the price for a faster sale?

Its already low man. How many times have you seen an Overhauled Japanese coilover kit for sale anywhere?

Stance and Power by Max are cheap pieces of shit compared to this HKS kit as far as i'm concerned :hsdance:

Here comes my 1st bump

I think this is a better balanced suspension kit than the other ones in the price range. Can you not tell its built for balance?

and if you guys could help keep this to the top i would be thankful. and you dont have to say freebump :p

I dont want advice on how to sell it i just want to hear what people have to say...

Is it too stiff? Not the right stiffness? To soft? You want front dampening addjustablity? yea yea, i sound like a moron, stfu right? okay ...
buy something else than.

Shit i should just start a ... what are you guys riding on thread an how much did you pay for it... I wonder, if we could actually guage the overall performance for real... where this would stand, for $1000.

HM..

nah doesnt matter... ugh, i hope atleast this entertainins some of you.

Has anyone heard good or bad things about HKS suspension?

I want to hear it all, I'm kinda tired of the same old, its too expensive, its too expensive, i can get something better, can you tell me why?

Ugh, alright guys, help me out here i would appreciate if this could resemble what it is, a car parts forum, I myself am new to the game, so i cant say much for other kits, i just know HKS is up there, this might be rare, and have "special dampening" compared to something else. dunno

I mean seroiusly, I wouldnt want to take my s14... through any corner sideways ,on anything besides this... right now.. for $1000, of course theres better stuff out there but its well over $1000... and considering Nissan is Japanese, and they Make the best suspension, This came from Japan... i know other stuff comes from japan too but this came from NUMEROUS high end tuner shops... YOu know like the ppl that Race at tracks like actually racing, not like, omg i'm gonna throw some stance on here and mob around some corners at drift day, thats stupid...

You guys acting like you're some boss with a cheap ass knock off suspension, and like it makes your car so tight. Half of you are good enough drivers that you would benifit from a higher performance suspension kit, obviously you cant afford the best, cause its more than what i'm asking but why not get something better you can afford. I'm telling you, this shit is gonna perform better in almost every way.

sure it works, and its proven, but why not try something different, that... surprisingly, might work better.

okay, try to take this lightly. I'm not as big of an asshole as i sound, its just frustating. and i'm honest.


thanks,

and holy shit this is anoying... plz guys D:

This is actually not too bad if it's overhauled. Megans and Godspeeds used are going for $600-$700 so $1000 is not too bad. Definitely would sell faster if it was lower ofcourse. I've never had HKS coilovers but have ridden in my buddies 350z that had it and it was nice & firm. I had HKS springs and shocks for my turbo II and it was great. GLWS.

I like how you say that you are new to the game and don't know a lot about other kits, but you do know that HKS is up there... And for the record, stance is a very good brand of coils for nissans for the money... And the dude that was saying to lower the price was trying to be helpful, and wasn't saying it in a dick-ish way... And how many miles are on them? They look like they're pretty old?

Oh, and I paid 1,000 dollars for my Tein Super Drifts that were Brand New...

But yea, glws dude...

Hm, Why would you need to change the spring rates to addjust the ride height? I hope its low... I could measure from the knuckle mounts to the upper mount if someone wants.. to compare height information... because hes right, you might not want to play with the ride height.

honestly i'd rather have a reliable solid spring/damper combo, i'm not really a hella flush guy myself, I think i wanted handling more than anything, so i had lots of options about how well i could control the car at whichever speeds, and angles, but tires play a big part of car control too, and so do the brakes, i wasnt too dissapointed in the stock S14 brake bias, I think its nice and fine for low speed cornering. I wanted to eventually get baller wheels/tires, like 17x9 18x10 or something, maybe bigger, I really like what koguchi has on his black 180sx...

those chrome fatties... <jelous :wtc:


They have 7000KM on the overhaul. That is what the seller described them with so about 4300 miles.

thanks for all the replies guys. :wavey:

Good luck with the sale bro. Don't let the haters get you down. I don't mind paying for proven quality brands like hks, swift, etc. How much could u do shipped to fl?

The fronts have adjustable dampening too. The little knobs are just missing. See those little posts sticking out of the bottom of the fronts? There is supposed to be a knob over that so you can turn it easier. You can still turn it with some vice grips, or if you have really strong fingers.. haha. I had some HKS coilovers like these a while back, and my knobs were missing too.

Also, the spring rate doesn't change when you raise or lower the collars. The spring rate is a characteristic of the spring, and is constant. The pre-load does change, though. If you lower the collars all the way to the bottom, the spring will be loose until you lower the car and compress the shock. I don't know any of the physics behind all this, but I can say that I didn't notice a difference in the ride quality on mine when I had them as low as they'd go.

yea, i see the little posts on the bottom of the front.

They are rounded though... We're yours rounded? and are you sure they are for addjusting the dampening? Im not sure.

First of all, I told you to lower the price to help you get a quicker sale. Second of all, don't get butthurt. Third of all your an idiot for trying to knock other brands to make yours look better.

Everyone already knows HKS is good shit. I just told you to lower it so it will sell faster.

Stance and PowerdByMax are cheap pieces of Shits?! And you know this How? Do you actually track your car? Or are you just on the JDM hype? OMG HKS!!!! everything else is SHIT! OMG Im so COOl! you are a horrible salesperson and stop crying, try ebay

fyi, you bumped too many times.

You can track a car on lowering springs alone...

I didnt realize replying to a comment in your thread was considered a bump.

It would be nice if some of you ppl could start making me offers... I mean how hard is it to say you have so and so amount of money that you're willing to spend on this suspension?
