i finally got the money to buy a coilover for my s13. but im not sure which one im goin to get . so my question is which coilover is the best out there in the market that you could get for around $1100? this is for street and track use .

awesomenick · 10-15-2008, 04:23 PM

Just get Stance or PBM.

Pblesh85 · 10-15-2008, 06:23 PM

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING OFF NICO OR 240SXFORUMS !!!!

I just lost $800. Buy the PBM from them so its not a rip off.

that doesnt help the OP what so ever... I mean, you don't even state why? was it from a member or a vendor? because if its a member, you might as well say "don't buy shit from the internet"

I'd say go Stance. They're inverted monotube and come with 2 set of springs, both of which are probably more comforable/streetable than PBM's set up.

KTS coilovers are also a recommendation. Both are great entry level coilovers are great prices.

the stance is what im thinking right now. but what do you guys think about apex N1 ? A friend of mind has it and he said works really great. just need little more info before getin one .

510-SR20DET · 10-31-2008, 03:01 AM

get DG5 w/ Swift spring

my friend has a set of apexi's albeit it's on a R32, and they're stiff as fuck, too much for the streeet.

stick with the stances, good price, and they look sweet too

MastaYu · 11-04-2008, 04:25 PM

stance Gr pro, i like them alot. the ride isnt too harsh as a dd.

dbenavides · 11-05-2008, 02:16 PM

I have K-sport coilovers on my S14 and they ride great. Not harsh at all.

Z33dori · 11-05-2008, 02:35 PM

PBM

or Stance GR+/GR+ Pro

don't really need anything better than those..

rps13sr20det · 11-06-2008, 06:34 AM

Everyone is running Stance and hasn't had any complaints! I can't wait to get mine

ChiSleepyEyes · 11-06-2008, 08:27 AM

I have been a member on NICO as well as this forum and both have helped tremendously...so stop drinkin the haterade

4sfed180 · 11-06-2008, 10:24 AM

i say go stance. i have driven a few s-chassis on stance its great. i have stance on my daily driven SC300 right now and great. its firm but not too stiff. my buddy has zeal and its just way too much for a mostly street car.

LayNLow · 11-06-2008, 09:21 PM

Cant go wrong with Stance or PBM. I love my Stances, but have not ridden in PBM.

superduner · 11-09-2008, 02:00 AM

Kei office

SoguRacing · 11-09-2008, 02:04 AM

I've got apexi N1 damper pros. super stiff, have had them for 3 years..wouldn't recommend them for the street but i'm too lazy to change them..haha

LongGrain · 11-09-2008, 02:15 AM

some people are so stupid

DG5? yea that is over twice his budget

kei office? those are discontinued...

i would go with GR+ Pro's i have some and i like them a lot, i got mine for $1,250 or so, i think they might be cheaper now. but i'm not sure.

blackrms13 · 11-09-2008, 02:29 AM

+1 for stance, i'd get them if i decide to upgrade my megans
