s13 D2 Coilovers??

Are these decent coilovers?? I tried to search, but [email protected] is to short to search for. How do these compare to other coilovers in the same price range? These are for my S13 fastback.

TIA

No, I did searh for D2 COILOVERS and nothing cam up, so I tried to narrow it down to D2 and it was to short, a search for coilover's brings up thousands of threads and I spent a hour trying to weed out anything on D2 reviews and nothing was there.

D2 and KSport are like the worst coilovers on the market, they suck big chocolate salty bawls. PM me for a killer deal on some Megan track coilovers

I sell D2's.

Much better then they have been in the past.

Saying that Megan's are world better than D2's is laughable.

what he said...

I owned D2s... for a daily driver, I think they would suffice. If you plan on doing any kind of tracking, I would spend a little extra and get something else.

Obviously from people with no personal experience with Megan. Look, just because you sell D2 doesnt mean their good. I "sell" D2 as well. As in they are in our product lineup and available yet I refuse to sell their inept junk to any of my customers. I'm not just pulling things out of my ass. I install alot of Megans and have done alot KSports (at another shop). No complaints from the Megans EVERYONE who had the KSports complained. To much body roll, rubbing, springs sagged after time, seals blew out shortly, the camber plates go out of adjustment soooo easily. That was within 1 year of people having KSports. With Megans the 2 years i've had these on my own car with lots of track abuse, nothings blown, nothing's sagging, nothing's cracked. And the same with my customers, and colleages. Some who've even had them longer.
Now dont get me wrong, I do really agree that Megan does make a lot of crap that I would refuse to sell as well, but their coilovers are very well built. My own car is riding on Megans and handles INCREDIBLY and I have a big porky Supra. Body roll on my 3300-3500 pig is eliminated.
So people, quit going off the internet "buzz" and what you hear from your buddies who just go off a name and get some experience, because myself, my customers and other technicians and professionals I know that have used them and others by comparison driving and on the track and they think they're great. Perhaps too aggressive for DDing, but definately track worthy.

my friend has them in his zenki and they drop the car pretty nice. he dd's the car and doesnt beat on it, like no tracks or anything. he is satisfied with them. basically get what you pay for. has them on '04 6 spoke 350z rims sits pretty flush. ride is kinda smooth but its all flat roads here.
