im looking for an affordable set of coilovers... i found some megans for about 780 or soo which is perfect for my price range... im also looking at some Ksports... soo if any of you have any input or opinions on either... and if anyone has pictures of your G's with megans or Ksports and also let me know how you like them.. etc... thanks!

 

You get what you pay for...cheap coilovers=lack of features, adjustability & usually a crappy ride.

 

I had the K-Sports installed on my Skyline. They rode quite well with the dampers on the softest setting and minimum preload on the springs. Firm but not harsh and bouncy.

They clunked when going over bumps on the road. I have installed numerous sets of coilovers in the past with zero issues and did these exactly as per the manufacturers instructions. Could not get the clunking to stop (was like a metallic, lose suspension sound). Also, they dont come with brackets for the brake and ABS lines so you'll have to get creative; the little bolt-in bracket they provide is useless.

 

I ran the Megans for over 25,000 miles, they worked good and were still in good shape when I took them off. I tracked them quite a bit and they could handle a 20 min session without any drop in performance. Until your looking at a good two-way set, and are tracking, I wouldn't pay for the more expensive coilovers, what you get for spending another $1000 - 2000 really is not worth it for DD, IMO.

 

You do get what you pay for... in fact i was just reading about megans and Ksport. megans uses cheap parts such as top mounts. And over at another forum I just saw a thread of Ksport breaking in half. Guy was driving normally...

You can probably buy teins or Tanabe for 8-900$ which is well worth it...

 

stance lx+

vendors on here sell for under 1k

you will not be dissapointed

 

i second stance. i went with the gr's and havent looked back. super low stance and it rides 10x better than any spring setup i have had in the past. id even go as far to say it rides better than stock and im about 4 inches lower!

 

yep - quality, reliability, functionality, price... all good with Tanabe... good bang for buck suspension mod for sure!
