Has anyone heard of Megan Racing?

I was looking at coilovers for my G coupe and stumbled across Megan Racing. They have a set of coilovers for $1099.00, which seems like a decent price for coilovers (i believe tein coilovers range from $800-$1800 so the price is inbetween).

http://www.meganracing.com/products/...d=437&catid=93

There is the link..if anyone could give any input on this it would be great.

Yes, I have heard of them. They seem to be more active in the Z community than the G community for some reason that I am unaware of

I have heard a couple kids on here tried their test pipes (i think) and they were unhappy with them. Other than that i havnt heard much...

I was looking at their suspensions and havnt heard much on them either....

Yeah, I know they've had bad experiences with the test pipes.

But I've heard a lot of good things about the suspension parts though.

Please note that, although the rear shocks have dampening adjustment, once they are on there is NO access to the adjusting nut on top. To change adjustment you have to remove the shock. Therefore, this utility is basically useless. The only way around this is Tein Coilovers with EDFC unit. Expensive. I have this and very rarely change settings, but I have the option. Hope this helps.

anyone else have any experience with their suspension products. Need to know if their Nissan products are any good.

The first mod i ever bought was a CF Megan Racing exhaust for my first car a 91 celica. It sounded ****ing awesome lol. Its been the only thing i've bought from them tho

Yeah i havtn heard good things about their test pipes, but every company makes something that "isnt up to par". Look at stillens body kits....gross. So maybe megan racings weakness is their test pipes or exhaust peices. I think im going to give it a shot and try some of their products.
