Tanabe Coilovers: Sustec Pro S-0C

So i think i am going to go with these coilovers. I just wanted your opinion before I pulled the trigger. I am getting them for $800.00 shipped and $150 extra for install. What do you guys think about those prices? Also should i go for these coilovers or go with something else? I am purely buying coilovers for cosmetic so i can get the perfect drop int he front and rear. I am not a hard driver at all. I drive slow like a grandma. Give me your honest opinions about these coilovers thanks guys!

I think that price is pretty good. I wanted those two, but I decided to go a different route. From reading reviews on here and myg37, they seem to ride pretty good. Not too far from eibach IIRC. I think those would be perfect if you never plan on tracking your car.

Sorry for not replying in the PM, so here's my opinion>>

These are really good coils, they are aimed more towards street and light track duty. Excellent ride when you cruise and "drive like a grandma". These would be perfect if you want the height adjust-ability and smooth driving feel.

Sounds like a good deal for that kind of price tag. Where are you ordering them from? I was going to pull the trigger on some D2's fully adjustable coilovers at a local shop for $900 plus install.

thats an awesome price. cause I can get the cheap for 815 picked up. so your prce is by far better.

I plan on getting these coils next month. For what they are and do, it's all you really need for the street.
