k-sport or megan coilovers
hey peoples..
i was looking around for coilovers and i was looking at the megan coilovers and the k sport there almost the same price there like 800 something?? if i had more money ofcourse i would get the tein but i dont hehe... so which is better for our cars k sports or megan coilovers? its only for a daily driving for now and maybe i was thinking of trying to drift next year when i get my t2 motor.. .. :) -RE_BANDITS- |
Tein??? No.
Try looking into something like SilkRoad. Spend the extra money if you can. |
Teins are obviously proven, but could be a little expensive to some people. You could always buy used ones for cheap cheap, then spend the money on sending them to get rebuilt.
My friend has Silkroads on his 240, and it rides nice and handles well. Definate good bang for the buck. |
my friend has megans on his 240 with sr20 in it and he daily drives it... they go really low and ride really well.. i plan on adding these to my fc TII. the megans are actuall the apexi n1 coilovers that megan bought the mold from and now sell them alot cheaper

got the silkroads myself... dont think there's anything better than this, for the amount you pay for it!!
welll worth the money! |

Well when you start going up in price you do get diminishing returns, but I think that $1600 coilovers are a better investment than $800 ones, for me anyway. I'd probably never be happy cheaping out on the suspension and I'd just replace them later on with something decent, and I'd be out more money in the end. You get what you pay for, if you buy cheap coilovers then don't expect them to last as long, have as good damping, or have as good customer service as the higher priced brand name stuff. I HIGHLY doubt if any of the cheap ones offer services such as revalving shocks, they probably just replace cartriges and would be unable to alter the damping on them.
I'll get something that's proven to work, proven to last, and proven to have good service available with revalving as an option. If it costs me twice as much, so be it, you gotta pay to play. |
a bunch of guys on the 3000GT/Stealth boards had a group buy on K-Sports and after some redesigning by k-sport (in conjunction with a few of the members) everybody was very happy with the results.

i have a set of HKS Hyper D coilovers for the FC for sale for $1k, a hell of a lot better than either of those setups. ;)

|
I'm thinking of getting Ksports once I get the cash.
They in town for me and co-sponsor our drift events. Some of the local 240 guys are using them and they seem to do pretty well. |

i was told that if you take the lower sleeve off of the megans that you can still see the N1 logo on the bottom......it doesnt matter to me cause ive seen what the look like and seen how low and stiff they are.....
my friend has had them on his 240 for about 2 years now.... |
which do you want to do? canyons or drift? if you set the car up for drift and drive the canyons i hope you have a good life insurance policy.
