Look very very similar to my Cusco's pretty sure they are the same, they are pretty good coilovers lots of adjustment & a nice firm ride (prob al litttle to firm for road use but i use them on the road) only thing to watch out for is the top's on the front shocks as the as they break down over time & give you a little up & down play but apart from that solid!

buying used shocks is a total gamble. chances are at least one of them is blown (judging by how old/used they appear to be)

Looking at the bottom of the front struts & seeing as there is no key to adjust the dampers, I would say there arn't that adjustable as mine.

they adjust on the top. chances are theyre twin tube, considering they arent body adjustable, and theyre old.

Aww too bad i was gonna say:


Don't do it. Primitive design. Been discontinued forever. You won't get replacements.

It's a time bomb just waiting to happen. These things have to be pretty old.

If you want to buy used product then get a Tein product cause you know it can get rebuilt stateside.

DONT BUY USED SHOCKS DONT BUY USED SHOCKS DONT BUY USED SHOCKS

that needs to be stickied somewhere. unless you KNOW they arent blown (and the only way to know is to dyno them!), best assume they are blown. especially with jdm coils...
