I just bought my friend some of those coilovers you see on ebay for 49 cents! Im kind of interested to see how shitty they are! they got me interested in them now at a 1-4" drop rate.. anyone else ever tried these?

 

i'm interested in how those'll work, i can't afford the good ones.

 

LOL. I wonder if they really work. I found some for 1 cent and 40 bux shipping. I doubt that they are good quality, and you get what you pay for.

 

yeah we know, im interested in them myself, lol. i'll post up how shitty they are once we put them on his accord haha

 

That is beyond "you get what you pay for."

 

 

haha of course!

 

49 cent coilovers don't even belong on a damn remote control car. What the hell is ur friend thinking. Shame on you guys for even considering this for a TL.

 

It's for an Accord, He just wants to see how it rides

 

.49 cents? Too expensive...I'd pass.

 

yea fuck that shit, what a rip

 

No kidding. mine for my rc truck cost over 100 bucks!

 

but your a baller!

 

I bet they won't arrive in the mail..

 

hahaha if it does it be hella bouncy and it break in about 2days...hahaha

 

isnt is illegal to make products that are potentially this dangerous?? what if they blow on the freeway


people who knowingly make shitty parts for cars NEED TO BE SHOT

 

mm.. i guess we should look into that, we'll probably end up selling the springs to some stupid ricer

 

kinda like you?


buying those, even "to see how's the ride" is stupid. sorry.

 

If all you are looking for is a drop and the most shitty ride quality ever known to man you will be satisfied. His alignment will suck, it wil either be incredibly stiff or incredibly bouncy, and the other suspension parts are going to suffer quickly.

 

Try putting some "No Fear!" stickers on them first.....

 

i bought a .49 spring rool at a chinese fast food joint, are you talking about spring rolls?

 

LOL... when it snaps and the car is lying on it belly, make sure you have a video camera around, and send it to america's funniest home video.

 

that's not really why we bought them i just dont want to go into a long story

 

Nah im going to put some NOS stickers on em and sell em for like 700$!!!

 

you cheap fuck

 

why is he so dumb??!?! if i had a bucket i would play around with it to. im curious also to see how they hold up

 

well im sure the springs suck but in order to be sold legally they DO have to meet some kind of safety standard or the guy can be sued for everything so im sure they will be safe, the car will just bounce more than the low riders in a rap video

 

^^ True. Let us know how they turn out, i'm curious as well.

 

yeah that's what we figured the ride will be bounce as hell! but it's worth a shot

 

when are you suppose to be getting these in i want to see how they look and here the feed back on the ride quality lol

 

haha i might have considered putting these on my old bucket ass 85 200sx....but the TL?? noooo way

 

haha, i ordered them 2 nights ago for his car so they should be here by weekend. we'll put them on and i'll take pictures and post up the info

 

Did you pay by credit card? Maybe this is scam for identity theft.

 

nah it's just real real shitty no name springs.. they set the shipping price at 40$ so you pay the difference there, they really cost 40.44$ still cheap as shit

and i paid through paypal they had a outstanding rating through ebay

 

why is everybody freaking out on "integrity" of these springs?

of course they'll hold up without breaking, it's not like those cheapy springs are made of aluminum or anything. hahah

think of it like this: it costs probably $20 to manufacture a few feet of mild steel into a rolled compressed spring. So if they have overstock, it's no biggie to let them go for pennies on the dollar.

The cheapy APC springs are made the same way. They won't BREAK on you, but rest assured, the ride WILL be bouncy (rates are obviously not measured) and they will probably put extra strain on the toe, camber, and caster components of the original suspension system, including ball joints and struts.

IMO, just don't do it man. It will take time to install them, torque everything down to spec, then realize it was just a waste of $$ when you could have spent an extra $100 to get a used set of Ground Controls that have much more sufficient spring rates.

good luck with it anyways

 

Man, this thread is still ongoing... Hey, once you find out (and let us all know) how pathetic these puppies are as auto coilovers, don't trash em.

Take the front pair and attach each to the bottom of your shoe, slipper, foot, etc. Now you'll be the new kid on the block with aftermarket pogo wear!

Plus, you won't have to share your kick-@$$ toy with anyone, because you can invite a friend and give him (or her) the rear pair.

So go ahead and bounce around town to get where you're going because driving will be a thing of the past.

 

ur avatar is throwweedddd

 

Well here are the coilovers on the car, rides bumpy as hell but that's about it. All in all there not bad!

 

 

that is why the car manufacturer DO NOT RECOMMENDED you change the stock for aftermarket and void the warrenty of your suspension parts
