Coilovers, Y U NO tell me min. max. drop....
Hi everyone,
With the A-spec suspension being phased out and no longer having a very competitive price point over aftermarket coilovers I'm looking into what is to replace my A-spec when they've had 50k miles, which will be within 18 months.
I'm interested in knowing the min. max. drop range for these two coilovers. I remember them being available on our supporting vendors' website but they're gone now. Maybe I don't remember it correctly so I searched the manufactureres' websites but still no luck.
I really want to know minimum drop allowed since they all use threaded body to adjust ride height and I certainly don't want my shock snapping off or stripping the .. uhh... I don't know the word... the lower part. I think whichever allows me the smallest minimum drop will be my choice of coilovers. Tein SF holds first place for being under 0.5" which means I can safely maintain A-spec or even slightly higher ride height.
Does anybody know the min. max. drop for
XLR ISC coilover and
K sport kontrol pro??

Our XLR8 ISC coilovers are still available on our website.
XLR8 ISC Coilovers - Excelerate Performance - Japanese and European Performance Specialists!!
At their highest setting they'll drop you about 1", and at their lowest they advertise approximately a 3" drop. I'd go with the ISC coilovers over the Ksports.. but I think the Street Flex are better than both of them in terms of quality. The ISCs do have 32 way damping adjustment instead of only the 16 way on the TEINs.

Thank you. I know the products are still available (which is good) but the lowering min. max. has been removed from all trustworthy sites so I needed to ask. I have nothing to judge between ISC and Ksport but it's nice to know ISC will be slightly lower than what it is right now.
I was looking into ISC and Ksport (not because those are the 2 out of 3 top-of-the-average-consumer-line coilvers) because tein had twin tube but those had monotube, which I prefer but not a necessity.
Decision decision, thank you.
