Yes that is also top secret. Mopar and Steeda are just a few of them though.

omfg...dude those are barely coilovers, thats basically a strut spring combo. from the looks of the design, im surprised you can even go that low. i call bullshiet on the RB until you show us pics, also i would think it is very inefficient to have that much power but not having a intercooler that would significantly add more HP especially at those boost levels, if you do have a intercooler that we cannot see from the photos its not getting anywhere near the ideal amount of airflow. i wont even bother elaborating on other problems such as those thin *** tires.

i think the rb buisness is a joke, but why hes not showing us his stock ka i dont know. the "coilovers" look like they have some sort of camber plates but the dampening looks like one of those ebay specials.
mopar = chrysler
steeda = ford
what are you trying to pull here?

Oh man, you really got me on that RB. Damn, I thought I was fooling all of you.....

As for the coilovers, what is your definition of a coilover? All they are IS an adjustable spring/strut combo. Which is what these are..... And I can actually drop it another inch and a half if not two inches.

I cant tell if you guys have a stick up your *** or if you are just retarded.

Edit: GAB is part of KYB. GAB is only distributed over seas. They have camber plates on the fronts and 4 way adjustable in front, 8 way in back. And they are most definitely NOT a cheap Ebay special.

Yeah, I think the only thing that is the same is the housing. These are NOT KYB AGX with ground controls....

nobody said they were, son, the main difference between those and say, my KTS coilovers is that the lower mounts are not threaded, making them very different in the way you would adjust them, and preload is not adjustable. i also dont like how the springs dont touch both perches when the strut is fully extended.

lol... picked up a wreck did you? painted rad... that must suck.
Lets not speak out of our asses, sound good? Actually, it was not a wreck, I got in a fender bender and had a new bumper painted. The body shop ****ed up and sprayed it while it was on my car., hence the paint on the radiator... But hey, at least they gave me a discount, got a bumper painted for $50. Also, learn how to spell a simple 3 letter word, the "e" and "a" are too far apart for you to use the typo excuse. So, you fail.
