does anyone know of a place that has compared the big name coilovers with each other?

i'm looking for coils that are height and dampener adjustable. of the ones i've found prices range from 1499 for JIC's to $2900 for Cusco's. both of these have 15way adjustable dampeners. so the question is what spend more then double for the cusco's?

 

i guess there's no reason to spend double on the cusco's

 

Go with the JIC. If you are looking for a beginner set-up, there is no sense in spending $2400 on the high end. Eventually, you could upgrade to the Cusco units. You should also check Tein or Tanabe.

 

i don't really want a "beginner" set. these cost alot of money, i'd rather do it right the first time.

 

They aren't really "beginner" sets. Go with what you want and what your wallet can handle. You are right, do it right the first time.

 

after looking around i'm going to have to say tein's are a negative. from what i've gathered tein is like the cheapest of the bunch. if it were audi, lamborghini, maserati and ferrari they would be audi. very nice but not as good as the rest.

 

JIC are great coilovers. I wouldnt go for the cusco's, not worth that mch money imo.

 

does n e one agree with tein being bad coilovers? i was goin purchase a set but.........
have u checked HKS or Apex, or the one that starts with a M, i forgot what its called

 

tein's aren't bad perse'. nothing i've mentioned in here is bad. tein is the lowest of all the named brands, at least it seems that way.

HKS and Apex are overpriced. they don't offer anything better then the other companies and cost almost double.

 

Tein...have had first hand experience with them and they are good coilovers. Not the best out there, the HAs and HEs are great coilovers for the price I will admit that. But if there was a choice between JIC and Tein, I would go JIC.

 

I have tein he's and i don't seem to have a problem with them..There not the greatest like HKS or Cusco but pricey... I hear JIC stuff is ok.. But then I think its mostly user prefrence.... I see more ppl sell there JIC coils then Tein ones..
