MR Coilover longevity review

First I know this should be in the reviews section, but that section doesn't get enough looks. So I'm posting it here. My question is I got an offer to buy the MR street coilovers and all the MR suspension pieces for 1200 is it worth it? I'm not going to track the car, drift it or anything crazy. At the most some spirited driving on the weekends.

What are some of the problems that you have had with them. Where can I get them rebuilt if I need it. Any problems with the suspension pieces?

Yeah he did give me a list.

Coilovers
Rear Lower Toe arms
Rear Lower Traction rods
Rear Upper Control arms
Front Tension Rods

I know it's a great price, but what I want to know is how they hold up. Like I said it's only going to be a DD. And before anyone starts I know I don't need all this for a DD but I want the adjustability. Besides it's my DD for right now, but it won't be in about 3 years.

megan parts are decent. i would expect the suspension parts to hold up well unless you crash. as for the coilovers they are great for their price, they arn't tanabe sevens or zeals but they are pretty middle range if you know what i mean, pretty similar to KTS and Stance.
