ЯS Racing "coilovers"

Anyone ever seen this brand before? I cannot find crap on it. I can only find the HKS RS coilovers, when I google it.
I do not even think this particular setup was made for the 240. The spring rests on the bottom around the spring perch. Not in the groove for the spring. Is this how these fake coilovers are supposed to look?

This ofcourse is the rear, the fronts are even worse.
I may just put the stock springs back on it for now.

LOL.. I do not drive on them. I just got the car & am still getting it running.
The previous owners drove with these & this damn car bounced all over the place.

Here is a pic of the front fitment. Do NOT be drinking or eating anything while you scrolldown.

Thats the bad part about it. I couldnt even find them on Ebay. Thats sad.

To top it off they never even secured the sleeves. They just slid them on put on the springs & tightened the nut on the strut. I jack the car up an inch & the springs loose contact with the top spring perch. With the suspension fully flexed there is about 4" from the top of the spring to the pearch.

Scary scary stuff, man.

I am putting the stock springs back on this Monday.

after a while people wise up and w/o a demand it is no longer profitable for anyone to try to sell these "coilovers". i must admit i bought some too a few years ago and decide i'd rather throw them away. idk what i was thinking what good could possibly come from $50 coilovers.

btw good to see you back. i'd check in every now and then about the same time you were fist here. now this is my home.

That was my first thought.

With the height of that front spring that front damper must be so blown it might as well not even be in there.

In system tools there is a thing called "character map". Open that & choose Character set... Windows: Cyrillic
