is this worth it

ok well i just put new struts and coilovers on my car not eny good coil overs just some generic ones off ebay which i aint likeing too well but some1 i kno just had a cavy and sold it and had a full air ride system on it then took it off to sell it has everything u need and said shell let it go for 500 bucks worth it or not ?should i stick with the struts and coil overs or go with that??

well if you have the money and you dont like how its riding now then defintally go with the air ride setup...mabye you can get her to help you set it up...

and for future reference, never buy performance from EBay

i would def go with the air ride setup. i agree with cavlcd, when going for performance, dont go looking on ebay. lol

haha yea i knoo i was kinda broke at the time and said why nothah but yea i think ima goo with it i here installation is liek 1000 $ though

haha yea i knoo i was kinda broke at the time and said why nothah but yea i think ima goo with it i here installation is liek 1000 $ thoughyeah thats where they get you is with the damn install... lol of course you get a good price on the actual product, but then comes time to install and they stick it to ya.

if you get anything from ebay look at brand anmes, and go with what you know

hahah yea the install is crazy on thosee thats why im ifffy with it the only reason i want them is cuz my car tends to bottom out alot and i hate that cuz i just put a whole new kit on and soon its gonjna be all torn up again if i dont do something but i think its from havin the cheap coil overs on them its like really stifff of a ride when im driving any suggestions?

yea get the air ride. Read alot on the internet and install them yourself

if you get anything from ebay look at brand names, and go with what you know

True, BUT, there are some COUNTERFIET "name brand" parts out there. I've read about a few parts, like cheap BOVs (that fail instantly!), RB26DETT oil pans (which still had silica sand from the casting process, in the pan, By-by bearings!) all the way to suspension parts that look like tack welded sheet metal.

RULE OF THUMB: Buy performance parts NEW, direct from the manufacturer or at least from a highly respectable re-seller. Body parts don't affect the performance of your engine, (duh) so you can buy them from anywhere you want. Sometimes you luck out and find a nice kit or hood that somebody needs to get rid of quick and you'll get a great deal and a good quality part. Sometimes... you get what you pay for...

in that perspective, suspension parts are just as, if not more important then performance parts, so those too should be carefully shopped for, and defintetely not bought on ebay, (i would feel very uncomfortable putting my vehicle in the hands of an $8 set of coilovers)

Ha ha... i learned my lesson Dropzone on stock struts for over a year... killed my CV shafts..

Now i Have Eibach Prokit and KYB AGX... but the Tein Super street coilovers direct replacements are looking awful pretty to me right now... :grinyes:

But enough thread jacking...what was the topic again?:iceslolan

ebays no good for cars lol


Ebay is great for car parts.

If you cant pick out the bad from the good then you probably shouldent be working on a car. :2cents:

lol yea that is probably true. I have a TON of ebay parts that cost me a great deal less than normal, shit I got my header from some kids mom who grounded him from his car. $100 shipped
