APC reputation??

So crew, do APC coilovers have a good rep? how does all 4 corners for $140 Canadian dollars sound?

After a second (&3rd, 4th, 5th!) opinion.

springs

go for arospeed coilovers,
I've heard they was one of the best,
lightweight,stiff-ride(nice handling),
when you hit a bump the tires jump not the car!
I'm not knockin' APC,they have good performance products
but they have better products out there,
plus the arospeeds are going for 80 bucks on ebay right now.

APC products + import ride =

Re: APC reputation??

1990civicdxhb not to be rude or mean but your ride is pretty ricey if that is your car in your signature.

As for buying cheap coilover's for suspension I would advise against it, get a set of lowering springs like nuespeed or another company, cheap coilovers like that have a bouncy ride and are just plain shitty IMO.

There was cosmo racing coilovers on my crx when I bought it I quickly took them off in place of neuspeed race springs and they made the ride sooo much better, even with stock struts.

Re: APC reputation??

APC = American Piece of Crap. A guy I knew bought the coilovers and they started to sag and ride like garbage after about 2 or 3 months of driving it every day. That's just one experience so who knows, maybe someone here has had them and they worked good.

Re: Re: APC reputation??

thanks for telling the truth but......


whats with the rice burner thing,
I spend alot of money on my car to make it look good & run good,
I get alot of "your car looks good" never no one making a statement about my car being a rice burner!
what do you think I buy this stuff to make my car look fast?
I buy it to make it look good & when I get finished I'ma be pulling in alot more trophys then what you'll be bringing in with the looks of your car!
this is my only car,daily driver,my 1st motor blew up,I gotta great deal on this motor so I installed it (one day),66k on the motor,maybe its a slow motor,but its slow motor or no job!,
I plan on putting a vtec in my car bored over,turbo all the great stuff,also i plan on putting air bags on it too plus wide kit by INCOME tax,I'm trying to go to the top with this car,I've had it for 3 years & plan on keepin' on,I'm trying to get it finished by the year 2006,thats paintjob & all,until then,I have a family,my money goes to different things,I dont have the cash to come out & hook the motor up,so I do what I can,if I'm a rice burner so I am,maybe thats what rice burners are,people who dont have enough money to drop what they got in the motor.

Re: APC reputation??

If you are planning on spending THAT much money on the body of your car...you could drop a sweet amount into your engine and have a fast lil fucker.

Re: APC reputation??

And are you talking about an air ride suspension...or putting air bags inside, like in your steering wheel and dash?
