EBAY Coilovers???
Has anyone bought some coilovers from ebay? What are they like? Stiff, bouncy, smooth ride etc..... Cause I want some really stiff springs and I was just wondering if the springs from Ebay were even stiff.

I've got dropzone coilovers, haven't installed 'em yet but there rated 450/350. They quality seems alright but I'm gonna use good struts so it should be alright.

Thanks for the warning. I think I'll try the Tom's see how those are. Until I get the money saved up for the JIC coilovers.

whatever you do dont buy the matrix or r-1 coilovers, they bounce like heck.... i have two 4th gen hatchs, one w/ r-1 coilovers and this one with skunk2 coilovers.... and the skunk2 coilovers are smooth compared to the crappy r-1, i've been in a car w/ matrix coilovers and they are just as bad as the r-1, i dont know about them other brands... but i'd assume that if they are under 100 w/o s/h, then they're probably gonna be bouncy, unless you compensate for them w/ real good struts like tokicos or something.

suspension is the worst place to try and save some money. would a marathon runner wear cheap $10.00 dress shoes from a race?
Just cause it looks like a race car doesnt mean it drives like one
