my cousin installed them in his mazdaspeed3 and they are horrible..they way too bouncy feels like a honda with cut springs....save your money and get better quality coils.

MSRP of $469 and a set of quality coilovers start at around $1500. How good do you think these really are and where did they cut corners?

IMO there are other options I'd probably explore first.

I know you saw the add in (insert popular tuner mag here) with the slammed 350Z Vert, but cut it out. You're not getting raceland cuz they're junk. The end. Ughhh.

I knew these were crap, but has anyone seen any legit reviews on the Z coilovers from them?
