D2 Coilover systems
Hey guys, I did a search for D2 no results. I'm wondering if annyone on here is running this setup and what your thoughts might be. I'm looking for a new set of coilovers and it's between the D2's and the cusco's. Any thoughts 
Thanks,
-Ryan
here is a link to the D2 system, nice price too

very interesting considering D2 has a longer history in racing, touring cars, and rally than most other companies... not to mention the shocks are fully rebuildable, do any other companies offer fully rebuildable shocks for thier coilovers? since this will not be a trailer queen and Baltimore city is unforgiving, rebuildable shocks are a must have for me.
anyone have any links to storys or customers "bad quality" claims?

What do you guys think of the 8 piston 356mm d2 brakes? I am interested in buying them. What suspension do you really like than?

For the price that Tein offers, i would rather take my chance with them than D2. At least Tein offers coilovers that most of us can afford. If Cusco and JIC cost that much more, why not spend the money on advertising? Hm.......

I had the Tein Basic Coilovers for about a year. I sold them becuase I got a real good deal on some D2's. I must say, they were an improvement over the Tein's. The ride is a little more firm, but offers a greater stability around corners and more adjustability. For those who are commenting negatively, have you ever driven on them? Have you ever seen them? How do you know what they handle like?

I didn't have to own any of the suspension's I've tested to know in advance how they would behave, I could only hope that the review's penned were possibly done by someone that might actually know what to look for. I've been on suspension's that got review's by other's where they glowed even gushed how great they are, they have no clue what undampning is let alone what proper dynamics are all about.
