I just received my TopSpeed coilovers this weekend and would be more than happy to discuss the quality, installation, adjust-ability, and stance to anyone that's interested.

In short, the installation was EXTREMELY simple, everything matched up and fit perfect. The preload was easy to set, and the shocks are easily adjustable as well.

I would highly recommend these coilovers to anyone and would be more than willing to share pictures and further details with anyone that is contemplating.

All the best,

Adam

I personally recommend them based on installation, ease of adjust-ability, ride comfort, quality, the whole nine yards. I am 100% satisfied with the purchase of this setup.

I see. I misunderstood your previous post. I thought you were basing it on install only. They're brand new right? Report back after enough time to formulate a full review.

Not that I am aware of...but you should have no need to do so.

its the metal pillowball mounts, every coilover does it that has pillowball mounts, but for the bouncing, that is just damper quality and you get what you pay for.

Even if you replace it, it will come back, most pillowball mounts make noise, even on high end coilovers.

I've owned my topspeed pro1 coils over a year and they work great! I only have one mild issue with a minor rear clank noise on the right rear only when I hit bumps. It's not annoying at all, I can live with it. I actually had to raise my Z an 1" higher in the front I was bottoming out and rubbing my bottom frame no bueno!

I had mine for a couple months and just couldn't deal with the rear clank noise. Back on springs and the car feels a lot better.

They were alright for the first year or so. The clunking never went away or got much worse, but bonking suspension sure does make the car feel cheap. I'm coming up on.. I don't know, two years with them? Two struts have blown themselves dry and squeak on speed bumps now.

They felt good while they lasted, I just got what I paid for.
