Default NEO MOTORSPORTS FULL COILOVER REVIEW

Hey everyone this is a feedback on the company Neo motorsports. I am the owner of a ek hatch all ek4 out and I circuit the car N daily drive it. I was running p.I.c coilover 12k front 10k rears they were good and I really enjoyed them but I wanted to go with something different so I went with buddyclubs they were good aswell felt the same as the p.I.c coilovers soo neo motorsports came up and I thought I would give them a try. So I ended up getting a set I won't lie I had second thoughts about the company as they were new at the time. But need I need to say I am impressed and blown away with how phenomenal they are balanced between daily driver to straight stiff for aggressive driving and for drag. So if you guys are looking for full coilover setup I recommend you try neo motorsports o and I forgot they are a twin. Tube design not mono-tube like every other popular company.

If I were to rate this suspension it would be a 10 reasons they go slammed handle extremely well the customer service for. Company. Is by far. The best I've delt with and the warranty is lifetime on all the collars and 1 year on the struts.
And for people who say you can't be slammed and ride smooth not the case with neos my gf has d size **** if it was uncomfortable she would tell me believe it haha

Below. Is pictures of my car to show you the height and I can. Go about a inch n a quarter lower at the front and rear is about. The same











NEO Blue Systems was developed to offer a sporty feel and aggressive stance for both aesthetics and daily driving pleasure.

The BLUE features:
- Twin-tube design
- Nitrogen gas insert
- X-Large 25 mm piston diameter
- Ride height adjustable via lower mount
- Spring preload adjustable
- Aluminum alloy shock mounts (forged or extruded depending on application)
- Full-length dust boots
- Fully rebuildable
- 1-year manufacturers defect warranty





NEO Purple coil-over kit was designed to bring race car level adjustability down to
your everyday road vehicle. It features all the advantages of the Blue system while
including the shock stiffness adjustability of a Green system. Since our Purple system
does not include the pillow ball upper mount, it still offers a higher level of road
comfort while capable of aggressive cornering.

The NEO Purple series feature:
- Steel damper construction
- Twin-tube design
- Nitrogen gas insert
- 12 dampening settings
- Massive 30 mm piston diameter
- Ride height adjustable via lower mount
- Spring pre-load adjustable.
- Aluminum alloy shock mounts (forged or extruded depending on application)
- Fully rebuild-able
- 1-year manufacturers defect warranty




NEO Green coil-over kit was engineered for improved handling both on and off the track.
The shortened shell case allows for maximum piston stroke which translates to a better ride
at lower ride height and an increase in grip. The NEO Green systems are also equipped with
a pillow ball upper mount. The pillow ball upper mount offers an increase in steering feel
as well as upper camber adjustment for strut type vehicles.

The NEO Green series feature:
- Steel damper construction
- Twin-tube design
- Nitrogen gas insert
- 12 dampening settings
- Massive 30 mm piston diameter
- Shortened shock body for lowered ride heights
- Ride height adjustable via lower mount
- Spring pre-load adjustable.
- Camber adjustable via upper mount (on most applications)
- Aluminum alloy shock mounts construction (forged or extruded depending on applications)
- Fully rebuild-able
- 1-year manufacturers defect warranty

Indeed. Nothing objective or useful at all.

No mention of shock valving, or even perception of shock valving. No mention of spring rates.

Mention of a twin tube design vs. a montube, but no explanation of why either could be better or even why the OP has a preference on it.

Topped off with an impossible claim of being able to ride smooth slammed.

Lastly, pics of claimed GF or it didn't happen.

It bothers me when people do this, but when a company does there should be consequences.

These shocks/struts apparently offer adjustable wetness.

Shocks provide damping. A garden hose provides dampening.

You are completely correct. Most of us do not like new companies because they are typically fly by night opperations that dissappear as quickly as they showed up. They don't really give a **** about the people buying their product. All they care about is pushing their product and making as much as they can before people figure out that it is just another cheaply made crappy chinese/tiawanese product ordered in mass quantities in yet another color different from what is already out there.

Respect has to be earned. Koni has been around for a LONG time. They have an awesome product at a great price out there for those of us that daily drive, those of us that track ocassionally, and those of us that have race only vehicles. Pleae note I'm not saying Koni is the only company that puts out a good product. It's mind boggling that people still support brands such as k-sport, d2, skunk2, F&F, Stance, ect.

I guess now a days color and shinyness are more important than overall experience, great prices, and a lifetime warranty to boot.

No, I do not work for Koni. I support Koni products because of the one issue I've ever had with one of their products, they were easy to get a hold of and took care of it no questions asked.
