They would work, but they are really shitty. Get some good springs, or just save up for some real coilovers.

I used to sell lots of dropzone coil overs and I think that basicly most of the generic brand coil overs are pretty much equal in quality.

There are some that are real ****. DZ coilovers are pretty good for the amounmt of money you payfor them. There were some shops that perfered to only use DZ coilovers for thier customers that wanted a cheap drop.

I believe the part number for your app is DZ1001

If you don't want to spend too much money on lowering your car, just get a set of springs.

Get skunks. I have had both dropzone and skunks. The dropzones are crap. Im sure if you look you can find them for a decent price somewhere.

If you like a rough ride and bounce on every bump, by all means go with cheap coil overs. If you want cheap get some regular drop springs from like sprint or progress. I sell them for 140 shipped.

gc/koni is tight, but not the 65 bux he's wanting to spend on it. BTW. Wholesale on cheapy ebay coilover is only 30 bucks. LET ME ASK YOU THIS. is your car and your LIFE worth only 30 Bucks?

I had ground controls on my other car, and with some good struts (koni yellows) the ride was pretty good. I would only do cheap coilovers if you're not going to cheap out on the struts.

For my 2 I had to get real coilovers because of the way the suspension is set up, there are no cheap brands. I got JIC magic SF-1's used which are great track coilovers, but are a little stiff for the street (they're height but not damper adjustable).

IMHO don't cheap out on your suspension, its something you deal with EVERY single time you get in your car.
