Default Anyone know about Apexi World Sport Coilovers?

I just came upon them on ebay and they were selling for about $575 brand new which I thought was a bargain. The only problem is that not too many people own a set or know much about them. Can someone give me some insight on this?

i have used these coilovers before. They provide a very decent and smooth ride. Do not look for performance in these because you won't get it. Its more like a daily-driven coilover.

what? the spring rate is stiffer than tein SS for your referrence.

there's like 15 piece for each strut, 2 piece bumpstop, alot of little parts. minus the missing top hat, they are very "complete" coilover.

the reason they are not the best racing spring in the world is because there's N'1, which have no application for accord.

cliff: they are great setup for street with weekend track user, they ride more on the harsh side if you have spring set up before.


I have a set for sale as we speak, anyone need a 98-02 WS coil for cheap?

Im running a set on my V6. The ride is really stiff but I just came off of the Tein S-techs with KYB Gr-2's. So give or take.

A lot of people prefer these over the Tein SS if you wanna weekend race. Only thing the Tein has over it is the damper adjustment. Overall quality is good and IMHO its the best deal out there. They were discontinued so thats why such a cheap price. Jump on while you still can.

Yeah at 9kg in the front and 4kg in the rear. It maybe stiffer but only in the front. Its softer than the teins in the rear. On the track to me it leans too much.

Don't get me wrong though, when i had them i loved them alot. I've also seen people be very sucessful with these in autox using custom eibach ers springs.
