i dunno man --you get what you pay for. Ive heard people say they love egay springs..and i also hear egay spring horror stories. If you want to take the risk and are just going to aestetics then go for it. If i were you which, obviously, im not, i would get the tokico illumina coilovers. Its all set and ready to go..and you can adjust it...480.00. here i am giving suspension advice haha yea right

 

I wouldn't, but I'm me. Like Colt said, ya get what ya pay for.

 

I got 2 hatchbacks...one has ebay coilovers on it and the other has a set of aerospeed coilovers on it. I have never had a problem with the ebay coilovers but maybe I've just got lucky. The aerospeed ones I got are really good and fairly cheep. I guess it just depends on your budget.

 

i'd be very scared of those considering the buy it now price is $13.

 

well its cause right now my car has cut springs and all my shocks are blown so thats why i want to get some coilovers not some expensive ones either because im also going to get the shocks and i dont want to put the shocks on those cut springs thats why i was asking on those coil overs well which ones would be good not expensive ones either just some simple ones from ebay i though the ones i saw where good but then now you all got me thinking

 

i bought the ebay springs, didnt use the sleeves though, it dropped it about 4" i cant go anywhere without scraping, i have the most extreme camber kit put on and my tires are still off by 3 degrees, if your going to upgrade suspension please dont buy these, the first day i got them on, all four of my struts blew out. i will be buying the tokico illumina strut / lowering spring combo soon. I would ride on cut springs before i would ride on the ebay coilovers.

 

i dont know if i should get them its cause i would get the more expensive ones but i dont have that kind of money right now thats why i was asking and because my car right now the ride sucks all 4 blown shocks on cut springs just imagine how that feels thats why i was thinking that i would buy the shocks and put some of those coilovers for now till i get more money it will probably be a better ride and so i could raise my car a little more for now

 

if i were to install the coilover would i have to put that part to circled in red cause i remember messing with my friends coilover in an integra and he didnt have that part on and what is that part
[IMG][/IMG]

 

if your talking about the insert that is circled in red you dont have to put those on, but it will ride horrible, all of my 4 shocks are blown out right now, I would buy OEM until i could afford to buy good suspension if i was you, i ordered the ebay coilovers because i wanted a drop too, but it's not really worth it, do it right the first time and you will be happy

 

oh i see that part you are talking about now, the pic wasn't showing up for some reason, i didn't put those on when i put the springs on

 

they seem fine if all you want is a lowered ride..but they dont even give the spring rates so they cant be for performance..

those rubber things,i dont know what they're called but i installed them on mine dropzone,,they're alot better then the metal ones cause they dont squeak as much

 

im not looking for performance or anything like that on coil overs im just looking into the lowering
so what do u all think i should go with the first choice or the second choice and i also notice that from the 2 coilovers that i posted i dont know if you al will be able to see it looks like if the rings are more separated in the first and in the second one where pic is posted they look more closer why is that or is it just me

all of they 50$ ebay springs will be the same, if you really want to go that route, then buy the cheapest set and throw those on

 

Wouldnt let my life depend on them! But thats just me!

 

there are 2 sets of stock shocks with springs for the crx currently listed on ebay. why dont you buy those while you save the money to buy some quality stuff. one of the sets comes with some type of lowering springs

 

if the kid is looking on ebay for his susspension let him run the cheap ****, who cares he doesn't.

enjoy you're ebay coil overs man, nobody is gonna care, and if you're slapping on 50$ parts week after week, i'm sure nobody's gonna give 2 ***** ever.
