Default any experience with Megan Racing Coilovers?????

interested in lowering car (just installed 18" wheels).

want a good quality coilover with height adjustment, damping increments, and pillow ball mounts.

Megan racing has all at a good cost around $900. this is compared to the Japanese brands (i.e. Hks, Tein, etc..)

however, do you pay for what you get...is Megan going to deliver?

I have them, they are fine.
Had a little problem with one, but it was because previous owner was careless.
Th driver's side rubber washer split, and it makes noise.
Gotta get a new one.
Besides that, what an awesome upgrade for this car.

Compared to stock shocks and lowering springs.
They control the car better.
If you don't like a bumpy ride, forget about performance handling.

alot of ppl have the megan coilovers, and i have yet to hear bad things about it..i have only heard good things.. but they do make the popping sound but all you have to do is grease the bearings on top and you will be fine.
