I am in the market for a set of Coilover I have been researching for a few weeks now and all i seem to hear/ read about is how much BuddyClub, Tein, KW etc. are junk and everyone just gets them b/c of those three letters "JDM". Is BuddyClub a respectable coilover or is it just junk. Also I have been reading about the Apexi Coilover system. They seem to have good reviews. I am trying to order some b4 next friday. Kinda need them fast. So any help would be great.

 

For under 1000 dollars buddyclubs are an excellent choice. But good coilovers go for twice as much. Who says KW's are junk? ive heard and read nothing but good things about them. For a 1500 dollar budget KW variant 1's and/or GTmotoring would be my choice.

 

teins are not junk either.....whoever is saying this is retarded...the ones that are junk are megans, D2, and K sports...teins, buddy clubs, and KW are actually my personal top choices, bilstein is good as well

 

Some dick bag on S2Ki was going crazy on me for even bringing up the subject of BuddyClub. I really like the BC's i wish I could find some one that is running them on their S2 so I could see how the stance is going to be. Plus with the BC they are 15 way adjustable so its easier to feel the difference. Thanx guys

 

BC's are a good choice.

 

I am going to order the BuddyClubs Monday and I will post pics as soon as I get them on.

 

if i only had 1000 bc would be my choice also.

 

The ride is still really harsh on the BC Nspec + I would imagine the racing spec even worse. I would go with Koni/GC combo because of the lifetime warranty, customer service and pricing.

 

Megan, D2 and K sport = junk.

 

Stop listening to bad info.

KW and Tein are great. BC is good. Don't be fooled by how many adjustments are available. Just because they say 15 way, doesn't mean **** because they only good for a small adjustment range.

I run Koni/Ground Control (custom rates) and for the price, the are one of the best setups you can get. Plus you can have them rebuilt at several locations all across the USA. I would look into those.

 

I am looking to spend about 1200 just on coilovers. I have already ordered the Cusco Sway bar rear aswell as Spoon upper and under brace. I wish I could find some control arms and a Hardtop. Do you all know a good place to make these purchase these items. I have looked on hardtopguy.com and ebay, evasive, vivid and hop up but I am kinda worried about the hardtop not fitting right. For the money which place would be better to buy a hardtop from. Thanx for the info on the Coilovers.

 

buddy club!
