We've heard of them. There's a good reason why not too many people are using them.

Whats the reason people aren't using them cause they dont have 36 way dampering like k-sports? Your paying half the price of k-sports and people expect the same if not better... The Yonaka suspension is an excellent 1pc suspension for any honda street car or drag car. Ive seen the yonaka 1pc suspension allow a car to run 9's smoothly.

lol comparing them to the always shock blowing ksports isnt smart. ksports are ****. with bad customer service. i have never had yokanas but just because there cheap doesnt meant there ****. i've read good things, never heard of them blowing shocks or breaking. just because they have preset dampening doesnt meant there bad. they would be a good daily suspension choice i think.

The only reason I am comparing them is because ksports are one of the most popular 1pcs out there and I currently have a pair on my crv. I also have a set of Yonakas on my EK and I couldnt be more happier with them. They are great for street or strip even with the preset dampering. For someone with a budget go with Yonaka but for someone who wants a little bit of adjustability k-sports are also nice.... both are great options. Yonaka has top notch customer service so maybe if ksports customer service has fallen off then Yonaka should step in with an adjustable 1pc and maintain their excellent customer service to possibly take over ksports customes... who knows. give Yonaka a chance I did and I am pleased im gunna be ordering more stuff from them because its all high quality

Almost all coilovers will go down 4 inches. You won't be lowering your car that far I guarantee it.

Honestly I think the progress kit would be better 519 for yonaka or 579 for progress.

Not better for "dumping" your car probably. But certainly a more tested product from a company with a solid customer base and reputation.

Progress holds plenty of records with its products.

For most people with a clue that's an easy decision.
