anyone heard anything about these or use them. They are on many forums, but not here. Would like to hear some reviews from HT members.

this is there site.

http://www.meisterr.com/

 

Looks like junk to me. Never heard of them. Site is kind of sketchy, so is the product description. And the spring rates, only one is mentioned per setup. I assume the front and rear are the same?

They've got many indications of being a shoddy product.

What's your budget? Get something trustworthy.

 

EK9forever: I have only heard good things about these coilovers on various forums and various cars. I don't see anything "shady" about there site. Im not really looking for a budget coilover system, but im also not looking for suspension thats out of my driving skills. Im currently running the Progress CS2 coilovers with 350fr 350r spring rates and i feel its a little soft up front. im looking for a 8kg/mm front and 6kg/mm rear (450frnt 336rear) I was looking into the the koni yellow/GC Combo with custom spring rates but i hear these spring rates are to aggressive for the konis. I hear people swear by PIC, but have never rode on a set personally.

 

People on ITR-DC2.com run them and say they are good.

 

yea i saw a couple reviews from that site. thank you

 

I hear and read Yellows support 500, who says those rates (450/336) are too aggressive for yellows? I've never heard that they can't handle 450?...

You know how much that exchange rate works out to be right? Go for something that's in the sates, shipping alone will probably be ridiculous.

 

yes im aware of the exchange rate. it comes out to about a grand. What attracts me about these over koni/gc is that its a true coilover rather than sleeve and shock. I didn't make this post to look down on any product, but to broaden our suspension choices.

 

I was just letting you be know that your original choice of choosing Koni/GC w/custom spring rates is the way to go IMHO. I understand what your saying about broadening suspension choices. However, if its not broken then don't fix it right? We all know Koni/GC is the best $1000 suspension choice at this point.

I'll still never understand why people feel that a "true" coilover is that better then a sleeve and shock.

To each their own though, buy a set and let us know how they work out!

 

warranty? I have seen the dyno charts and they actually look pretty good. BTW why don't you just buy new springs for your CS-2's? According to Progress those shocks can handle up to 850lbs. and Koni's are warranted up to 500lbs. I believe.

 

the warranty on the Meister R coilovers is 1 year, and from reading from other forums, these guys are honest. Stock sohc dx: I think your talking about the Progress CS 1 series coilovers that can handle higher spring rates. I have the bottom tier series 2. I would really like to try out 500/400lbs, but well see.

 

I wouldn't gamble with $1k and 1 year warranty with an overseas product.

 

What's the advantage in having a full coil-over compared to a spring/shock setup? No one has ever been able to tell me why with any level of competence.
