What coilover kit do you recommend for my 98' gs-r. Need to drop my car soon.

 

skunk2 or groundcontrol seem to be the popular kit. or if you want a REAL coilover kit go with TEIN or H&R and i think Neuspeed has a nice one too.

 

NEVER use "fake" coilovers like Skunk2's or Ground Control. The sleeves on these are known to split open at the bottom and cause A LOT of damage to the suspension itself especially if the car is lowered more then 3 inches.

We recommend either a standard lowering spring AND high performance shock combo or true coilovers like the Tanabe, Tein, or H&R.

 

H&R Full Coilovers...I LOVE THEM!!!

 

What do real "coilovers" cost? I was going to get GC coilovers for my 1.5 in. drop, this is the first bad stuff I've heard about them...

 

Real coilovers cost around $800.00 and up. It's a high price to pay, but worth every last penny.

 

I got a great deal on mine for $800, but the retail on them is $1,500

 

TEIN TypeHA coilovers.... Up until now, I still think that the TEINs are the best mod I've ever done to both of my cars.

 

i wouldnt say NEVER use them. they work fine when installed properly. ive had my skunkworks (when skunk2 was called that) ever since they first came out. ive had absolutely no trouble at all with them.

 

This guy is just trying to sell some full coilovers
