    They need to be set up right… if you don’t know how to set pre-load and the travel of your shocks if you have shocks in the rear have someone else install them.

    All coilovers are mostly made in the same factory somewhere in China they just slap different name on it

  • @briankreitner1873
    @briankreitner1873 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Let me give a better explanation of what happened. Ebay was one of the first e-commerce sites that really took off and they didn't originally have fees for posting. Once companies realized there was a market online to sell their products, they mostly moved off Ebay and launched their own e-commerce functions to their own websites. This was in the early 2000's. Also at this time many parts and components were being made overseas, like China, Thailand, Indonesia.... So around 2006-2007 Ebay was opened up to international commerce. So some of these overseas shops that were making the components for your big name suspension kits, started marketing their own kits using various pieces from the parts bins they had and making their own kits/ companies. This is where the "Ebay coilover" comes from. This is also where the "Wishlist Apple watch" comes from. There are a millions of examples of things like this. Why do you think there has been so many copyright and patent law claims in recent history. Overseas manufacturing seemed like a good idea in the 80's and 90's before e-commerce really became a thing. But now that shop halfway around the world is not your employee, they're your competitor. Now I'm not saying that they are a direct competitor for the knowledgeable consumer but they can attack that "bottom line" type consumer. And since, in the world of auto parts once it's installed you can't return, you have questionable products hitting the market.

    I had people who got them to put on daily drivers. They are great for lowering but don’t expect a soft ride. They are great for track use. If your looking to lower your car but keep ride quality go for lowering springs or higher end coils overs. The max speeding rods last a good time my friend has them on his focus and 2 1/2 years later they still ride good however the paint is cheap and will chip off easy. Don’t go for the 200$ one get the 300$ with adjustable dampener. Once you get them the first week will be horrible but once you break them in the will get better. And before install them put anti seize on it and lube around the top so it doesn’t clunk or squeak. I was gonna put them on my 05 wrx but I don’t track it I daily drive it so please consider lowering springs if you care about ride quality. And to those people saying it’s junk you never owned them nor tested them. Do your research before you spread misinformation about them.

    • @80s_Boombox_Collector
      @80s_Boombox_Collector 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Ebay has so many made-up brands of coilovers. The same Chinese factory making 20 different fake brands. Sorry but $500 isn't going to get you a good set of coilovers. Their damper valving will be poor quality, and they probably have never been track-tested by anyone with real experience. Some of them don't even tell you what the spring rate is, much less allow you to choose your own rates.

      80's Boombox Collector that’s why it’s called “budget” and I bought race land before and Max speeding rods befor to test. Pretty similar but the eBay ones have cheaper paint and you will have to lube them up before installing. And I used them for my Subaru Outback for track use and the work great for the price. Don’t expect them to be as good as 500+ coils your trying to compare. Next time actually buy the product and test it out before you spread out misinformation you boomer.

    fast forward to when i picked up my second eg, they have fuction and form type 1's. little bit more expensive coil over and let me fucking tell you something, comparing a name brand ike f&f to an ebay brand was just hilarious. the ride quality was soft enough that i didnt have to look like a drunk driver dodging every pot hole in the ground, the corners were tight enough to hold balance through them, the ride feels like stock height, and get this, THEY HAVENT SIEZED up since having them on there for 5 years lmao.

      So many people don't even know what's inside a coilover or how it works. So they don't understand why some coilovers are better than another. You really have to learn how they're built and what's inside, how the valving works, and you should analyze the company literature to see how much experience they have, whether they've track-tested them on each car they sell it for, and how many racers use them and vouch for them. The best companies don't charge $2K+ for their coilovers just because of the brand name, they do it because it's a high quality piece of gear that costs a lot to make.

      Reighner Gargantos people like you are the opposite of what the car community stands for. it’s sad really. building and customizing cars is something that brings people together for events, competitions, photo shoots, and so much more. i’ve made so many friends and had so many good memories because of my car and the community around cars. I’ve never made enough money to buy the best parts or the nicest car. But it doesn’t matter. It’s about taking something and putting time, money, blood, sweat, tears, hatred, and passion into it to make a car into what you envision and then sharing what you made with other enthusiasts. A car full of eBay parts isn’t worthless because of that. It’s just balling on a budget because it’s an expensive hobby that everyone can be a part of, not just the people who make stupid amounts of money. Obviously parts from places like eBay are lower quality, but saying “don’t build a car at all” is pathetic. I’d rather build a shitbox with cheap parts and love the fuck out of it than be too scared of entitled people like you crushing my project because i can’t afford the best. Sad.

When you buy cheap parts, you take a risk that they'll either break in a short period of time, or you won't like the way it performs. That's why you can't buy stuff on price alone. I mean people spend hours researching which phone to buy, and they rarely buy the cheapest one, so why can't that be true for coilovers too?

      80's Boombox Collector I understand what you’re point is, but I don’t think the analogy applies. A phone is something you use everyday for school, work, the internet, social media, texting etc. It’s essential for most people’s daily lives. Coilovers aren’t essential for daily lives. Having a custom car isn’t essential, it’s a hobby/ passion. So spending $1,000 on a new phone that i’m gonna use every single day for hours and hours and get countless utility out of isn’t the same as spending $1,000 on a suspension for my 2001 Z3 just so I can sit a few inches lower and take corners a little harder. But budget setups that are more affordable for my income and can still get me to that stance i’m looking for just makes sense for a kid in my position

    I got the yellow maxpeedrods for my Mazda 3. Yes, they’re stiff but that’s what I preferred especially if my main goal is just lowering my car without the fear of bottoming out.
    That’s the pro side of the coilovers, the con side is the horrible built coil overs.
    I had experienced snapped end links because the front coilovers was actually spinning around in the knuckle. The company that made these coilovers didn’t take that into account.
    Also, I had a bad set. It would make noise when turning the wheel. Like banjo strings plunking.
    The customer service behind the coilovers is trash. Tried to get in contact with someone about the problems, no response... ever.
    If you’re tight on cash, just want to lower your car, doesn’t track your car, think luck is on your side to get a set with no problems, can fix a problem with the coilovers if you do happen to run across them, then I would get them. From my experience, it’s a hard NO.

    I can buy 10 sets of cheap coilovers with 2years warranty each for the same price as one expensive set. Of course, the expensive ones are better, but id say ebay coils are definitely worth their price. I had cheap coils on my first car (mk5 gti) and never ran into any issues with it. Adjustability was great, and they even installed them for me for only 40 euros extra (they weren't technically ebay coilovers since I didnt get them on ebay, but they are the same price and quality as ebay ones). If you're on a tight budget, or your car just isn't worth expensive coilovers I dont see how you could go wrong, especially if they offer two year warranty. 200 bucks for 2 years guaranteed seems like an absolute steal to me.

    I ran racelands on my 7th gen civic , they were ok for a little less then a year. Went with the good ol ebay maxspeeding rods coilovers. I liked the overall design and set up alot better then the Racelands. Ended up using the Raceland springs on the Ebay coilovers. It's the best of both worlds, better ride, able to lower it where I wanted

      occupo then buy lowering springs ... lowering springs > cheap coils or I believe the Tein street basis z coils are like 500-700$ and their apparently a solid choice you can look into that, H&R springs are a solid choice too my bud has a 370z on h&r springs and it rides real nice
