never heard of em link??

with ryano on this one... the evo dosen't really need coil overs unless your going to spend some big bucks on em... unless you just wanted it for the drop... then you should have just gone with some swift or etc...

here's a review from evom.net
They are cheap coilovers that are garbage.

-The valving is going to be all over the place
-You'll be lucky if the shocks don't leak within a year
-The spring rates aren't well suited to an Evo
-The spring rates aren't going to be accurate to the advertised rate
-The bearings in the top plates are low quality
-The painted surfaces will chip and flake very easily(not durable)
-The metal used is low grade

the spring rate is completely off needs to be backwards

front 8kg rear 6kg.... needs to be back 8kg and fronts 6kg

i'd suggest canceling your order and waiting if money is an issue :-D but just my opinion test em out and let us know how they are :-D

They don't have a good rep in the 240sx world either. Megans would have been a better buy and probably around the same price. Either that or some Bilstein HD struts with some SWIFTs.

the gal ordered the coils already...

to me honestly any coilover out there is gonna be better than some spings and shocks...

sprins combo out there now is just too damn soft. and the response you get out of the coilover is waaay better than the softer springs.

Just put them in an the car sits just perfect. And they ride somuch better the the ome. They are alot stiffer and ride smooth and handles awnsome .

I'm glad you are satisfied with your purchase, but could you please use spell check more often? It hurts my head.

Nex made a name in the honda world.......One of the first coilover set that was really cheap. Buddy of mine had them on his IS300.....he liked them.

If you don't plan on doing any high performance driving, then I wouldn't worry too much about the brand name...if you're just looking for a nice stance, then you should be fine. As with most coilovers, the ride quality could be harsh for daily city driving.

Now if they look like they were jb welded and zip tied together, then :eek:
