Re: **Are These For REAL??** (Borasix)

I would avoid those just from the name - doesn't scream quality.

they are coilovers. however, they are not a 1 piece coilover. they are 2 piece (meaning a seperate shock from the spring/threaded collar).
they however aren't good coilovers.

Those are what all the honda guys think are real coilovers, those are a threaded perch that go onto a strut for the front of the cars. A lot the honda guys(always with the exception of the few) have these on stock struts and then slam it. At work all the time people almost crap themselves when I tell them what I paid for coilovers and then they tell me about there drop zone threaded springs. Ride in a car with a setup like this and then you will realize that you would be better off putting this $100 in the toilet bowl and flushing. The ride is bouncy and its just not worth it when so many coilovers are available for our cars.

Anyone know some good adjustable springs to match with my Koni Yellows? I want to adjust height but don't want to dump the yellows.

the best adjustable springs as far as I know are probably Ground Control, they use Eibach springs
