  • Coil over Q's

    Just wanted to do a coilover setup that has good performance and is cheap, so I went and searched and I found Skeeters_Keepers coilovers setup and it seemed really good, so I followed it and found the kyb GR2 struts at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KYB-4...#ht_629wt_1167, and the 10" springs at: http://www.southwestspeed.com/?sec=v...Tall%20Springs, but I couldnt find the bodies and tophats, and I was wondering if I can use any type of coilover kit off ebay? for the bodies and tophats, will it fit?

    i know civic kits work and i also used a dropzone kit for a escort gt, i bet there all the same except they have different spring wieght or length, but to be safe i would just look for a civic/crx set or escort gt set to be safe.

        any update here? I looked into Monroe suspension and sourced all four struts with free shipping for about 10 bucks cheaper than the KYB's on ebay. Not only cheaper but the rear monroe's give a little bit more clearance for bigger tires. just wanted to put that out there...

            don't know much about it but I read they're longer and give more room in the rear. I just figure you might as well get the other two from the same site and save.

            do a search on here for "monroe" or "monroe coilover" and see what comes up.
