^^I love the reasoning there.

The only experiences I've had with D2 coilovers were bad ones. I know that their quality has since gone up...but...still.

For the last sets of them that I've seen:


Friend A got them for his civic:
The damper knob seems to do whatever it wants. Turn it up and it seems to get softer. Turn it down a little, and it gets stiffer. Turn it a little more and it gets softer again. It's like pin the tail on the damper setting.

The ride really sucked.

Friend B got them for his civic:
They blew out after about a year or so.
The ride sucked...but he refused to admit it. Everyone else complained about the horrible ride.

If you've never had a NICE setup, you may not notice how much they suck, though.

Buddy club N+s are around the same price, I think. They usually get better reviews and seem to be better made.
