Default Skunkworks Coilovers....

Actually, adjustable springs, not coilovers. They are supposed to be just like the Comptechs, only not as expensive... like half the price.

A couple of friends who attended the SEMA show informed me that Skunkworks has developed an adj. spring kit for our cars. I've had the Skunkworks on my old Civic, and they are really nice, coupled with the Koni adj. shocks. (which btw should be coming out for our cars also)

Just wanted to know if anyone here has heard of this, can you verify? Thanks....

Why would you say that? Do you have any info on the springs compared to the Comptechs? Do you have experience with them? Or is this quote just your opinion?

By the way "high quality rice rocket junk" seems to me to be a contradictory statement

Hmm.. I've had Skunkworks springs on my Civic, I've never had problems with them. No sag, no nothing. Ride was good also.
