I dunno about the coilovers, but their springs are crap. Ask kbrassfi about dropzone, he'll put in a nice word for them

If you invest in coilovers, just make sure you know the spring rates! VERY IMPORTANT!! Alot of these E-bay and no-name coilovers don't tell you spring rates, and are made from poor quality parts. Good luck on your search.

i had it tooo!!!......ur better off with decals then these springs.....the springs are way too soft..... if ur lookin for coil overs go with ground control and u need to get better shocks also like kyb agx.....but it you're gonna get get the shocks and the coils, u might as well look into TEIN BASICS.....the struts are already shortened as well as the shocks in the rear so you'll get good wheel travel and they come with the springs...
kyb agx w/ ground control coilover kit........estimated $800
TEIN BASIC damper kit.....$890

Yeah, I would recommend the GCs. I dont know much about the Dropzone coilovers, but it seems that there are a couple of people here who dont like them.

If your trying to get coilovers for a cheap price, check out the classified section.

And this is in the wrong section. Should be in suspension.

Go with Ground Control and KYB AGX's. I just installed my set up this weekend and I am very happy. I also got the ME rear mounts for the rear to gain some travel. Only thing I forgot is that on the B14's you can use the front struts for a B13 to gain an inch of travel. Don't waste your money on Dropzone. The GC set up uses Eibach racing springs. If you go to P-S-T.com you can get AGX's fro 389 shipped. The Coilover will cost about 400. Also, if you have lowering springs on already for can install the coilovers yourself. All you will need is a 1/2" breaker bar and a 17mm deep socket to get the steering knuckle bolts off. Another tip is to go to the dealer and get all new nts & bolts for the suspension cause I stripped some of mine while doing the install so I replaced everything all the way around. Good Luck
