Flame if you want to but I "heard" you can use some of those crappy coilover sleeves with the ERS springs and you will come out much cheaper. Of course the sleeves have to be set for 2.5'' springs.
If you want broken perches.Not a single part of any of those sets are worth the money.I speak from experience and lemme tell you I have already f%cked up twice by getting crappy R1 coils and Eibach Prokits.Now Im getting the Hypercos wishing I wouldnt spent all that other money.$700 to get Hypercos in the end?Its not worth it.Listen to Chimmike and Kojima they know exactly what they are talking about.Also Reverm is one of the most knowledgable suspension posters on this forum.

Actually I have been around much longer than a lot of the people here AND I have had very serious suspension work done to my car (beam bending anyone) Im simply saying that I have heard of someone trying ERS with crappy ebay sleeves. Not saying it will work just saying what else I have seen.
Personally im getting a custom job done by the same guy that did my beam bending, but that's just between us

feel free to add.
you made ground control an exception to the crappy coil over list. would you recomend the ground control coil overs or are you just saying that they aren't crappy? i had planned on wrapping the ground control coil overs around a koni yellow shock and throwing that setup on my z32. should i have second thoughts and shop more for my coil overs/springs?
thanks

Why take the chance?
I have some serious suspension work done as well (first b14 with rear beam bent)...haha sorry couldn't resist.
We've all seen lots of things, just something I don't think should be recommended.. cheap crap is cheap crap no matter how you look at it.
I wence everytime I think of someone actually installing $49 coilovers, people have no idea how dangerous these things are..lol
I have come to the conclusion that 450f and 350r is the universal spring rate for crappo coilover sleeve kits. I have researched, arospeed, ractive, weapon r, dropzone and r1. They all use the same 450f and 350r. So I would only recommend these to people who have adjustable shocks and swaybars aswell as the correct weight distribution for these spring rates.
I know that sleeves are a great cheap option, but if you spend almost 500on some AGX shocks +300ish on sleeves...its almost beter to get a tein coilover suspension...don't they have one for our cars that is around 1200?
When a grisly killing spree in Vancouver left 15 women dead, PETA tried to purchase full-page ads in local papers suggesting that this carnage was no worse than the killing of animals for food.

The Tein basics are $700 and it has ride height adjustability.
Yes. I'd say that OBX is one of the major ripoff companies that do have good products, just because they get their designs from proven companies. However, I would say any coilover sleeve out there just don't cut it compared to an actual full coilover setup, even as basic as a set of Tein Basics or something similiar that have a complete replacement. The main thing you want to ask OBX is what spring rates are they running with their application and you want to match those rates to a proper damper.
