K Sport/D2 generic coilovers that like to snap. Go MCA or springs + dampers (e.g. STi springs + KYB or Koni dampers)

In the same basket, same with yellowspeed or whatever on ebay
You get what you pay for


It depends on what you can tolerate or how much you value you and your passengers' lives :p

?????????? not everything made in taiwan is rubbish - hell even chinese stuff is getting better these days. sure has become a more expensive country to buy from (importing experience)

I have the XYZ and bought them on the Gold coast - couldnt be happier. just ensure you select a spring rate you are happy with - think they were 9kg front and rear standard which i changed to 8 and have on about 7 back from softest setting being wifes daily. easy twist of the knob firms it up for spirited driving

I didn't say everything made in Taiwan is rubbish. E.g. D2/KSport/ATTKD/etc brake kits are decent and survive track days.

Like I said, it depends on what you can tolerate. After driving my friend's Evo8 with MCA Blues, I wouldn't bother with anything else unless I'm desperate (like I was and threw second hand Bilstein in my car).

I had K Sport coilovers in my Gen 3 and they were harsh as and pretty sure they got bent a bit after a while. Like others have said, I'd recommend saving a little more and paying for something with a better rep
