Drop Zone Coilovers?
Drop Zone Coilovers?
I want to drop my car and these are cheaper than some springs. The set for the coilovers is 134. It can go from 0-4inch drop not that ill go that low. Does anyone have an opinion about these coilovers from DROP ZONE or heard anything about them.
im not getting these cause of there performance even i think it would be better than stock. i nned new struts in the back n e way. I want thhese for little performance and the look it will give my car. only dropping it like 2-3 inches.

Stay Away
I had the exact set of springs are are talking about and I had to change back to stock after 20,000 miles and buy all new shocks because they were ruined. Also the ride was miserable!!!!

NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER in my life have i seen a sprig coil actualy break into multiple pieces, its hard enough trying to cut them with power tool, those suckers are strong. i guess tose dropezones are cheaply made, probably dont even meet the standards of other springs.
what kinda drop do you want, do you want coilovers so you can adjust the height or do you want them so you can perminantly set them at a height lower than what other aftermarket springs are getting? i ask cause my friend got his coil overs jus cause he wanted a 2.5 drop but there were no springs for that low a drop, he got coil overs and set them aprox to 2.7 inch and left em like that. are you lookin to adjust the height? if not tein s-tech has a good drop and much better quality.

First things first avoid the dropzones the are horrible.
You could buy the GC Coilover kit, but I would go find a set of the APC coilovers for a 96-00 civic. They are 145$ and they come with 450lb springs. The only thing you have to do is hone the inside of the front set of sleves. They need like 2mm more clearance. But other than that it only took me a day to do the full install. If you want pics of what they look like I can email them to you just pm me. If you have any more questions feel free to ask the only thing I do have to say is dont go any lower than like 2.25 or 2.5in cause any lower than that and you run into problems like me with new CV's every 6 months or worn tires every 3-5 months. And by the way IM at around a 3in drop.
