OBX coilovers anyone?
Well I recently acquired OBX coilovers and am wondering if anyone has experience with these. I searched and found nothing so any help would be appreciated. Thanks

They are okay quality. Springs made by different companies don't make that big of a difference. Eibach, H&R, OBX, Sprint, MaxSpeed are all very similar. What matter most are the struts.

Hope that help you! Happy overclocking!

The owner of that Supra "overclocked" his Supra to 400hp.

From factory it's more like a rubbercompound /metel underneath kinda thing. Aftermarket sometimes metel or a soft compound on top to soak up road noise.
