Good day! I live in Russia, I have a Toyota Altezza car, an analogue of your Lexus IS 300, I have Coilovers, from Japan, They have already passed 100k, maybe more, I won’t say for sure, it costs about $ 150-250 to service them, so I’m thinking , over buying just such Chinese coilovers, I've been watching this video for 1 year now, what do you say, maybe you still ride them !? And will they survive on my rear-wheel drive car, which sometimes likes to drift a little around town! Thank you very much for your review, so far I have not found anything else, I am waiting for your reply! Thanks!

@GarageBuiltHondas 2 года назад

I'd recommend rebuilding yours if it's less expenses than buying a new set, especially if you already enjoy how yours perform. Sounds like you've had them for a long time too so you could count on them lasting a long time again. That's the route I would go.

@GarageBuiltHondas 4 года назад

Did you ever order a set of springs/coils for your setup?

@Busydadgarage717 4 года назад

I have Skunk2 springs and will be extending my top hats to be a better fit for stock struts. My wife ended up having a major health issue related to her pregnancy, so we ended up spending a week in the hospital. Both she and our new son are safe, just a huge pause to time and funds for the time being. Once our boy comes home, I will resume work. Till then, I just watch your channel to stay calm and sane! Thanks for what you do!

@unyen3288 3 года назад

Thanks for making this review. Not planning on using them for the track but just to add a little bit of low to my daily driver. These seem like a good coilover for people that don't want to spend half of their car's value on some nice coils.

My rear driver side leaked out after about a year (12,000 miles I think) in SoCal daily all street. I have the older version with out the adjustable damper, Even with that said I wouldn't complain. They still feels great and for the price, I get what I paid for.

@GarageBuiltHondas 4 года назад

Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully they can create a better damper in the future.

@efboiz5302 4 года назад

Ive got around 5-6k of daily driving on my set now. After I replaced the shock that was leaking I cant say Ive had any issues. Honestly like em alot compared to my beat to shit tockio blues and skunk2 sleeves. *IF* you can get a set that wont leak, I dont see why you would ever need anything more expensive for a daily. Big if though.

@robertsothmann8110 3 года назад

On a double wishbone system, the shock shaft only receives vertical plane forces (plunging in and out). On a Macpherson kind of system there are high lateral loads as well. I'd bet that cheaper companies have more issues with cars like a DC5 than a DC2.

@spiffydudex 4 года назад

I did a 14 hour Enduro in November with these coil-overs after your initial review. They are great, cheap coil-overs. For harder racing applications, the spring rates are a little too soft. I'm currently running a Civic Wagon that has been stripped and gutted and installed a 22 gallon fuel cell in the passenger area directly above the rear wheels and forward. The time for the weight to transfer and load the coil before accelerating in the turn is monstrous. I may run one more enduro on them but I will be looking for a stiffer setup. We do not have a rear Sway/Traction bar installed though as we need to custom fab mounts for ours.

Just saw these, my bad. After seeing other videos and reading how they're too stiff/bouncy and can blow out.. I decided to go with a Vogtland spring/strut kit, and Vogtland makes a fantastic product. Our potholes up here would wreck these maxpeedingrods. Or your alignment. Sorry to disappoint. If you can make sure you have preload no matter what you purchase. Don't buy koni orange struts and lowering springs. Trust me.

I have the maxspeeding adjustable coiloverS, gsr front sway bar, itr rear say bar, full energy bushing kit on my 93 coupe. They work great had them for about three months. Only things I would say they could improve is the spring isolator bushing is kinda soft on the top. Also the fronts have a weird lower rubber ring that kinda just falls apart so I removed it. Also the shock adjustment knobs could have a better feel as the can be hard to tell the clicks. I made sure all my preload was equal and they ride pretty good. Also I just used the ef front forks on my ej2 so I didn’t have to use the metal sleeve. I daily my car on them and love them so far

I'd like to consider these with my tire/wheel setup? Thanks~!

@GarageBuiltHondas 2 года назад

Absolutely

@98dc2gsr575 4 года назад

I have a set of these on my FG2 and couldn't be happier. Have a set of Twin Flex Z on my 99 Integra and I feel these are every bit as good. They have about a year or 2 of use now here in the Appalachian Mountains of WV seeing road salt and really rough roads every now and again and they have held up great. I have always been a fan of Tein's Flex Z set up but these cam with my FG2 and I'm kind of digging them. Not bouncy at all. Tight and pretty crisp. I jva belittle to no body roll in curves. We have some pretty intensely windy roads out here and they hold up great. IF I have to replace these I will say I am going with a set of Tein buuuuuuut these still rock for now hahaha.

Just not ready to spend 1k on suspension for my daily driving to work miata.

@GarageBuiltHondas 3 года назад

I think so. Most coilovers don't respond well to being slammed, that's not what they are intended for. I don't think you'll have an issue, a good ride height usually lengthens the life of all coilovers. Bumping around being slammed puts the coilovers through excessive work which I believe is what they fail quickly.

@Dayday888. 4 года назад

Don’t put these on your daily driver if you value your spine, lol. I’ve got them on my Mazda 323 Astina, and Aussie streets, particularly in smaller towns are, let’s just say, less than perfect. They’re well made, but it seems just for track. Mine have no dampening adjustments either.

@GarageBuiltHondas 4 года назад

Thanks for the input!! Do you think the dampening adjustable ones would have helped in your case?

@Dayday888. 4 года назад

Garage Built Hondas, I don’t know, but I don’t think they are available. They didn’t seem to have that option when I was searching. I even put 60kg of sandbags in the back, no change though. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’ll just have to start racing it lol.

Hey man I can’t find 88-91 civic/crx coilovers on their site. They link you posted takes me to just the home page. I picked up a ef hatch for my next track build and honestly wanted to try these for shits and giggles since it’s on 240k mile stock struts/springs. If I hate them my buddy is gonna buy them and I’ll upgrade to something higher end. Thanks for any help locating where to buy a set of these from.

coilovers de mala calidad, es dinero a la basura y sin garantia.

@jaybelurkin 4 года назад

How low can they go? They list every other spec but dont list how low they can actually go. For that reason alone I'm thinking about buying Raceland coilovers instead. I know Raceland is more expensive, but at least they give me the info I need before I decide to make the purchase.

@GarageBuiltHondas 4 года назад

Probably not as low as Raceland. When I first installed them the rear was pretty low and it still had more room to go. The front don't go as low as the rear.

@@GarageBuiltHondas think it comes down in a big way to the rigid camber plates on the maxspeeding.... Racelands on the 323is are on stock rubber plates.... We do not track the cars tho...

In the begining of the video youre front caster is a bit much " the wheel is more to the rear" adjusting that will help your understeer since the wheel base is already pretty short a little is a big difference
