anyone know where to get some cheap coilovers for the ae92

 

[REN69]

Look for Ksport coilovers, go to their site and find a distributor in your area.. other than that there aren't many AE92 coilovers out there. Ground Control makes a kit but they're sleeves which go over your current struts.

K-Sport FTW. 36-Way adjustable. Dampening control. Camber adjustment. Pillow ball mounts. 0" - 4" height adjustment. Best ones you're gonna find for the AE92, and cheaper than pretty much all of them.

K-Sport FTW

LMAO

If you think K-Sports are the best then you don't know jack. :disappoin

Had you done your research, then you would have discovered that JIC and Toda Racing also make coilovers for the AE92 with the option of custom spring rates hard enough to rattle your fillings out and make your kidneys bleed every time you hit a bump in the road.

There's a reason why K-Sports are priced cheaper.

Ahhahaa... no. Higher cost does not equal quality jack ass. Have you ever even seen K-Sports in person? No. Have you ever ridden in or driven a car with K-Sports? I highly doubt it. Had you taken your head out of your ass, you'd realize that I've actually had PERSONAL expierience with them, before you went mouthing off like you are just oh so smart. Do you have JIC's or Todas? No, you don't, you just like the pretty "JDM" names because thats what Import Tuner tells you to like. Your small IQ FTL.

What the hell are you talking about ricer? Have you ever heard the quote "you get what you pay for"?

Have you even owned a Ksport "coilover"?

I bought a pice of junk Ksport coilovers for my AE86 and all I can say is CRAP! Each damper was literally different in length and offered different damping force even at zero. Plus they started leaking after only 6 months.

The only thing these were good for was just the pretty looks. But overall a SHIT coilover. And I repeat SHIT!

 

[REN69]

Now now.. no need for arguing if you haven't really owned either brand. :nono:

I've driven Ksports before, they weren't too bad. For what you pay, I'd rather have them than a set of sleeves that would hit a bump and crack in half.

The Ksports are decently priced around what other coilover sets are going for, sure JIC and Toda make sets.. but try finding one in the US or Canada for a decent price.. or even at all.

So with all this said, what does one conclude with ? ive never ran coilovers before but im looking into them as i want more adjustability Mainly Camber !! my Apex/KYB setup is awesome for the street, but i feel the need for "More" on the track !

Doesnt D2 make a kit for the ae92 as well for around the same price as the Ksports ? anyone with any experience or Solid input on these ?

 

[REN69]

From what I hear from the Camry guys... D2 = :ugh3: + :yikes:

 

[jmaz87]

i've had k-sports for a year dunno why everybody bashes them so much... i've beaten the dog-shit outa them solid and the don't quit you just can't let them go dry like anything else on a car. properly maintained i don't even think ill need to re-gas them for another year if not 2!!!

Ill admit i've heard about older k-sports being defective but they have taking leaps to fix this and i stand by best bang for buck in an ae92 and one of my buddies has a WRX with my brother's TEIN Coilovers on and another friend with a 240sx has them as well... i still prefer the adjustablility of k-sports as well as availability of parts

lol Dam

 

[Flashmn]

All I can say is I love leaf springs, easy to lower and no change in spring rate Same with torsion bars, to lower just turn the adjustment bolt :lol::naughty:

 

[freakinbox]

yeah my truck has torsion bars in the front. But I have no urge to lower the truck as I like it high. Maybe put a small lift on it

yes...k-sports are good...for an entry level, well priced street setup that might see moderate track use...no i have not owned any of these. but you can't honestly believe the only difference between k-sports and toda racing is the price point. they have completely different objectives. i can garuantee that the price difference comes with research,testing, and track time. you do get what you pay for, especially when it comes to something like suspension. theres no need to start insulting people, express your point, but keep the rest to yourself.

I asked this question over @ club4ag here's the link,

And Dan apparently K-sport and D2 are made in the same factory over seas. I still might go for k-sport but if I can stop spending for a couple months mayby the JIC's are in the future.

:thumbup: quality thread.

for the record, im pretty sure DMS makes full coilover kits for the ae92-101-111 iirc (i know they make the '82s). but your looking at somewhere around $3500 entry level lol.
