megan racing springs??
 
hey guys,

i was looking thru listings in ebay for springs for my 02 PRO5, and i came across a couple of listing that they are selling Megan Racing Springs, i just wanted to know if anyone has already tried them yet or not.. if not i will still go with the TEIN-S springs.

any thoughts??

thanks

whoa....thatsa good price!! too bad I won't buy them. There is too much of a drop for me. I'd need a camber kit and a new bumper!

hey centless...are you going with the TEIN's then?

I am very interested in those Megan springs.
Anyone else have experience with these?

Thanks, Brad.

you get what you pay for, and i would never trust those megan springs. Buy either the teins or eibachs(my choice) b/c you know they are top quality and won't let you down. If you get bad springs it could start a world of hurt on your suspension..

zoom_two> yes i am going defineatly with the TEIN-S springs, i actually ordered them yesterday from adventon, i won't be able to hook them up until vacation on the first week of august, i'm leaning away from the megan springs is becuase i absolutely cannot find any infomation on anyone who has used these springs, and i don't want just to buy crap springs and later be sorry.

I will defineatly have pictures from my car, i was doing some research yesterday on those springs, the website from TEIN itself has pictures of how the car looks when its dropped. Also, most vendors say that the springs drop 2" both front and back, but the manufacture states otherwise, TEIN-S F 1.77" R 1.5".

i think you also asked me about some fog light issue, and yes, the Optilux 2500 would work.. thats coming soon also.

take care,
-Denham

One of the reasons I didn't buy the Teins is because I was under the impression that the drop was 2" all around also...didn't want to go that low in the front...

ZOOM_X_TWO July-21st-2004 01:50 PM

I see...thanks for the advice guys.

I'm thinking either the TEIN's or GoldLines.

the tein s-techs are 1.8 in front and 1.5 in rear. no u dont need a camber kit however u will need a wheel alignment (found out the expensive way). i have them and i love them, they ride very smooth.

as for the MEGAN racing ones, my friend has them in his sentra, there really good too. MEGAN is a fairly new company and so far ive seen quality products from them....

so choose wisely... the teins are at a great price
