i have a 99 Lx w/ a 1.6 and i wanted to know what companies made coilovers for my pro. I also wanted to know if there was such a thing like universal coilovers that fit in any car or something liek that which probably wouldnt be that expensive. Please tell me the companies that make the coilover and around how much they should cost. Thanxs im still a rookie

 

Hey toad...check nopi.com and see what they have. I have skunk2, but there are many different kind...Ground Control, Arospeed, and few others. Mainly depends on how low you want to go, and how smooth of a ride you want. I see some on ebay every now and then for 99's and they seem to be relatively inexpensive. My skunk2' were $300, and I installed them myself. Hope this helps, Later

 

So coilovers from a 2002 2.0 protege w/five lugs will fit my 2000 1.6 protege w/only for lugs?

 

Yes.

 

Cool, I never new that. That increases my shopping range

 

I don't know Wonder why I put that in there? I kinda thought at first that engine size made a difference. Hmm, learn something new everyday.

 

so just to clear this up... the skunks will fit my 1.6 liter sedan when they are for the protege 5?

 

Picture an 8-year old child writing on a blackboard in school...

sooooo what are u trying to say.... lol

does an 8 year old know what interchangeable means?

 

 

thanxs alot ppl ive been looking around and i was wondering if anyone here had the ground control ccoliovers and if they do are they any good and how is the ride? Sorry about all the ?'s but i don't want to spend money on something not worth it, besides im 16 and im new to all this car stuff.

 

The front steering knuckles (where the wheels studs begin) have a lot to do with the actual suspension seeing as how that is where the struts mounts to the lower portion of the car. Lighten up dude

 

See I know it wasn't totally irrelevant.
