Had a quick search but couldn't find anything, looking to lower my celica I was wondering if someone with experience could give some advice/recommend some springs, also how hard of a job is it to install them yourself?
Thanks |

Ah, I thought the original was a racing series. Especially after looking at the kg rates the EZ series are a lot softer than the other set that sells for $880? or so new. The only difference quality wise I could see between the two is the EZ series has 15 damper settings, where as the more expensive set has 32. Being that the EZ series has a softer kg rate I'm sure the 15 settings is more than enough for street use. Also I went and checked between Rock Auto and eBay and everything I mentioned would cost $532 shipped to my door today. Mine was done almost 2 years ago and then it was closer to mid $400, still much cheaper than buying from a physical store. Then again I can see the allure for most people if they don't have the tools and ability to do everything by themselves, that $160 difference is easily made up.
It's not so much an issue of where it's made, but in the manner as to how it was done. I don't have a problem with a Chinese owned and operated company and buying their products. What I do have a problem with is American companies exploiting Chinese people for cheap labour, while the fat asses over here get all of the money. That's any company no matter where labour is done, but they could pay more to the workers. Then again if they were willing to do that they would have never left production here to begin with... A lot of it it also that the Chinese make it to spec to whatever company tells them to, which is why we have the notion that "Chinese made=garbage". I used some Chinese(from a Chinese company) made microscopes back in school and they were top notch and had a sense of pride in how they were made. I want my money to go to the people that made it as much as possible, not to slavers. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
