ive talked to a person who lent their car to NEX to prototype the coilovers and was told they ride like buddyclubs.

I remember when I had my 01 civic. They were the first coilovers to come out for that car, and I was near first in line for them. I grabbed them as quickly as I could and had problems from day one. They would make clunking noises, and eventually after about a month of use one of the mounting points on the coilover itself broke off. I had to have a shop weld the part back on to the coilover.

Horrible coilovers, and will never think twice about getting rid of them. That was the first time I learned the lesson in modding a car that you pay for what you get.

Not a problem. In all honesty, I might of just got a bad batch because they were so new. But, I know that I personally won't give them another chance. I would rather avoid any headaches, and spend a little more money to have peace of mind.
