google found me this:

NEX SS Coilovers - NEX Coilover System

im laughing, this inner bump stop sounds like a disaster waiting to happen, and I feel sorry for anyone who believes what theyre saying about twin-tube dampers, because to the trained eye theyre CLEARLY refering to a monotube damper in the description, race teams prefer monotube consistency, and monotubes have better heat dissipation properties as theres no second tube to have to radiate heat through

you're wrong, its false advertising, the coilovers he's getting doesn't look like that, that picture is most likely coilovers for another car. and you should already know coilovers for our car look nothing like that, especially for the rear.

HONDA CIVIC SI 2006 NEX SS COILOVERS AND SPC CAMBER KIT

that's what they look like. the company only posted a picture of the product, but not the SPECIFIC product for the 8th gen.

Actually, that picture DOES look like the kit for a Civic Si, he simply slid the springs over the rear shocks for the picture.




edit: or were you guys talking about the other website? Meh, it's too damn early to be thinking.

Nah, I'll bet he still buys them. These coilovers might not be ultra high quality, but if he's just looking for a way to get lower than springs without spending a ton of money, I guess they will work. Question is, how long will they last?

right, I understand that the kit I posted isnt for our application, but he just asked for information on the coilovers as a whole and I gave it to him, im sure whats listed on the other site is what this company is sending out and, well, I have a problem with trying to decieve customers with false information

that kit on the CL listing looks about right, and YES, im very well aware of what our coilovers look like, I got very familiar when I did my shopping, when I pulled my Pro-Cs out of their packaging, and when I went to put them on, and even now as I get into it to adjust them for any number of reasons
