they suck. too stiff, too bouncy, kill you stock shocks on the 2 day, making it WORSE handeler than stock car.

You could always go with the Dropzone SPRINGS, not coilovers... I have them on my car coupled with tokico struts and they work really well.

I prefer little softer springs, like H&R, Intrax, Neuspeed....I think, dropzone springs are not much better than coilovers.

tokico hp struts with dropzone adjustable coiloversIS THIS A GOOD SETUP GUYS?...I NEED YOUR OPINION

I had that same setup, and from experience, I'm going to say NO.
My tokico struts were blown in around a month.

Dropzone coilovers are really stff and will blow any struts that are available for the 3G. They even blew my Konis in the front. leaving me with a bouncy ride that had me mad every time i drove

SO just do like somebody said and get regular drop springs with tokico struts.
peace.

they are450F annd 350R.
I tried to use the 350 for the front since its closer to ground control rates...but it resulted in bottoming out a lot and scraping.
(stupid laptop spacebar)
Also, 90-97 sleeve coilovers will fit our cars, soyou can use a set of those...

my friend used to have dropzones, I stay away from anything that has this name. shocks, all rubber parts of suspension, ball joint on control arms broke in no time, so i say its cheaper to buy better springs first time than fixing all that.
