http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT

they seem just as good as the jamex ones but half the price, they come with a 2 year warrenty so they shouldnt break??? i dont really want to blow out on expensive coilovers till after ive got my b18 lump but if these are just gona b a total waste of money and possibly ruin my car i wont chance it, has any1 used either of these?

I actually have had Jamex lowering springs on my mustang for about 9-10 years now. They have been great springs, despite that most people have not heard much about Jamex here in the US. I only got them because Eibach were on backorder.
I can't speak for their coil overs though....
Even if the cheaper ones do blow and they are under warranty, think about all of the labor it takes to change them, plus the cost of shipping them back and having your car down... IF that company is even around in 2 years.

Hope that helps

- Mon Feb 15, 2010 1:46 pm #175477 Yh the original suspension spring seat fitted perfectly, fitting the coilovers was alot easier than i thought although the rear bolts were rusted on and snapped so iv had 2 leave the rears 2 the pro's :\ iv put them all the way down on the lowest setting but it doesnt seem that low, they say they can go 120mm on the front but looks more like 60-70, im guessing they will get alot lower when they settle properly but they're a million times better than the oem suspension, ride doesnt seem too hard, here are some pics of the front end lowered...

- Fri Feb 19, 2010 1:42 pm #176342 That's definatly not 120mm... My K-sport could lower up to 120 mm and i had plenty more to go when I had it this low...
