#179063 I got some cheap ebay coilovers on my CRX field hopper... they are a little bouncy but the car has 270K with from what i can tell is the factory suspension.

I'm gunna put the rear ones on my coupe cause the back is still stock ride height and the fronts slammed on eibachs

#182471 I rocked replica Skunk2 springs for 2 years and never had any issues. The ride was awesome and handling improved!

#182956 I have seen photos of cheapo suspension parts ripping the frame apart. This is due to bounciness.

well not everyone jumps stuff. i dont see how a "bouncy" ride can cause a chassis to "rip" apart. shouldnt believe these photos. i dont see how its possible.
