Like the title sez.. I want to take pics of MEGAN coils VS. SERAILNINE coils for shits and gigglies. . . .

I want people to know how they will NOT NEARLY go as low as the best in the fuckin business SERIALNINE shit. . cuz I know. . just all of y'all dont. . .so untill you see pics.. it's just heresay. .


They have a new X7 setup out as well.. i wanna do a comparison against my X7 setup. . Cuz mine allow enough travel to require modding the BODY AND THE LCA to accomdate the utter sickness.. and Megans have a stock type adjustable spring WHERE MINE BOTTOM OUT THE LCA SPRING PERCHES THERE WITHOUT BUMPSTOPS!!!!. . so basically that means that my setup goes like 3 inches LOWER than the megans. . tongue.gif YES YES. . i know im THAT good. .

And as for the fronts. . AMEEN will attest that there is such a thing as TOO low . .lol. . as we had to raise his car up slightly in practice. . It was so low that on the bank the tire was rubbing the upper inner fender .. werd. . YES YES. . again.. im THAT good..

AND they go almost as high as stock. .

Sorry to burst your bubble, but not everyone is into drifting, or atleast I aint. Where I live it would be stupid to ride around slammed, cause your shit will get ruined. I just want my car to have about a inch gap from the tire, and a suspension that will help me in the 1/4. G whatcha got for suspension that can help improve my 60ft times?

Coilovers out back and stock up front works great for the drag strip and it's half the price .

K first of all.. i offer TWO seperate coilovers.. one is valved and sprung stiffer. . the softer ones would work awesome for street and drag. . the 10/8 sprig rates are slightly softer and the VALVING as also softer. . you can setup the height accordingly for drag racing.

Second of all.. my suspension is designed to allow it to go UP to almost stock height (around an inch lower). . ANY coilover will do that.. BUT mine are geared toward being able to go LOWER than all because NOT every coilover will do that. .

Glad to se ethe megans can ACTUALLY go low. .

Hope you enjoy it!!

My Megans



I still have a inch left to go in the front and even more in the rear, plus those are only 17s. Give me 19s, go the inch lower and I'll tuck the fucking rim.

Megans go low and they're cheap. Its been about price and it's always been about price. S9s from what everyones says are amazing and I have no doubt that they are but i'm a cheap asshole and I got the megans. I know the S9 crew think I'm a chump now, but oh well.

I've put around 10,000 miles on the Megans and I've recently checked them. No leaks, no valve degradation, no collar binding, still like brand new.

I'll ask to see if Ben will drift my car and I'll let him give you guys a full no bias opinion on how they drive on the track from someone who's opinion holds a lot of merit.

I trust the construction and dampening on S9/Stance miles more than Megan.

I don't give two shits about slamming my car.

don't forget about the weight of the car. tipical loaded x8 will go lower than a track x8 with the same coils if the adjustments are maxed. unless you're resting on the rubber bump stops on long dampers, then you're screwed anyway.
