You didn't search very well- Google "NEX Coilover Suspension". Lots of info., but like all other coilover makers, NEX says theirs are the best.

i already orderded them. i got the NEX GT coilovers. i am going to try them out to give you guys some feedback. i called them up and they said spring rate is 6k front and 6k rear.

nex is made by golden apple which makes maxspeed,adr and some other brands. ive read a lot of reviews about them and so far people like them for the price.

also there are 2 kinds. GT and SS. GT has 4 way dampning and SS does not. they have preload adjustment and height adjustment and lowers from 1.5 to 3.5 inches.

btw i wont have them on until i get my tires for my wheels so it will be about 2 weeks or so till i get them on

I'm looking forward to your review post. The SS version in the OP's eBay link were priced around $650. The 4-way dampers sound like a good investment, and I assume that they cost considerably more than $650.
