GE8 Megan Coilovers

As some of you may know, megan is finally releasing their coilovers for the GE8 within a week. I'm going to purchase a set through a friend, but if any other of you guys are also interested within a week, he can give us a group buy price. I need at least 2 more guys to get the lower price, the more the merrier. Local Socal preferred, but can ship too, if you guys want.

PM me for the gb price only if you are serious. you won't get a price this low anywhere. i can also get you a shipping quote. Help me help you guys, i'll be buying a set regardless, but we could all save and get a deal if we buy together.

ill write up a review on the coilovers in a couple weeks once i get a feel for them. excited!!

pm sent!

my question is...why is it that when i search for fit coilovers on google, no shopping results ever come up? it's like they aren't sold anywhere online, but if you dig deeper through links and tags, you can end up at, for example, evasive or pwjdm's website...

even if i search specificly for "d2 honda fit ge8 coilovers", or buddyclub for that matter, nothing comes up as far as shopping results go.

yea, not bad at all. for what it's worth, i've ran and tracked megan's on my s13 for over 2 years with no issues whatsoever...but these are finished off at the same factory as the apex ones for the s13, but pieced together with different springs. i'm not sure what's behind the new ones for the GE8, but even from other owners with megan coilovers, i've heard nothing but great results. (i'm only talking about their coilovers. not arms or links etc.)

i'd totally be down for these if the fit was my fun car...

if these were more of a DD friendly coilover i'd be down for that deal...

besides im on GC sleeves with spring rates that i picked out.. so... i think im just gonna wait for koni or some other company to come out with some adj dampers.. its gonna take forever... lol

bump for chuck... get a GREAT deal on coilovers and help him with his group buy!!!

Can anyone confirm this???

As nice as that'd be, it would seem unlikely that they'd change up their game plan altogether like that...?
