T1R Coilovers

Wish I had some pics to post of the actual suspension, but I just wanted to give a positive review for these bad boys. The suspension rides and handles amazing. I have the front struts set on 6 and the rear on 8. It feels great around town. The coilovers are amazing quality.

Now, one negative thing I have to say is the adjustable swaybar endlinks are wimpy. In fact, thats why I figured I'd do this review. I looked at mine today and they were starting to bend. It's so weird, the endlinks just don't look like they belong with such beautiful suspension. Here are a few pics showing how blah the endlinks are.





Now, let me just say again, the coilovers themselves are worth every penny. The endlinks, I would just stick with the factory ones, or find something alittle better.

No problem. Yeah it was a little upsetting. I bent them back for now until I get back to virginia so I can put the stockers on. I also bumped the dampening up to 14-f 18-r. Feels great on the back roads and still nice around town. I'll probably leave them on this setting except when I'm at the track.

Sorry, I stopped getting online for awhile as you can see lol. Not trying to bring this thread back from the dead, but just for researchers sake I'm answering felix's question. No felix I didn't have any problems, but I believe you have the first gen Bmax's correct? I have the Bmax 52's which are the second gen.

Everything lined up fine on mine. I had no problems installing mine. Just be careful with the axles I also noticed on someone's F/s thread for some bmax 52's that they had different endlinks(which looked much nicer I might add). So I don't know what the deal is with the endlinks, but I know mine were crap, which is why I'm running the stockers.

They fit perfectly on mine. The adjustable ones they sent me were crap.
