Great video
HK5 lmao some pos rice coilovers. Sounds kind of similar to HKS no?
good video but ebay coilovers r S%#t!! invest a few hundred n get some good
megan racing or TEIN coilvers…..trust me
HK5 or not, still a cheap and consider non brand. HK5 is just from the
seller user.
first off let me say not really hating, BUT first you have the jack stands
on the damn control arm when doing suspension work ?? and the jack holding
the car up safety NO NO number 1. Then you guys are building your own
coilovers..lol umm ok just spend the money and get real ones your struts
and shocks are going to blow quick. Then you tighten the bolts on the
spring compressor with the air ratchet people know that if that slips off
during all the moving they were doing they could be killed! and lastly you
flash the ASE tech certificate but are doing all these things ass backwards
including having the kid tighten all the lugs while the car is in the air
another NO NO unless car is on a lift! oh and with out a torque wrench how
does he know if he over tightened the lugs??? but hey if the car rides ok
then its what ever just next time if doing a HOW TO VIDEO do it properly so
people watching don’t do the same thing cause half of what you did is all
wrong and very unsafe…
Can you even drop the ride ?
How much did you lower it? 2 in?
I like your video dude I did the same on my 2000 civic
Fun drinking game. Everytime you hear the word “JDM” take a shot ;D nah but
seriously, thanks for an idea on where to start with replacing the
coilovers, this summer I shall be prepared.
lol we just got the “SAFETY JACKOFF”
dad mexican o venezuelan? LOL
Are the stock struts still holding up? I imagine they’ve blown by now,
should have gotten some lowering struts also. Stock struts really don’t
last long on such a low/stiff spring unless adjusted to stock height…but
then what’s the point. You can find decent lowering struts (LoTek, etc) on
eBay for $150 – $200 a set. Also, while cheap coilover sleeves such as
these will get the job done, ride quality is sh!t. Bouncy and loud. Skunk2,
Ground Control, TIEN etc sell excellent quality coilover sleeves/springs to
put on your strut of choice without sacrificing too much ride quality at a
somewhat decent price (around $200 – $300 a set.) In the end you get what
you pay for, not saying these are bad just saying you can do better for a
price that isn’t outrageous.
Hey bro… let him speak Spanish a lot of us speak Spanish too.
How did those workout for ya?
Tighten LCA bolts with the suspension preloaded!!! If not your bushing will
not last.
Just wondering what should I use to drop my camry 2008 xle?
So ain’t worth buying?
lol i just watched scar face last week
I need some shocks for my 95 civic can anyone recommend me some? I’m tired
of bottoming out my suspension is terrible I need something that can take
impact, and dips always are always the worst for me and my ride is not even
low!
Good video bro, thanks for thinking about others and not just yourself.
Will this also work for toyota Corolla?
Guys the two Bolts only theight with 54nm!
For a sec i thought you bought ground controls. Too expensive?
Ahah dope tutorial
also #NOOBS holy shit took u the whole day for 1 lol
good stuff, and informative. Btw nice pecks guy in the shorts. ahah
coilover SLEEVES NOT COILOVERS
All you have to do it take off the center shock nut before you take the
strut off and when you lift the car up the pressure will be let off the
spring with no drama, I did my coils in an hour or so
just bought some cx racing coil overs, instead of buying coil over sleeves
after reading many reviews stating that it is highly non recommended to use
coil sleeves on stock shocks being that your stock shocks are not meant for
that stiff of a spring (coil sleeves)
Either save up for real coilovers, or get a good name brand set of lowering
springs and shocks. These shocks will not last long and you’ll have a
shitty ride eventually.
How do these coilovers ride?
if you ain’t about that jdm life then you ain’t living
