Sick man. Ill have to check it out at the next meet . Those are the same springs I'm trying to convince my friend Chris (NamedGoBalt) to get for his yellow SS/SC. Def a good price.

I've got no idea if they are better than ksport. I've heard nothing but good things about goldlines, and the limited time offer was just too good to pass up. I might have actually gotten one of the last sets, tbh.

Both are pretty good brands. The only springs i'd actually stay away from would be the #1 springs on Cobalt Addiction and the Tenzos. #1 is a cheapo brand that Nopi owns.....my friend used to have them on his '03 Civic EX when he had it.......eventually switched to ST springs. The #1 springs rode absolutely horrible. As for the Tenzo springs.......Tenzo is focused on designing seats, exhausts, intakes, engine dress up, wheels, tachs.....etc etc.....so they aren't exactly focused on designing a nice spring for any certain car. The Tenzo springs tend to oversettle and ride rough.

Goldline is a good brand......kinda faded out a bit over the past.......but nontheless, still reputable.

K-Sport is an up and coming name. They currently have a few drift cars, time attack cars, and road race cars, so racing roots is never a bad platform to build a name upon. So i'd say K-Sport is pretty good stuff too.

Haha, nice. My girlfriend actually got the last Tanabe Twin Hyper Medallion exhaust that was stocked here in the States. Its discontinued too, so you could say she got the last one avaiable over here period.

Oh yeah, i'm becoming a millitary man soon too. After talking to my friend who just got back from bootcamp for the National Guard Reserve, i've decided to go ahead with it. It was kinda in the back of my mind, but he gave me the push I needed to go through with it.

Yes indeed. A nice change from the typical "Pics of my SS on Sportlines" or "Pics of my SS on Progress" threads, lol. Kinda cool seeing someone do something different. But hey, back when I bought my springs last year, there was only Eibach, H&R, Progress, Zenn and Sprint, and Eibach had the biggest drop, so thats why I chose them. K-Sport, Goldline and Tenzo-R and Road Magnet hadn't released their springs yet.

Why the hell does everyone talk **** about the Tenzo's? Do you have them on YOUR car? Well guess what i do and i have about 25k miles on them... the price was very reasonable...drop is spot on perfect, and it rides almost as good as stock...so tell me what warrants you to talk **** about them?

I know all this is off topic and i apologize for that...Im just sick of people knocking **** when they know absolutely nothing about it.
