wow, we actually agree on something lol
I also add, that magazines like zoom and pi love you use HSD coilovers.....why?
Because Ben Ellis (former editor of PI) runs otomoto, and they are the guys who are the distributors for HSD, so there is a vested intrest.
Note: HSD by all means are a decent unit, but still no where near the quality of a set of Bilstein BSS9's or Aragosta etc, but at 1/4 the price.
Also be wary of any magazine "review" on car stuff, with the laws the way they are, they simply cannot say a product is absolute shit without the risk of being sued for deformation.
Perfect example of rubbish products being reviewed as "good" are the Pro-comp brand of china v8 parts.
In which the aftermarket cylinder heads dont line up properly, the "billet" distributor shafts are bent and snap after a few hours etc.
but these products are often used in "project cars", what they dont say is that they had to try 3 diffent sets of rods and a billion hours of machining to get them to work.
Any way
