Model Reviewed: 1994

Strength:

Adjustability. High quality Eibach springs with rates tailored to reasonable street use, not racing. Racing spring rates may be custom ordered.

Weakness:

Some concern over structural integrity of aluminum collar and adjuster to support vehicle weight. Clearances between collar and shock maintained by rubber O-rings or plastic sleeve depending upon application. I'd prefer a high density urethane shim. I believe that the O-ring does not provide sufficient contact area for a very firm fit and may degrade over time. A very simple, inexpensive fix.

Very nice performance spring rate for the street. Firm and predictable due to linear rate, but not harsh. Adjustment is very simple and was accomplished in 1/2 hour after installation. Some minor grinding of KYB AGX shock required per installation.

Strength:

Very smooth quality ride, not much bouncing

Weakness:

none so far

ground control coilovers are awesome,ride is stiff just about all the time with Kyb agx shocks i have,to say the accords are heavier than most other sports cars,if you plan on getting coilovers for an accord go with GC,since the month i had them, the only time i had some bounce were over a few nasty, nasty bumps, if you want quality, go with GC, dont waste your money on those other cheap springs, like arospeed,maxspeed,matrix,etc. Especially skunk2,they are sh@@, they are not worth the 3 or 4 hundred dollars they are,I have witness the horribleness in a friend''s ride, its just all hype by ads

Strength:

great adjustability ratio. Not alot of bounce like other coil over kits. The stiff springs offer a more controlled ride.

Weakness:

It was easy to adjust but not as easy as the magazine ads make it look. In one magazine I saw some guy just reaching in above his tire and twisting. Hahahaha. Its fairly easy but not that easy.

I had done alot of research before I made my decision on which coil overs to go with. I believe that ground control make a great product. If you want to be low without all that bounce go with GC.

This product is great I got coilovers instead of springs for one reason I wanted to be able to adjust the height of my car because where I live their are some pretty crappy roads and I didnt want to scrape my car on the road plus I live on a gravel road.

Strength:

easy adjustments

Weakness:

bouncy and noisy

nice springs, but on my car they were a bit bouncy and made a lot of claning noise. not sure if it was just installation...but it looks right. the bouncing around is hitting the threads and damaging it. Really wish they weren't bouncy and noisy. Is all coil-overs bouncy and noisy. It's not just little noise, you can hear it from outside it drives by.

Model Reviewed: 1990 Acura Integra

Strength:

Great control and comfortable ride

Weakness:

Not really any weakness besides its kinda akward to adjust the rear ones because its in a tight space, but nothing horrible.

I purchased my konis in a group buy from b17a.com awhile ago. I figured $500+ for shocks was crazy, but I heard many people praise these shocks, so I decided to go for them. All I can say is I am very pleased with them. I have them with Ground Control Coilovers and the ride is amazing. I have them on the softest setting and it rides very smooth and not bouncy at all. I put them on them on the stiffest setting once though and it was VERY stiff. Not good for daily driving, but for the track I bet it is amazing. It already corners great on the softest setting.

Never had any others besides stock and I would say it rides better than the stock setup.

Not to bouncy of a ride and adjustable to almost any desireable height

Great Coil Overs Worth the money. Ground Control Coil Overs are Badass!! They ride so much smoother than the Neuspeed Race Springs. Plus you can adjust them. With ran these with Tokico Blue Shocks. Rides not to bouncy either. This Coil Overs impressed us so much we decided to add them to our product line for sale.
