I've never heard of them but they look pretty good and the price seems about right..

If your on a budget check out the Tanabe Sustec pros.. I beleive they run around that same price if your looking for name brand products.. Or keep searching the classifieds regularly.. The Tein Flex seem to be popping up more and more lately.. GL..

did some more research on these coilovers all over the internet and they seem to be of good history.
lots of other forums complememnt them and i did not even find one single negative review on these coilovers.
for that price, the ss version in the link above seem like a nice deal.The ss version lets you adjust the strut height only.
they also have the GT version which lets you adjust the strut height and has a 4 way adjustable damping control which lets you adjust the shocks too.

I think i would consider the coils considering there adjustable and you can create the height you want with a turn of a wrench.. YOur limited with S/S because you can't adjust.. I say try them.. Make sure they have a warranty and if you don't like them you can always sell them in the classifieds.. GL.. I think you will be happier with the coils..

NEX coilovers are a very nice setup. A couple of buddies are running on their Hondas. They do various racing (drag, auto-x, etc.) and they have no complaints. I would reccommend them for a good entry-level setup.

wow, .. i had these exact coilovers on my accord way back in 2000, .... i'm trying to remember what the ride was like..... but then again it won't be a direct comparason. i think it was a bit on the softer side but somewhat bouncey... who knows, it's been over 7yrs maybe they gotten better... i would say, for the price , i would try those again vs. shocks and springs. otherwise just spend your $$ on the flx, hks, etc.
