Thumbs up Yonaka Coilovers Tested - PASS!!

I have now put 150 miles on my Yonaka SPEC II Coilovers and I have to say they are up with the best I have owned. Since 1997 I have build including this car 92 and every car had either springs or coilovers. I have had pretty much every brand on the market and I put my name behind Yonaka. They ride outstanding, corning is strong and firm, and no roll which I enjoy. I like when I can throw a car into a corner on the street and it reacts as it should. For the price, quality, and performance I think I did great with trying them. I was sceptically since I never heard of them but just put in Google "Yonaka Coilover Review" and didn't hear one bad word so I tried them. Glad I did!

how is the rebuilding process for these coilovers? please do explain. i am looking at these and BC racing. will probably purchase after christmas. i heard bc u dont have to send the coilovers in to get them rebuild, you just need to buy some cartridges and replace them and ur back on the road. just wondering if these are the same.

I believe he has them on both the IS-F and the IS-C.

Haven't tried out the Yonaka coilovers myself but we carry the Yonaka brand as well. We have sold their seats and radiators and both items are good stuff.

Good to hear from Fox that the coilovers perform well.
