Coilover help
So I'm going to buy coilovers tomorrow and I'm on a budget of $600-700, I was thinking about Megan EZ and found Godspeed for the same price. I've tried searching about Godspeed for the GS but did not find anything. Anyone on Godspeed that can tell me how the quality is and how it rides?

Save up another 3-400 and buy a set of Fortune, BC Racing or Powered by Max. Those three are [IMO] the best entry level coilovers. The spring rates on the PBM are on the higher side, but they're valved correctly so it's virtually unnoticeable. The spring rates on the Fortune and BC are custom so you can specify what you want. The Megans are valved too softly for a vehicle this heavy and who knows with the GodSpeed (although I'll admit, I do like their S-chassis suspension arms).

Save a few more $$$ and get something better. I have D2 for a few years now and still working gooooooood. Very happy with it.

Most cheap coilovers are made in the same factory in China then re branded. Megan, Godspeed, Emusa, etc...and will ride soft and bouncy. If you are just looking into riding lower and having a daily for cheap the you will be fine with megan honestly.
Look into Stance, fortune auto, JIC, Cusco, HKS, etc...
