Megan racing coils
 
Hi there

I was just wondering what people think of these I'm from England and don't know of anyone that's got any over hear I'm debating between these and v1s these are cheaper and front top mounts but what do you guys think?

We've heard some good things about these coilovers, check out JIC as well (might be a little more pricey).

I would recommend the KW V1s since it does have the stainless body and better valving. I run KWs on my BMW. I do highly enjoy the ride. Since your in England have you heard of Weitec? It is another KW brand.

Cheaper than KWs but still a great quality coilover. With the shipping charges you will incur from the US I think I would be better to purchase from Europe correct?

Also keep in mind the warranty is MUCH better with KW products.

We've had many customers very happy with the Megan coilovers. I recently had a guy call that thought one was bad. He had them for 4 yrs and said he was really happy with them and said he would buy them again. Then two days later he called and said he was wrong nothing wrong with them the leak was from something else so he's still using them fine. So they aren't bad.
But since you live in the UK you will prob have alot more corrosion so going with something that is stainless may be a better longterm idea like the KW V1's, V2 or V3.
Bilsteins also have stainless bodies and I've been very happy with them on my car, but they do cost more.

I have meagans. They are a good buy for the $$. I don't track my car though so I can not speak from personal experience on how they handle on the circuit. On the road, they allow pretty good lowering for looks and still handle pretty well.

Mine do ride a little harsh, though I commute in Northern VA and Washington DC area on pretty poor roads. I will add mine have gotten a little corroded, so it is a little maintenance to keep them adjustable (the collars will get stuck). No major complaints though since they are on the inexpensive side for coilovers that come with camber plates and have an option for the rear dampner adjuster extensions.
