Not a problem, just trying to help out too

I see you've been busy looking on ebay, between the Ksport, toe hook, etc..

I look for parts on ebay too, and whenever I see something new I haven't experienced I will ask just the same. In this case I have experience with the ksport brand on other cars and would not recommend them due to the low quality of materials, poor finish and design and reputation for leaky dampers. I hope if others have something good or bad to contribute from personal experience they will

I am sure this could be validated by Vanderkitten, he seems to be our resident Megan Coilover expert

I just recently heard this in the Scion community, too. I didn't know that.

Black Yaris · 07-18-2007, 12:25 PM

They look exactly like the Megan's

ChinoCharles · 07-18-2007, 02:10 PM

Make no mistake about it. Megan Racing is a RESELLER, not a MANUFACTURER.

ya, but they seem to like to slap their name on everything they sell trying to make it look like they make their own parts.

I'm not knocking Megan Racing for doing it. That is extremely common practice in the aftermarket. I'm just trying to clarify. If they don't brag about their parts being "Made in the USA," but you see a picture of their California headquarters on their web site... put two and two together.

Having said all that, I'd still give a testicle for their coilovers.

black market organ sales soar

I Will try not to sound Bias since I sell Megan Racing and I do not sell K Sport (I could off a few distributors but I won't)...

Selling in the 240SX Community, I have heard much differently. The Megan Racing perform better. Also, the 3g Eclipse community I have seen people with K Sports have lots of problems where the Megan Racing I have sold right around sets of them with no problems.. They may be similar in design but they are going to be so they fit the car! The welds, build, craftsmanship, and R&D are what make the product...

so Megan > K Sports Gotcha

YarisPR · 07-18-2007, 04:55 PM

Guys i need some help here. I'am looking on upgrading my Yaris Sedan's handling. I lowered the car just for looks with the TRD springs but I want the car to be good at the track as well. What would you recomend me? Coils, Shocks? What should I get first? And if you can give up some links of the products that are offered much better. I'am asking you guys because here in PR the only options for the Yaris are offered by the TRD guys from the dealerships and damn they charge for the products as if I was driving a Porsche.

Thanks

i had k-sport on my evo and had great experience on the track and had no issues. but now my evo is on JIC's.......................ftw................... ...evo is my track car

mojoyaris · 09-29-2007, 01:03 AM

I talked to some of the Megan distributors who didn't recommend the K-sports and said i'd be better off with the Megans for the cost. They've done well enough for me. So far so good. I just want stiffer spring rates up front.
