    Despite what it says they are not coilovers. Coilovers are the shock and spring in the same combination. These are just adjustable springs, hence why the price is so cheap.

    I would personally recommend the following coilovers, I have got them in my VR at the moment. Excellent product and excellent price also:

    ah coilover sleeves, if u were to buy any buy ground control ones. same ones rayray had which is now in mickey's car. u then need a decent shock to go with them so if u add the price of the sleeves + new shocks = not worth it. the total comes around to coilover money or a really good spring/shock kit like bilstein or koni.

    LOL, a set of basic V1 KWs are around $2-3k, so for $160ish, I'd have to wonder

    Hit up Robin (evorobin) for a set of HotTuning coilovers or his set of adjustable height spring and shocks in the for sale section

    JOM coilovers are the same as Hottuning fellas
    so support Robin, not some overseas Ebay seller

    I've got a set of JOM's as well in my VR6 and I coudln't be happier I also have a friend with them in his MIV GTI and they're great again. I got them, and a complete set of front and rear strut mounts (with front bearings) for $602 delivered from the same seller which came in 4 days

    Cash is king unfortunately, the $200+ difference is alot to some people, especially me...

    exactly. As patriotic as I am, I'd rather have an extra $250... If the difference in price was less than $100 then i'd consider getting them here, but $200 is a big difference in the current economical state.
