I'm surprised they're not called "Koilovers". Seriously, I wouldn't put any money into coilovers with a name like "Kontrol Pro". They just sound pretty ghettotastic.
That may sound judgmental, but it seems like there are always cheap sets out there for people who just think "they're coilovers, so they must be good," and that name has my alarm bells ringing. I'm waiting 'till I can afford KWs, personally. They may be twice as much, but at least I know they will be a real improvement over the stock setup. |

 Yeah no go. I know a few people with cheap coilovers and they are pissed. One was skunk2, tons of clicking and popping and other noises.

I think you can get away with cheaper coilovers; my friend has some Megan Racing coilovers and they're actually pretty nice all around. But i read on my350z that some shop did a spring compression test or whatever its called on a new, never installed set of Ksport, and that each one rated differently. Meaning none of them were the some compression and rebound, so they arent made in a very controlled, precise way
