Default cxracing coilovers

Has anyone ever used cxracing coilovers. I'm in the middle of trying to figure out what suspension i want and came across them. I saw that a lot of is300 owners were happy with them. The spring rates for our xb's are 8kg in the front and 4kg in the rear. I'm not sure if those are good numbers or not.

From what I remember when I was looking at different coil setups for my car, cxracing coils = megan racing coils.

The spring rates depend on what you're trying to achieve with your suspension. I didn't like a stiff ride with my xb so I found coils with a lower spring rate that gave a smoother ride.

Ehh that excuse is always thrown around. Ksports are budget coilovers just like cxracing coils, most likely manufactured in the same plant as all the other coilovers that come from the far east. For everyday driving or trying to get that stanced look I'm sure they'll do the job just fine.

KSports I had were okay. I highly prefer my ISCs with Swift springs. World of difference.

I mentioned Ksport because I hear a lot of xB2 owners have had good experience with those, honestly, cx racing I see a lot in nissans like the S chassis. but each to there own taste.

If you want the real deal buy KW variant 2 or 3.I have the Variant 2 and my car rails.( they don't make the 3 for 1st gen XB )
Some people are looking just to drop their car, but I'm looking for performance in my drop, with KW you get them both.

I don't think KW makes coils for the 2nd gen.

I was just asking, but i'm back and forth between coilovers or nf210's. I want a comfortable ride, but i wanna go slightly lower than the nf's but not as low as the df's.

nf210's are pretty comfortable, I had them on my car for less than a year until I wanted to go lower. If you don't want a really stiff ride, look for coils with a lower spring rate. The last set of coils I ran on my car had spring rates of 4 front and 5 rear I think and it was a really comfortable ride for coils.
