[@boxer951]

I got the same maxspeedingrods for my 08 Civic Si back in 2017 and they were noisy,stiffness was ok but the real con is that the shocks blew within three months!! I then went with rokkor coilovers that use the stock top hats and it really made a huge difference in ride quality. It was way more comfortable,still stiff but not exaggerated Luke theaxspeedingrods and they lasted me over a year till I totalled my Si. The maxspeedingrods coilovers shocks were not adjustable though so idk if that would've made them last longer or gave me better ride quality but still the metal to metal top hats that come with the coilovers are noisy compared to rokkor that use stock oem top hats,so even for that reason alone I would stick with rokkor which are a bit more expensive but worth it.

[@Nasonix2]

Look at how these "shocks" perform on a shock Dyno and you'll be shocked. 😅 There's zero dampening initially. About 5% dampening force as you'd expect there to be. Then later on in the high speed area they spike sky high in force all a sudden. It actually goes off the charts. What that tells you is they're progressive in category (Linear and digressive is what you want for a car, not progressive). But not just that, the fact that it goes off the charts at the high speed area means only one thing.. the dampers shim stack it self is Max'd and isn't doing anything except compressing hydraulic fluid. To say these are bad is an understatement. They're literally the most undesirable dampers you'd ever pick for your car. Zero body control, zero initial turn in response (other than what the springs are doing) and then when you hit a medium size pothole going over 30+mph, youll bounce up in the air (the force of the springs with no dampening) then when you come back down BAM the dampers suddenly apply their maximum force. They have tons of lag, no motion control, and are overwhelmed from an average pothole. Cmon Be real guys . Do some research on these before you recommend them for others to get screwed by. You can get some real deal linear/digressive dampers twin tube or hell even monotube for just a little more money than what these cost and these are garbage shock🗑️shock🗑️ shock 🗑️ shock 🗑️

[@xSeRosiSx]

What I find amazing is the color of your CRX (orange-red) looks exactly like the color of my old one/parts car. It's interesting that two different people colored their CRX's the same. Or maybe the same person owned both yours and mine at some point and just loved that color. Painting style nearly matches as well, just sprayed haphazardly and on the trim pieces as well.

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I believe some people liked the OEM maroon color found on them originally I actually really like this color. I'd like to get outside and paint the moldings back to black and try to chip the rest of the paint off of the bumper moldings too.

@@GarageBuiltHondas For the 10 years I had the orange one the only thing that ever threatened to take the orange paint off the trim was a good pressure washer.

(besides that it looks like it’s a different way to adjust height on it, doesn’t have that bottom collar ,I think to adjust it you got to take off bottom of coilover too spin it ,, odd because I never saw that style) and since I got the car I always felt like the car was leaning a little to the back left then I saw the tire was having way more wear than the other three, I was so close to getting the Godspeed ones but damn I rather pay less than half in stone that has more good than bad news.

Hey Jon, I have a 2010 Honda Civic and am eager to get coilovers. I originally wanted these but then heard a lot of negative about them. Like the strut went through one guys hood. Not sure why, but i would think as long as I'm not sending it over speed bumps and potholes i should be fine. After having yours off for a bit how is it? Think i should get them myself?? I do a lot of highway driving. Just don't want the worst to happen or get stranded.

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I really can't vouch for longevity. I've now used them for 3 track days but that's it. The care if only driven during those times so it probably has around 750ish miles on them. Maybe the guy that had it go through his hood has some hardware fail but I have only seen that happen when a top hat is incorrectly re-assembled missing hardware.

Long time man, how is it going, i think i saw this video back then, and now i got it as suggestion looking for reviews on this brand, i’m looking for something for my ‘08 CR-V, since it’s a daily i don’t need anything over the fence, but don’t wanna risk it either, security wise… how did it go with these? apart from being sponsored, would you recommend? thx 🤙🏻

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I think for daily these are great. A ton of people have used them and have had good results for daily use.

[@2_2_4_3]

Some are decent.. I had GODSPEED on my last Civic EJ1 and they were great. Not expensive and not cheap junk. They gave an excellent ride, and had adjustable damper.

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I agree. I've seen some solid Megan ones also.

[@Opiti72]

Great video man, well done!!

[@brandonjohnson3566]

Fantastic video brother, I know I just commented on another video lol. But love the knowledge you showed and the camera angles. Love the copper pearl color of the crx. Very clean

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Thanks man!! I don't mind comments one bit, I encourage them!!

[@MultiKiller169]

nice video man. can you say the size of your wheels , diameter, width and offset? And also the tires size ?

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

15x7+35 205/50

[@thecrxsienthusiastguy5052]

Why yours are orange and the ones they show are Gray ? And would this set works for my 1990 honda crx si? Thank you sir hope you answer my question !

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I believe I have an older style model since I was sent the set free. The link I provided in the description and comments has the set you'll need for your crx. I also have a coupon code there that they have provided!

[@thecrxsienthusiastguy5052]

Thank you sir and great video

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

@@thecrxsienthusiastguy5052 you're welcome!

Exactly the answer I needed! I was on the site and the ones for the crx were grey and the one's shown on video here were like for other model hondas. Thanks

Nice 👍

[@951phantom]

I'm definitely considering these for my F20B Swapped Cb7... Do you need to use the Hex key to adjust the damper or can you just use your hand to turn it... Love the channel!!!

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Thanks! They can be turned by hand, no key was needed for mine.

[@951phantom]

@@GarageBuiltHondas sweet!!!! Thanks Bro! Are they still holding up? Would you suggest them for Daily driving? I currently have Skunk2 springs with Tokiko Blues but the struts are blown... Would you suggest these or just buy new struts? Thanks again

[@celestialyidum]

Those are probably the cheapest coilovers I've ever seen lol I was expecting $400 but $250?!? God damn! lol

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

No kidding! I hadn't really searched for "budget" coilovers before until this company approached me! I dig em so far!

This is the worst coil overs I've ever used ...Have them on my subaru legacy B4....Its a nightmare.....Dont buy this for daily driven....to me its for the track (smooth surfaces) or light weight cars

[@matos_x_]

Is there a reason you chose 8k front and 5k rear spring rates or is that just what it came with?

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

No, they are supplied with those rates.

[@omarq1414]

Hello, Great Videos, they have helped me so much with just replacing parts on my CRX and Even watched your 07 Accord Brakes video. I purchased these coil overs for my CRX, any recommendation for removing the top Nuts on Rears? I cannot get a socket in there and all I can think of doing is removing the plastics to expose the top of the shock more. I am sure their is an easier way than removing that. Thanks.

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Long socket will work with a 3/8" ratchet. That's what I do.

[@PNDASnipin]

@garagebuilthondas 4:38 your not supposed to make height adjustments like that ! The spring is prefixed from the manufacture at a default setting . Your supposed to spin the shaft to make adjustments hope it’s still holding up .

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

You're not looking closely enough. The perches are locked against one another. When you do that, you can now crank it and raise/lower the entire assembly without affecting preload of the spring.

[@micaiahflores1592]

awesome thanks for the review of these i have this set on my 96 corolla good to know they can take track abuse

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

You're welcome

[@Engineerboy100]

Good job on the video and good advice. I installed similar Rev9 coilovers and I love them. I did a video on my channel of the install and will be making a review video soon, I've already started shooting the raw footage. @

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Nice!

[@Dragonfabb]

Do you think they would be okay if you change the spring rates to higher rates

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I don't. I doubt these shocks are engineered for stiffer springs. My guess I that it would wear out the shocks prematurely.

[@jakethepeasant]

I've got a set of these on my 4th gen ("EF") sedan and I'm not really happy with how they ride on the streets to be honest, super stiff and bouncy regardless of damping setting. Also two of the shocks were leaking out of the box and one had no fluid left in it so I had to pay to get two new bodies sent. I'm sure for track use they are fine but unless you live somewhere with super smooth roads I'd hesitate to recommend them for road use.

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Thanks for the input. I'm going to try a set on my EF sedan soon too. Maybe it'll feel the same, hoping it doesn't.

[@YTnMe]

Wanna get a set for my daily rsx, just worried if they will last through the winter. I saw a review of them braking on someone but im sure they were full sending their car… thoughts on if i should go with this or teins?

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Get Tein

[@hankr3603]

Do you think these are good for a wagon? I can't find anyone with this setup on a wagon, I'm going for a 1-2" drop My concern is the rear spring rate due to wago specific shocks

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

I had function form type 1's on my wagon and they are similar to these but a slightly softer spring rate and they felt great. This will fit and probably ride really well on your wagon.

[@hankr3603]

@@GarageBuiltHondas Thanks for getting back to me, your content is keeping these old cars alive and I really appreciate it!

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

[@ChutneyInc.]

I too would like to thank them for sending them out. Not enough reviews

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

👍🙏

[@jacoblacourse9053]

does each individual coilover cost 3-400 or is that the price for the set?

[@19ZOLTAN18]

I have to say this. Honda’s are very universal with suspension. The reason being is they use multi link suspension on the front and sometimes on the rear. The factory springs rates are pretty high. So these Chinese coilovers will be ok for now on a Honda.. but if I put it on my gc8 wrx, they would be absolutely awful. I’ve been in cars with these coilovers. Yeah if you’re a tight ass buy these Chinese coilovers but if you really love the feel of going around corners, spend a bit extra. It’s worth it. Trust me. You’ll love every time you get in and out of the car

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

These are great for Honda's...so far. I can't stress it enough and I'm always mentioning that I want to see if they last. The price justifies it when you're buying a Honda for 1k or so.

[@xckjyt]
