@Boostlee There needs to be cutting I belive involve. The drop that Im doing is pretty low from where I am now. Right now my mudslaps are 4" off the ground you can ask @eggman he seen my car. My car its not for either autocross or any racing of that matter my car is a show car. Here is a link of my car http://www.sr20-forum.com/new-members/65927-abdiel-orlando-fl.html

@Abdielo

As I mentioned before (and hence why I asked if you have access to a set of blown coilovers), if you have the right housings from certain coilovers NO cutting is required...........AND the rear does not use a strut.

Ask me how I know (8611s in Tein SS housings)

Re: About CSK Suspension?
He didn't make his from stock housings. He used Tein coilover housings and they dropped in.

^^I know...and all this stuff is in old threads on how to make them and all I did my search. The deal is who can make some for me so I can pay for the set that is the bottom line, the main point in the topic. lol.... like I said I appreciate the input and the re-info. Im willing to pay anyone that can make a set so I can drop some GC coilovers. If not I'll just end up getting what I was going to get either Ksport or Megan coilovers. Like I said in a few post back this a show car not for autocross or etc. also is my DD so thats why Im looking for someone to make me a set of this CSK so it wont be so harsh on my daily drives in which aint far anyways I dont drive far of town unless is for something important. So thats why Ibdont mind the Ksport or Megan since they will do their purpouse.

If it's a show car don't waste your time on these. Just get whatever Chinese/Taiwanese stuff and be done. Be much easier and quicker

^^^its also my DD like I stayded thats why I would rather have some CSK some roads here in FL aint the best.

But either way if I do stay going on that route of the Ksports or Megan coilover which one would it be best or any other suggestion. I was thinking of the Megan since they are red, black, and silver so matches with the theme colors of the car but this is more of quiality so which of this two Ksport or Megan? Or Any other?

In all honesty, there are a handfull of people who make them, but there is a good chance
1) They have no spare housings or have to source them
2) Has to build them (read Rich, etc)
With this in mind, it may take up to several weeks to get housings done (if they do), and why I suggested doing it yourself. It is really simple and fairly hard to mess up. Koni even has an instruction manual (albeit, a little lacking as far as clarity is concerned, but good enough) as well as there being good info from what you have found I assume

Also, I HATE everything D2, Megan, Function Form, Ksport, etc

Reasons being
1) Terribly valved
2) Way below sub par build quality and materials
3) Incorrect Spring Rates
4) 12,24 or whatever way adjustment that really does nothing for either rebound or bound
5) Overpriced for what they are (I can have a full Koni setup for around the price of those coils)

However, for what you want (the look) the coils mentioned above will suffice.

Good luck! As mentioned, contact Rich or Eggman and see what they come up with. Can't tell the last time I saw Rich online, but he visits other forums very frequently. I may be convinced to build a set however

I just said how long it took to get my custom housings made, looking at 6 months turn around time (at least that was my experience last year). I got my housings in November or something after paying in early June. Just realize there will be a wait. However, if you find a blown set of housings and do an insert that fits them, you could get a few more chances at willing people to make them for you.
