isn't that what market researching is... getting the consumer's opinion about your product...
but anyways, didn't know you worked for them, i knew you worked for cbwheels and sold dropzone products but didn't know you worked for drop zone. what do you do there anyways?

I have Dropzone coilovers... and I am extremely disappointed with them... I wish I could get a refund, and get a set of Neuspeed Springs... the ride is way too bouncy (but i guess thats what you get when you go with lower end coilovers...)

What i do here is run the sales department. And about the coilovers the reason why they bounce is because we have the worst suspension. Now if you change your shocks and but after market shocks the car will ride alot better.

i actually thought the stock suspension on my 02 was pretty damn good.. wasnt bouncy and was very comfortable.. now that i lowered it and put 18s on, it rides like crap but its all good.

The stock '02 suspension is much better than the '01... Either way i'm gonna be changing my shocks, but i'm gonna remove my DropZone coils and I'm gonna put Neuspeed springs because I don't wanna take the chance of ruining a set of Koni Yellows...

The spec's I've read for the DropZone springs for the 7th Gen Civic is 2.0" of drop. I've currently got Neuspeed Sport springs installed (1.75/1.5 drop) and need to know if anyone can confirm that DropZone truly lower the vehicle 2". Also are these springs manufactured to ISO9001/ISO9002 standards? Do they meet or exceed TUV, DIN and SAE standards? How are these springs designed and manufactured?

Will they sag? Are these things even any good?
