I have been on Megan's for 6 months now and could not be happier. I agree that there are other set-ups that may be better quality, but price was a big factor since I have two other modded cars to spend on besides the GS. The Megan's go low (had to raise it just to get it off the lift), no noises, and have 32 way dampening. They ride extremely well, but only time will tell.

D2 Has been in the racing scene for a long time.. A lot of the DTM race cars run on d2 suspension back in the 90s an up.. So i cant imagine them making a bad coilover for a car

i'm on d2racing coilovers and i'm very satisfied with these things. ksport is the econo-version of d2racing. most of my friends have megans and they're great too. and yes d2racing has a rich history of making suspension for DTM racing cars, even until now.

cliffs: can't go wrong with d2racing or megans

D2 on the DTM Mercs of the 90s was a telecom company now part of Vodafone, The taiwanese copied the logo to make people think they made parts for these cars

This bears repeating. The D2 that makes coilovers now had nothing to do with any components of DTM series race cars.

That's absolutely correct.

That does not mean that the D2 parts a bad though just that they used a no longer existing brand identity to promote their products.
