praises of zeus and Megan

Just chiming in to sing the praises of Zeus, not that I have to of course, and Megan Racing.

Zeus: awesome seller. great guy. most definately on your side. Fantastic pricing.

Megan: great product. great warantee. great customer service. They'll go the extra mile.

-I will expand on the last point: I ordered my MR coilovers a while ago, and told Zeus I'd need em by this past friday to put em on before the MachV meet. He passed this info on to the boss at Megan, and so this boss said he'd have em to me by then, and that he'd eat the cost if neccessary to get em' to me. So as the story goes, they got caught in customs until thursday! Since this guy was true to his word, he had them overnighted for $200 to me to have them here by fri. morning. That's customer service. That's what makes loyal buyers.

*On a side note, I have various MR exhaust comonents that have also withstood the test of time and are just as shiny SS as when they came out of the box.

-please dont turn this into a X vs. Y thread... I just wanna give a good report of my dealings w/ both Zeus and MR.

As for fitment/functionality: flawless.
*one thing could be made better... the instructions... quite broken english. I still need to figure out exactly how you know which damping setting you're on. Install is a snap though, and so is height adjustment, I just jack the car and slide underneath w/ the tool, and I'm done.

Yes, you had inquired about them before Megan put their minimum pricing in effect for distributors. I was still getting out a few "test sets" to people I believed would wring them out. Megan lost their *** on them at that shipping price. However, you were promised them before the 25th, and the head Honcho over at Megan told me he would make good on it... keep me updated on you progress!!!!

finally installed the megan coilovers i got from zeus, and i love them. i lowered the car 1.5" in the back and matched the rideheight in the front. the stance looks much more aggressive. camber is set at -1.5 in at all four corners, and i set the stiffness to the hardest setting for the time being. the ride quality isn't that harsh, which is a pleasant surprise. cornering ability is much better, and steering response has GREATLY improved. thanks for all the help, Zeus.

I just installed my Megan Coilovers and it is a night and day difference from the S-techs I was previously sporting. I am getting aligned tomorrow, but the car already holds much better in high speed corners and rides smoother than the old setup.
