Whatsup guys? I just saw on ebay an OBX coilover kit without the shocks for $155. Does anyone know how these are and if the price sounds right? Again, thanks you all for the help.

Crap.  OBX is a knockoff company.  If you want a cheap coilover, go ground control, they're at least good quality.

The only OBX piece I would trust on my car are the strut braces.  It's hard to screw that up.

obx is low quality as aka said unless all you want is a drop for your car and not performance then they are alright but then you shouldn't belong in this forum  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>

Unless someone knows otherwise, I believe the only sleeve-type coilovers worth anything are the ones made by Ground Control.  The rest are worthless as far as any kind of performance in concerned.
