MFRT probably has the best price because they have Megan racing stuffs on sale once in awhile but the waiting time for parts might be alittle longer than some parts shop.

Every shop has give or take a few dollars similar in price.
Only difference is how much they add on top of it to get it in stock.
Obviously, it'll cost more the quicker you want it.
Or you can wait a bit until they do a big order.

For instance, MFRT has one of the cheaper prices in town, but they take forever, and you'll see tons of complaints about it.
Reason for this is because they do a big order as opposed to ordering a few at a time.

It also depends if the shop already has a bunch of parts to pick up from across the border.

not bad parts.

more like "entry" level parts just because theyre not "jdm" like cusco, blitz, or greddy etc.

theyre way better than chinese generic ching chong meow parts imo.

and heres another fact: their coil over for the 86 application came from the same factory and are actually the same stuff as the greddy badged one.


funny how nobody thinks T1R is crap.

people only say theyre crap because theyre not "japanese"


i had a set on my ae86 and they were more than enough.

$1200 brand new vs the ones from Tein which were 3500 bucks. the ones from Teins dont even have camber plates if I remember.

they were actually even better in quality than the K-sport coil overs...


still, great parts imo. sometimes its kind of pointless to be a brandwhore. what ever works, works. (exception of critical parts like tires, brake pads etc)

T1R... is not my favourite brand... but i've seen many a test-pipe, coilover, et al. Break from megan racing... it's just... cosmetic stuff i'd buy from them.
