Megan Racing??

[scionmike]

Megan racing;anyone ever use any of there stuff? Because i was thinking of getting there turbo manifold just wanting feed back on there products.

[jdm free]

they usually have pretty decent products, but this is the wrong forum to put this in

[evomike]

Way wrong section but the products are usually trash, never last and are very very poor quality, the manifolds always crack and warp I'd stay away but that's me do what you want.

[jdm free]

arnt their suspension components pretty good

[Buster]

I dunno about their turbo manis but I had almost their entire line for the Spec V and they are high quality products. And their coilovers are top notch so I would like to know where you got that info from.

NO NO NO NO megan is crap the parts are all half assed made in china, the only parts that are ok to get are simple stuff like strut bars

NEVER GET SUSPENSION stuff like coilovers, RUCA, tension rods.........

Zilvia.net (240 forum) , a couple of friends with megan coils. Don't get me wrong "To each his own" its just everyone I ever talked to who tried megan suspension and motor parts say they are horrible, the only good things are exhaust (cheap and actually sound pretty good) and small stuff like strut bar.

If you like megan products, no problem, hope everything works good for you
I just heard mostly bad things about quality

[whitezenki]

Haha, Megan is good if your just gonna street your car, but arent ever gonna really abuse it. The springs wear down, the control arms are mass produced and sometimes shoddy, and when compared to the other parts they copied, they usually take last place because the lack of quality becomes obvious.

But if your jsut streeting your car, none of that matters really.

They are known for crappy products. There are years of engineering and research that goes into coilovers, Megan skips all that and attempts to copy someone else in the cheapest way possible.

They are the rotas and sportmaxes of suspension, you can rock them, but when it comes down to it, the quality just isnt there.

As far as Nissans go, I bought their catless header for my spec v 4 years ago. No cracks, no leaks nothing ran great. Bolted up as good as factory. The welds are also great. I just helped install a set of coilovers on my buddy's Legacy GT recently and was most impressed by the quality. Just as good as a set of TEIN Flex coilovers for Basic prices. I also have a few drift friends running them who are very happy with the quality. Its funny that you say the exhausts sound good. I personally think they sound beat lol.

PM JasterM5. He can tell you.

Turbo manifolds for cars that arent meant to have turbos are always going to be a touchy issue.

I would be ready to hear these same people say Perrin makes ****ty products also. Even if you are buying it to be a street car with extra oomph who drive a full on race car on the street anyways. Just stay away from that ebay crap.

[whitezenki]

The same factories that make that ebay crap make this megan crap too.
A guy on Zilvia went through Megan three times for RUCAs, and every time he was awarded with these:


Im being a hypocrite tho, I have megan toe arms and rucas, but i do plan on replacing them asap, and i am not impressed with the quality at all.

[Buster]

Oh really? You work there? This is all heresay. Have you ever owned a Megan product? I only defend them because I was very happy with the products. And all and I mean all of the people I know that own or have owned Megan products like them.

[whitezenki]

And this guys tie rods broke in 4 days:


4 days of street driving!!

sounds like more than just faulty products, lets see... maybe the car shouldnt have obscene camber with a drop about 4 cm from the ground. Thats not stressing the product.

[nissan240syan]

I only heard megan exhaust on my friends s14, i think it sounded good, but every car is different. Theres a guy on here who is sponsored by megan, "drift nasty" or sumthin like that, I talked to him at a 240 meet he says that he sometimes has to give back some stuff because the welds are horrible on it, so they are not consistent with the products.

[whitezenki]

Vince is gonna be upset im trashin them when i had him put them on about a month ago. haha sorrryyy

The aftermarket suspension components are suposed to handle crazy abuse and low ride height, if the cars werent abused and slammed then their would be no need for supporting mods.
