Couple of mine right before I actually had to lift it up about half an inch in the front because it was too low. F&F Type ones with Function 7 Control arms w/ spherical bushings.

 

my wagon on type-1's still preloaded

 

lower the spring perches drops the point where the spring starts supporting the vehicle weight so the car will sit lower.

 

Looks dope!

 

by the way Jackie-O, did you mess with the preload at all or no? And was the front all the way down in those pics?

 

i was gonna get these but they dont go very low. heard the ride n ice tho

 

what do you mean they dont "go" very well?

 

i ment they dont go very low

 

my dc5 with plenty of threads to go, version type II, love them

 

lol i want to take pics soooo bad but im still putting the rears on cuz the lca bolts snapped =[ but once i get them on ill pist em up. its not on the stock 15s its on 16x8s with a +20 offset but the fronts are having trouble clearing all the way down so ima put on the camber kit and see what i can do. we'll see should be done this week

 

I kind of want to install these today, how hard is it? My friend is supposed to come over but he inst answering his phone!

 

might not compare to GC/Koni, but they obviously go pretty low. Actually i didnt realize this before but my buddys coupe was on type IIs.



looks dope

cool looking forward to them. Wheel specs sound great

Probably not too hard,i was planning on basing my install off of this article. A good DIY site in general http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto/c...r/coilover.php

 

Coilovers are easy to put on as long as the rear, lower strut bolt come out. If you're car has ever been through a snowy winter, then there's a good chance the bolt is seized. Getting the bolt out is a bitch.

 

^ thats low!
heres mine w 55/15 series tires all the way down up front

 

no where near low enough for me.

 

then gtfo of this thread buddy.

the stuff ur looking for is only achieved by hacking up ur car:
cutting shock towers, bending pinch welds and having ur tie rods hit ur frame.
might as well ride on ur rotors
whenever i look under my car my UCA are super close to my tower bars. and my ball joints are supper stressed.

 

calm down. geez!
all im saying is i was really bent on getting these coilovers, but a member told me they dont go very low so i passed.
im lower than that red civic on stock struts and ground controls LOL.
with that said i have heard the F&F ride great and really handle well

 

dude, they go lower than your car can actually functionally drop.

Maybe he doesnt have his **** all the way down.

 

wrong and wrong
. look up mines the black ej6, front all the way down.
and they do not go SLAMMED. i can go lower but from the pre-load perch but i wont touch it as it will void my warranty.
also i dont see the point of going any lower. as my UCA are like 2 cm. away from the shock towers.

 

^^^do you have any side shots of your coupe?

i dont understand how much lower you could possibly want the red coupe to be. Where will the front end of the car go?

 

Yeah I love that site. Thanks mate!


Yeah I pretty much just learned this on my own. Ive been spraying PB blaster for a week like 5 times a day and I tried to loosen it up tonight and I couldn't do it. I didn't have much space to work with the car on the ground but like it would be hard without leverage. That bolt is in there pretty good. My car has a very large amount of seized bolts

 

mines

 

if your still looking for these there is some one else selling the type one for under 600 with free shipping brand new

 

red coupe needs another two inches to be slammed.

 

Cut your springs and GTFO out ricer

Seriously bro, these are performance coilovers, they're aren't meant to have your car sit on the ground, they're meant to give it a functional drop. The **** I hear these days.....
