haha what's their problem with it? Some people just won't understand

 

Picked up a set of these for my beater wagon. All the way down and even ditched the lower jam nuts.

Nowhere near low enough.

 

Just the usual crap about being too hard to go over speedbumps and stuff. I'm like "so what?" that's the price of being slammed fools!

 

Is there a difference between the type 1's for 92-95 and 96-00 for civics? Spring rates, brackets gaps, etc? I'm guessing spring rates for the eg's are stiffer than for the ek's? I'm looking to buy one for my ek hatch that came off an 92 si, and want to make sure they fit/are applicable.

thanks!

 

Yeah Baby...Form Over Function All Day!

 

Got these Monday!

 

yikess!
howd that happen?

 

oof! is that the perch? u mustve flown n crashed on one wheel?!

so ur saying stay away from form and look for sumthin more functional...?

so back to my first question, anyone know if theres a difference btwn the 92-95 and the 96-00 type1 fnfs? thanks

 

here my db7 on sum ff type 1 wha u ladies think?

 

Who you callin ladies?

 

Wagons dont drop as much as the other cars from what I hear. These go low man, if you would of done your research you would of known. Deal with it, its still going to be low...

Spring rates are the same. 10k 6k for EG, EK, EF, DC2, DC2 Type R and DA.

I think they might fit with some modification, this has been covered many times so Im sure the info is out there. I think all you need is EG LCAs though but dont take my word for it.

Sucks, not sure how that happened. Did this happen under normal use or was it the result of hitting a huge pothole or something of the sort?

You can upgrade Type2 springs to Swift but not Type 1s, this is what I read somewhere, Im not sure how that would work though, they both look the same size but I would just stick with the regular springs they come with.


I love my type 1s, I have no issues with them. They can be a bit harsh in REALLY bad roads but thats the same with any coilover with spring rates like these. 10K is pretty high for garbage *** roads like the one I was in last week. It was so bad, even in the nicest car you would still feel it a lot Im sure. Other than those roads they ride damn good.

 

ok thanx for info. an EG LCA wouldnt fit in my ek though.

 

^^ you have to swap the bushings out between LCA's if you want to use EG/DC coilovers on an EK

 

i dont know if its my crappy *** dx seats or im starting to get old or the rebound on my shocks is getting ugly. an a 40 min drive my back literally started hurting because the freeway bumps felt really harsh now. whenever i hit a bump the car only bounces one time (as opposed to the ricer 5x10^6 bounces) but the bounce is a long deep and high bounce. i dont remember it being that bad before.
just a thought.

 

Type 1's and I love them!

 

How long have you had them?

 

for about 5 months roughly 6,000 miles

oh and i bought them neww from weaksauce

 

anyone have type 1's on a da integra i heard theyre a crappy ride and springs sag quickly any light on that ?

 

EXTENDED TOP HAT IDEA!

Might be getting these for my daily soon. Bump for more pics.

 

my front right ff type 1 coil has developed a weird noise...only when i go over fast little bumps...sounds like its bottoming out...took the coil apart and it seemed fine didnt see anything loose, and its def coming from the coil, i lifted up my car and put pressure on the front right tire up and down and you can hear it faintly...weird


other than that drives fine, anybody else have this problem? and what sucks is that the road to get to my house is REALLY ****ed, and its been like that for a while...maybe i ****ed up my coil who knows

 

so when installing, you are not suppose to mess with the preload? cant you just set it back to stock, which is 5mm iirc?

 

they come preloaded right out the box and also they are set at their lowest setting

 

How many miles have you had them on for approximately?

 

lol idk...had em about a year, i dont drive my car THAT much...maybe put gas every 2 weeks and i get like 290 miles per tank..i dont feel like doing math lulz
