That's rather vague.

What exactly are you asking about?

great coils, once again for the money. Good enough that were looking to start distributing them. Not as good as some of the super high cost options out there, but good enough for the street/track enthusiast who isn't looking to go breaking records every track session.

Only heard good things about them. Both Type I's && II's are fairly priced, and both of my friends love them! They are even dampening adjustable!

Heres mine front aren't even maxed out yet but the rears are maxed out with 1 ring removed. I plan on switching to either Pics or Konis/GC because I dont like my function form coilovers.

^ Why don't you like that? Is it because of how it rides? I'm actually thinking of picking up the Type One's soon.

I had it raised higher than that about a finger gap but it still rode pretty rough. As far as the adjustable dampening I cant feel the difference? it feels the same at every setting.

I don't understand the purpose of having your car "slammed" for the street. Why do you have it so low?

My F2s were crap. They were the worst dampers I've ever ridden on in my life.
