My first McPherson strut set up just finished! Thanks Andy!

Going on this. Sorry this is the only pic I actually have of her.

 

So what is the story here for those of us that don't know?

 

Badass coilovers from a badass suspension builder. Andy@AMR.

 

I think he's going to have 3 cars now with AMR coilovers

Once I get my H2B swap done in March, Paint/Suspension is next on the list.

 

FA5 TW Civic Si, I will post pics of my before and after

Yes EK, DB8, and now this.

 

I literaly saw the title, and was going to come in and say, " becuase his coilovers are nicer then yours''


Can we expepect a review?

 

Yes a review will happen.

 

Nice! What spring rates?

 

400F/500R according to Andy for street on the Si this is perfect. Plus this is my weekend fun car most likely will never see the track, maybe a mountain or 2.

 

Ahhh, I am so jelous.



Deffinetly a baller.

 

One day.

 

I keep tellingmy self that.

 

great way to spend some cash ... nice pieces ..

 

Seriously not a baller, the way I see it I'm cheaper than you guys. Lifetime warranty means I won't have to pay for these things again. If I was baller Motons would be used for daily driving and I would send them to get rebuilt once a year. I could have went Koni/GC for these spring rates but for the McPherson strut set up,,the Koni's are inserts and laziness kicked in. Everyone could afford a set if they follow EK forever's $$ saving guide. If I did that my damn self I would own a house and not need to rent an apt. The secret to buying these was skipping my drinking weekends and home lunch for about a month or two. Oh and breaking up with the gf didn't hurt on saving $$. Haha!

I was the first to respond to that review! One of the best till this day!

 

Hopefully mine comes in soon! Ordered them 11/28. Nice to see another person with AMRs in HI.

 

That's going to be very stiff on a strut based car...

 

Not really... Look at the stock spring rate for an RSX, 279f/458r. They need pretty high rates, especially in the rear. Extremely high in the rear if you want any sort of performance out of the car. Like freaking 1000# springs. Due to the design, the ride quality isn't as harsh as it'd seem with such high rates. I'd believe it that 400/500 for the OPs car would be fairly comfortable.

 

My other 2 cars got them too! Love them on the double wishbone set up! I remember on my first set someone asked me if I think it was worth the extra $$? My response was, it was so good I bought anothet set for my daily driver! Now doing it again for my pretty car!

 

Which is why my $9 an hour *** is about to drop $5,000 on one of the baddest H2B swaps ever in the middle of March I graduate this summer, which is nice too

I wouldn't know what to do with a real job.

 

HAHA. Yea, i did kick myself when I bought my skunk2 coilovers.

I need to take a look at the saving guide. I deffinetly need to start saving money!
I need to stop drinking, buying lunch at work, ah yea. That is my killer. I work at the mall, food is really expensive.

<----- Drinking coors now.

 

Nice man I just got pics of mine sent to me in process of getting built .. I own a dyno blue fa5 that has these and ccw lm5's coming in the next weeks ! I can't wait to hear reviews and see a ton of pics ( hopefully install) because they are my first set thanks !

 

Welcome to Honda-tech. I hope you'll come back and write us a detailed first impression

 

Stop hatin'

 

what is this 'saving guide' you speak of?.....i need to get slapped with it everyday lol.

 

I haven't found it, although, heres the basics.

Do you drink? Stop
Do you smoke? Stop, you're body will thank you, as will the wallet.

Do you eat out a lot? Stop.

basicly anything you don't need to live, kill it for a few months, and watch the c notes stack up.
