Icon2 Best coilovers to slamm your car?

I currently have Tein basics on my EK, but they dont even go that low. I heard Skunk2 and Function And Form coilovers would slamm your car, but that the ride quality aint that good.


Any opinions on any coilovers would really help me out ...

How low can they go? Are you talking from experience?

There's a Function and Form thread somewhere on here, those guys seem to not have any trouble getting their 'EJ/EK' chassis pretty low.

I'm going to say this because I cannot believe you people cannot read anything before you post nowadays. There is a slammed thread on this very forum. As of me writing this it was only on page two. Do you people really need everything handed to you these days? This is the internet age! Everything at your fingertips but it seems like more and more people don't even take advantage of it!

And then this.
You CANNOT ride slammed AND have a smooth ride!

This thread never needed to be posted.

I would agree with Marc normally, but I was talking to Andy the other day and he informed me that if I wanted a slammed set up it could be built no problem. With that being said, AMR is pretty much your only choice.

I can almost guarantee you that if the OP is talking Tein Basics, Function & Form and Skunk2, AMR is not in his budget.
Budget. Would be nice to know what budget you're working with.

You would if you researched. Call up Andy and see if he has a set that he'd part with. These are custom $1200 suspension components but if an order was never picked up and is sitting on a shelf he might part with them. I'm just speculating mind you.
