Default 1st Gen CR-V Coilover suggestions?

Hey guys first off I would like to say I just joined this forum to get some information for a build I would like to do for my 2000 Honda CRV! I really want to know what are good coil overs for the CR-V. I did a lot of researching on the forums already and have been getting mixed thoughts about which ones to choose! Right now I'm debating on some Form and Function Type 1 coilovers or D2 Racing coil overs. If anyone knows of any better ones please let me know! Any suggestions/information is a big help!! Thanks again and I am glad to join this forum! I will leave you with some pics of how my CR-V looks as of now.

Fortune auto coilovers are the best! I have them on my car and they are some top notch stuff. I know the owner, and the shops race proven cars on their basic setup is a tribute to the quality. Check out their site.

Those are some good coilovers for sure but they are a bit out of my price range. I also saw some Yellow Racing Coilovers for the CRV and they seem to be pretty good aswell. Anyone have a review on them?

They actually seem pretty good to me, they are high quality and rebuildable, they are also made in Taiwan compared to D2's and kSports that are made in China. Here is there site, tell me what you think http://www.yellow-speed.com/dynamic-pro-sport.php

If I had the money I would so go for the Fortune Auto Coilovers, they really look nice and have some excellent build quality.

Looked up that site and they didn't have any specs or info regarding suspension for our year CRVs.

They do, it took me awhile to find out but here is the link

http://www.yellow-speed.com/products...pe=&nowp=2&jp=

if that doesn't work just click "coilover application" click "honda" and on the bottom go to the 2nd page and it shows the ones for the CR-V

yeah, they are def taiwan, mine came straight from the factory since the ones i ordered were not stocked over here.

keep us posted when you decide. i really do like d2, i had some and a friend of mine did as well. they really arent bad as far as the cheapy stuff goes. i have tein basics on my 350z right now that i would trade for d2 in a second.
