I have them and love them, they are a little on the stiff side but will not bottom out on anything like my Eibach/Tokico's would.

damn i was planning on getting Function&Form.

what are the spring rates on the set that yo.u have elite?

my friend has these on his ef hatch and he says they work great. Im thinking about picking some up for my Ej1.

i've heard nothing but good stuff about them. I would def get the type II's though.

mormonboy

do those say AMR Engineering? arent AMR's different from function forms? amr is some independent guy that sells them in the marketplace isnt it?

Type II's are awesome. I have them on my 98 coupe. Im tuckin tire all the way around and theyre set at 18 (stiffest setting) for my daily. Perfect ride. Im not a wuss like most of HT that says its too stiff. I rode 6 hrs to NY like that, and my back felt great when I got there.

I was saying they were stiff compared to my Eibach/Tokicko set up, I love them they are a great affordable way to get top notch suspension set up.

I think he got one of the few first sets...

in the past amr's website showed the f2 logo on it... and i think the type1s were sort of a joint dev... i think.. - not confirmed with f2 and amr.. just assuming.. like an ***...

but now f2 has a type 2 and amr came out with a new set...

still waiting for someone here on ht to post a "OMFG MY AMR/F2 BLEW!!!!" if we don't get that in a year or two then we know they last more than that and are still running strong..

unlike the k-sport phase that happened a year ago...

AMR's are F2's just with custom spring rates.

Thats what I have. It definitely took some getting used to after I rode on S-Techs for a year, but I love them. I only wish that I had the money to buy new springs for it. I want a firmer ride. LOL

What is the swift spring upgrade??

Guam_CiviC619

I believe they are a JDM spring manufactuerer. Their springs are also lighter.

F2 and swift have teamed up offer with purchase of a new set up for addition cost (like a option) to replace the standard springs and go with swift springs with rates of your choice to the properly valved strut.... u get the standard springs and swifts...

Nice set up, how do those compare to the springs that came with the F2's? How much were they?

S@nt0s

lighter... and its a overall feel/responce... not to knock the standard springs but but you cant compare a steak from a steak place to a steak from red lobster u know what i mean???
