    Default Function form Type I

    My next upgrade will be coilovers. I have my eye on the Function Form Type I's.I have done alot of research, and so far 95% of people have had very positive feedback.

    So i figured i would ask IA what everyones opinion is on this setup.
    especially if you are running these coilovers.
    Thanks

    I have a friend that knows alot of people in the industry. He was saying that alot of companies support F and F becuase of promotional reasons and many of the inside guys dont really care for them for many reasons, mainly poor construction. But I have heard they ride decent if you are just looking for a daily driving setup and something affordable. Keep in mind they are made in taiwan and they have no adjustable preload. Check out pic performance coilovers, they are about the same price but seem to be constructed better and they have adjustable preload, good shit. Good luck man, Im sure whatever u choose will be good. My wife has GC/koni and they are great! I ride on skunk2 setup and its shitty as hell, I'll be upgrading soon as well.

    I have a few friends running on type 2s and are completely happy with them. In fact I am tempted to switching from Tein SS to the Type 2s.

    Yea, wasnt too sure if they did lol. I hear buddy club is good for the price as well. Im sure F and F is just fine but look at the welding/contruction compared to others. Just a thought =)

    I had the Type I's on my CB7 and they are a moderate setup at best. Yes, they were cool looking but the ride was slightly on the soft side for me. But the Type II's are where it's at.
