teaser alert

yall, keep this negative shit out of my thread please. i posted it in the car pics section because i wanted to and i felt it served more of a purpose here then it did in a "build" thread. you dont see me posting pictures of my "build" in this thread. if i did, i would have started from the day i got my damn car. i could honestly care less about whether or not you think it was smart for me to buy this type of coilover system when im not slamming my car. as 87 turbo said, ever take into consideration the idea of me selling it later on to someone whom, if i do not at some point track the car, will track the car? and he's right the way that you worded it seemed like you meant to say that if i didnt slam it whats the point of the coils? coils serve more of a purpose then just slamming like most of the honda "how low can you go" nutswingers on here. Besides, having your car slammed when racing is pointless unless the fenders are widened and the wheels still dont tuck the fender. i have never seen a track car tuck. correct me if i am wrong but i have not.

i do not care for your bickering. i made the decision to buy them because I wanted to buy them and im not going to renig my decision.

im all for criticism on this site, hell i do it in most of the damn vip slammed threads that are posted on this site so go right ahead. but when you just flat out say "wtf is the point in getting em when you're not going to slam it," the proper thing to have said was "why did you buy a set of coilovers when you dont want to drop it that much." and then I could have told you.

im not bitching and moaning about your opinions cause their your opinions, like you i have my pretty biased opinions on things. but i know where to keep my mouth shut or at least word it to where its a little more understandable.

Maybe he has a good reason he wants those specific coilovers? I could get some cheap $700 d2 coilovers but I am choosing to spend more money to get a better setup. Sometimes going the cheaper route isn't the best way to do things, there are some things you can skimp on, but I do not think suspension is one of them!

read my other post.. for the price of the FF he could have gotten a better setup that suits his style. But the FF coils are said to be the same as the K sports, and D2 anyway.

This is what we are saying about it.. if he isnt going to slam, i dont think these were the best choice, since he wasnt going for that look. A KYB - Koni - ground control - eibach basic coilover kit would have gave him exactly what he wanted if not better. instead of going with the FF brand that hasnt been around near as long as the other more reliable brands.

I was just going off what he said, which was that he read the reviews.. but the reviews are from the people he wants to seperate himself from...lol

If I'm not mistaken these allow you to change the spring rate, possibly even damper stiffness, independently from the ride height. ALL COILOVER SLEEVES just let you change the height, and the spring rate changes accordingly.

I'd pay the extra money for that versatility alone.

LOL at everyone telling him what to do and how he should have spent HIS money LOL. If the man want to buy them simply because he likes the color then what does it matter to everyone else? Shit put that car in the clouds then take pics and see where the thread goes
