maybe because coilovers were designed for the track and to be adjustable, not to tuck the tires into the fender for a "stance" fad that only half of the car enthusiasts actually thinks look good. fucking dumbass ricer mentality of "only what I think looks good is what actually looks good:

I personally think cars look better with a little bit of wheel gap, maybe a cm or 2 of black space between the top of the tire and the lower edge of the top of the wheel arch.

I am getting coilovers for my car next week and I am also not slamming my car. Coilovers have so many advantages over any spring strut comobo out there!

i think what mr. allmota is saying, is the same thing i said, if you want function over form.. the FUNCTION & FORM coilovers shouldnt have been his best choice. They are the "dumbass ricer mentality" choice of suspension....

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!

having a slammed car isn't the ricer mentality, the ricer mentality was EJ saying that these coilovers are pointless if not slammed. That was a stupid thing to say because he called the thread a "fucking dumb ass thread" just because it didn't fit what he thought looked good. JITB, you know I don't agree with the VIP style, but I don't bash you for it, or say it's wrong, I just say I don't like it. You know I also find myself drooling over half of the threads you post, so don't think I am saying riding low is not correct. But EJ acting like only what he would do with that equipment is the only right thing to do is very close minded and ignorant. So I was saying "fucking dumb ass ricer mentality" to mock "fucking dumb ass thread".

As for Function Vs. Form Vs. Function AND Form-->Maybe he likes having the options open, and wants to make the resale value of the car better by being able to sell it to the community that'll be able to go the slammed or track route with the same setup.

Wow, you speak as though you THINK you know me.. watch yaself, my car is on full Coilovers as well.. it allows me the freedom to do as i please, slam my car or raise it up at anytime.. Many have expressed their opinion on his decision to drop bread on these when he could have accomplished his desired ride height for cheaper with the same ride quality.. But you single my comment out, Lol.. when he tracks his car i will make sure i pay homage to him for putting his suspension to "good use".. You then turn and say you like wheel gap, is that not your opinion.. i dont see anyone gettin on you for it, you respond like its your car or as if he is your :idb: .. anyway you do your thing and i will do mine..

[1989_crx_si]

Do you even track your car?

[mocha latte cupcake]

[blacknightteg]

lol alright. im not sure when i will be able to have em installed but ill let you know man.

[bigs]

sweet thread.

[Captain-Obvious™]

Don't worry... I'm gon' make him go slammed.

[RL...]

I have some goodies on their way as well...

[DVSRX-7]

this is not a teaser!



but cool anyways!

[Gabe]

good choice but is pointless to have them if ure not going to expand the whole capability of the setup. u can drop the car so low it can almost lay frame with function forms and no matter how low you go the quality of the ride is not going to change and is what i love about mine.

[blacknightteg]

ill just let yall see it when there installed. till think. just keep hatin.

[JITB]

dont try to install them yourself.. we dont want you to break something...lol

but if your not gonna slam it, you could have went OG and got an eibach pro kit...lol

[blacknightteg]

na. im not doing em myself. and i wanted to get these because i have good reports about em. it will be lower then it sits now just not freaking to the top of the rim like every other honda on the site.

[oneSLOWex]

Just wait till you go a little lower.....then you will want more....its like crack!

[JITB]

man you payed alot of money for a 2" drop...lol

[blacknightteg]

man you payed alot of money for a 2" drop...lol

if thats how ya see it. i see it as a good right, nice quality parts.

[JITB]

if thats how ya see it. i see it as a good right, nice quality parts.

naw its fine and good parts.. BUT! for the drop your looking for you could have gotten a cheaper coilover with a longer R&D and great quality, like a Eibach kit, or a Ground control,Koni,KYB. if you say you looked at reviews, but if you wanted a subtle drop.. and someone guided you to function & Form, you didnt get good advice....lol But its still a good purchase...you might as well slam it..

[blacknightteg]

i will never in my life slam a car.

[sixonefive]

very cool...i need to get coilovers so bad

[blacknightteg]

lol i love this peer pressure to slam. its very amusing.

[JITB]

DONT BE GAY TWIST DOWN ALL THE WAY

[blacknightteg]

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.

[SLOWR/T]

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
