I was doing a little research an excuse me if I'm wrong but function an form & HT Spec coilovers the exact same thing just different name right?

 

^pretty much.

 

Yeah, but the HT-Spec ones are tuned specifically for the TL, or TSX. I believe it has something to do with the spring rates.

 

Awesome thanks guys do y'all know if the give thensame drop amount?

 

Get the HT Spec ones, those go really low.

 

Glad to be onboard!

 

Sweet thanks bro yea I was sad when Emmanuel didn't wanna sell his anymore haha

 

HT-Spec ones for sure can drop your car so low that it'll be sitting on the side skirts... But you can also go as high as stock height.

If I could do it all over I'd get the HT-Spec Type 2 with the 32-way damping adjustment. I have the Type 1 (version 1) that I bought for $599

 

So there's a type 1 version 1&2 and a type 2 version 1&2? Does the 32 damping adjustments really make a big difference? Cause my friend has the damping adjustments on his vdub an he's never adjusted them. But I'm planning on slamming mine so would I really need the damping adjustments?

 

I can guarantee you'll almost never mess with the dampening. Also, only version 2 is available now for the type 1.

 

It depends on your goals, Gee.
for what its worth, its spelled "damping" and not "dampening"

damping allows you to firm or soften the shock, which allows for better rebound.
so, if performance is your main goal, I would get a shock that has damping control.

BUTT, if all you want to do is look cool and want a stock like ride, then opt for a coilover that doesnt have this ability. as it will be cheaper, hence the F&F type 1.

 

Justin to the rescue!

 

^^^Niiice! really preciate the help guys!

 

to Justin's point, since you say you want a slammed look and I'm sure you want to minimize rubbing on fenders, then go for the ones with adjustable damping. With adjustable damping you can make it as stiff as possible, which will help minimize the shock 'rebound', and in turn will help reduce the chance of rubbing, as much as can be controlled by the shock anyhow.

 

^^mmm good point there to

 

you may have to ditch your front strut bar if you get the adjustable ones.

 

If you get the Type-2 with damping adjustment, it wouldn't hurt to add the RV6 strut bar, front + rear camber kit, and a 24mm progress rear sway bar while you're at it haha.

All that will add up to over $1,000 though

 

Wowzers lol well I wanna run a max of -5 maybe less camber in the rear is that what the rear camber kit would be for?

 

Lol -5? Why would you want to do that? The camber kit it what allows you to run negative camber.

 

is there even a camber kit that would allow that much negative camber? the ones I know of only go as far as -2.

I'm running at -1 now, only to ensure the control arm clears fully without hitting anything. At 0 I was scraping metal but slight negative camber helped clearance.

at -5, you'll have to buy new tires often, like monthly lol.

 

I'm at -3.5 I think and my tires are in great shape. The TOE angle is what eats the tires.

 

Lol idk I just like how neg camber looks in the rear lol and I like the poke of the wheels

 

Your cars gonna look like its taking a dump with -5 camber lol

 

^^^ hahahah good I wanna shit on other cars! :P
