These aren’t maid in twain. There better quality than that. I saw a couple of their sponsored cars at a show over the weekend and they look solid. Heres their website www.f2autolife.com

Im not bashing them since I dont know anything about them... but you are saying that since you saw them and they "look solid" they are good.. do you have any other input other than that from anyone? cause that means nothing at all.

And just so everyone knows... our car HAS coilovers.. so saying you are replacing with coilovers really means nothing. A Macpherson strut setup or even our rear shocks are the definition of coilover (the spring sits over the strut). I know.. it is semantics.. but still sounds funny every time I hear it

Yea I know what you mean. I don’t know too much about them either. I’m waiting for one of my friends to get these in his EP3 to see how the ride is too make my final decision.

good idea, if he is already getting them, just be patient and see how they work for him quality-wise before buying

I forgot about Apex'i. It a simple fact that small companies like f2autofashion don't have the manufacturing facilities to build their own coilovers, nor do they have the money to brand a German or Japanese manufactured coilover, so they usually go with a Taiwanese company. Not that that is a bad thing, however it becomes a problem when you have multiple brand names and there is a manufacturing issue. I don't know exactly where f2autofashion gets their coilovers... the specs look just like BC-Racing, but if they're not from there, I guarantee they purchased them from one of these companies:

The Older type II that the OP was interested in, does come with camber plates
Those are old out dated pictures.

The New Type II redition that comes out in Late April/ Mid may, will have camber plates as well as a few new goodies and specs. We are excited. We have taken steps to always improve our product and brand in many ways, and look foward to the New Type II arriving. I will release some info officially on the forums in the next month.

Oh, and for the person that posted a bunch of links up, or people that hear or suggest BC makes our products, All incorrect info and far from the truth. D2 and Ksport are not made by them either. Just giving you guys some facts.
