Help me decide!!

So, I'm planning on lowering my car soon (saving up for it already) and I was wondering what coilovers to get. I have three options to choose from: Function/Form Type II coilovers, Megan Racing Street Series coilovers, or T1R Coilovers.

Now this is what I know about each coilover:

Function/Form Type II coilovers (from a website):

  • one year warranty
  • 32 levels of dampening adjustments
  • dampening adjustments made with a knob that clicks at each level setting
  • steel construction of the lower mounts for maximum strength
  • adjustable ride height from bottom mount allowing driver to retain full shock travel while -- lowering the car
  • special oil lubrication able to withstand weather conditions from -40C to 200C
  • dual tube shock design for maximum ride comfort
  • wireless dampening adjuster (Wi-damp) available for most applications
  • 50 mm McPherson strut piston
  • 43 mm Double wishbone piston
  • Spring rates: 6kg front and rear
Megan Racing coilovers:

- Spring Rates: 5kg Front and 4kg Rear

- 32 Levels of Adjustable Damper

- Rubber Dust Covers.

- Adjustable Ride Height

- Aggressive Spring Rates

- Single-Cylinder Design

- Aluminum Brackets

T1R Coilovers (what I got from the AJ-Racing guys):

The coilovers are 24 way adjustable for dampening and ride height adjustability.

You can use the GD3 coilovers as a reference for photos since it is practically the same set up.

Now I'm wondering if anybody has the Function Form coilovers on their GE. Can you just tell me anything about it, pros and cons etc. As for the Megan Racing coils, I've already talked to a couple of people who has them on their car during the Wilson Park meet and I'm impressed. As for the T1R, not so sure because it is somewhat of a prototype and they're in Canada; also not sure if they have any warranties like Function/Form and Megan.

So any feedback would be welcome
