***CaliGuy*** · 11-01-2006, 05:35 PM

Those amr's don't look like a bad idea...

King Bob · 11-01-2006, 08:10 PM

I was quoted 985 shipped. I will be sure to post here when I get them and let you guys know how they are. And if I dont you can always track me down on clubcivic.com I am much more of a regular there.

EDIT: also the amr have a lifetime waranty.

It says you choose your own spring rates. What rates did you choose? Do they help you in the selection? I'm sort of a noob when it comes to spring rates.

those things are the same as all the other overseas manufactured units i.e. megan racing ksport. the only difference is you choose the springs rates which ksport also lets you do

F.I.A.T · 11-05-2006, 11:21 PM

most of those other manufacturers also offer the at least a year. hyaundai offers 10 year that doesnt mean you want one

hazeman · 11-05-2006, 11:36 PM

So AMR has a set available for the 06 si or what?

Black_civic_Si · 11-06-2006, 12:47 AM

King Bob · 11-06-2006, 01:45 AM

King Bob · 11-09-2006, 06:25 PM

ImTipSi · 11-09-2006, 10:02 PM

congrats on the purchase bob..what spring rates did you end up getting and what are your future planned mods?

ImTipSi · 11-09-2006, 10:10 PM

hey king bob just seen your post on honda-tech and seen your from Houma, La?? I have some family over there, i'm from lafayette but currently going to school in Monroe..Can't you install your coilovers sooner haha?

King Bob · 11-10-2006, 12:04 AM

spring rates are 6k front and back andy assured me thay wont bottom out and that they are full tested and if they do Ican send them back to beef up the springs. I have i/h/e and a short shifter, progress sway bar goes on tomorrow when it comes in, up next is some shifter bushings, but in the long term I plan on building the engine to take advantage of the 93 octane we get around here, looking for 250 whp n/a . Hytech is about to realease a package to achieve just this so I may go that route
