key kaos i have the same coilovers. i have read that the type 1's are better, which makes sence because they are more expensive. some people actually have converted their type 2's to type 1's by adding in the helper spring. the disadvantage to it is the lowest you can go is 2.5" front and 2.0" rear, not low enough for 808. and you probably are not going to lower as much as it can go, leave at least 5 threads. this is a quality coilover tho, and the only one for 6gc that is completely made in japan, tein actaully outsources some of their parts. everything fits perfectly, on other coilovers the brake line bracket needs adjusting, but not for these. the solid top mounts are quiet unlike pillowball such as cusco. the spring rates are good, not too stiff, not too soft. comfort isn't bad as long as the road is somewhat smooth, but obviously stiffer than a spring/strut combo.
