If you planning on getting the FLT-1US Then i hope have a civic or integra. You must be talking about the FLT-A1US, just save a little more and get FLT-A2. You cant really compare them to HE they are in to different categories.

What kind of ride are you looking to get soft and streetable or balls out stiff?
FLT-A1 spring rates are 7/5kg while HE are 8/6kg not much different but you have to take everything into consideration.

HE have more dampening adjustablity 16 levels vs. FLTA1 5 levels while FLTA2 has 15 level dampening.

MSRP
FLTA1US = 1,200.00 Same for both.
HE = 1,360.00 or 1380.00 Depends S13 or S14.
FLTA2 =1,850.00 or 1,900.00 Depends S13 or S14.

HE will give more bang for your buck.

no, I think those might be sf-1s, but for sure not flt-a1us(they are blue).

dont buy JIC products IMO. they have destroyed their rep since they first got popular. i have heard too many negative things about them. i would buy HE's or kts (http://www.splparts.com/Parts/S13/Suspension/Coilovers.asp)

JIC may have had a bad rep in the past but things have changed. I have never had a problem with JIC at all.
