i'm pretty sure the mugens are not coilovers.

i actually liked the idea of a very slight drop, but a lot of the mugen pics i have seen don't inspire the aesthetic/performance balance i was looking for.

the j's seems to drop it just a tiny bit more, while still offering good performance. i think i know what suspension i'll be getting now!

I'm pretty sure everything is nearly identical on the two suspensions. Either way good buy in my opinion.

Yep the Upper Pillow mounts honestly the whole factory set up pretty good for ride comfort but it pretty bad for a performance cal set up . On the flip side the J's Fit was so hot it didn't need the model too look good

I'm confused. So does the J's suspension package fit the USDM Fit?

You can buy a J's spring and damper kit from AJ-R that they pre-mod to fit the USDM Fit. I think it requires something like drilling the holes on the bottom mounts of the front suspension? Could be wrong though.

It was for sale on this thread (scroll down a little bit):
