99% of people who lower their car do it 1x and never mess with it again. Just get a quality spring/shock combo and be done with it. Personally, I went Fortune Auto 510 w/swift spring upgrade since I could (but don’t) daily the car and road race it. Fortune Auto customer service is the absolute best as well, which is as important as the product itself.

@FitmentIndustries 5 месяцев назад

I'm a big fan of the Fortune Autos too! I plan on upgrading my 500 series to the 510 after this season on track with them - Sam

@Newyen6MT 4 месяца назад

I was the same but the adjustablity with coilovers to dial in the fitment and camber plates is a major upgrade. I previously had H&R springs with Tein Endura Pro Plus shocks. Now I am on Tein Flex Z but they ride a little soft and floayt with the twin tube dampers and 8/6 spring rate. I just picked up some FA Gen 8 500 10/6k swifts. I can't wait to see how they feel.

Thanks for the rundown. Looking to put wider wheels (Konig Heliogram 18x8.5 +42 from Fitment Industries of course) on my 2023 Mazda 3 Turbo hatch with an eye toward coilovers in the near future. How do I go about researching/determining fitment and clearance issues. It looks like with the new wheels I'll have maybe about half inch clearance on stock shock strut. Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

Get the maxspeedingrods t7's for budget coils. Just make sure you tighten up all the nuts. They are by far the best bang for the buck on honda/acura.

@TheRealMrRoyal 5 месяцев назад

Next step up for $650 would be godspeed. I've had several of each as well as bc skunk2 and function form. For non track cars I never got more from the more expensive ones.

@FitmentIndustries 5 месяцев назад

I've ran Truhart arms on my IS300 but haven't had firsthand experience on their coilovers yet. At that pricepoint I'd say save up a little more and look at Tein. You might lose some adjustability but you'll gain some durability from what I can see. Biggest issue I have seen with "cheap" coilovers is the bushings wearing out super fast and then you have an awful ride quality with some clunks too. - Sam

@prospect2664 2 месяца назад

What would your suggestion be for coilovers: 2013 86, will also drive when it snows, roads can be quite bumpy in my town, planning on tracking it during the summer (like maybe once a month or so) and then do some winter drifting. It will mostly be used for either short trips (15km per day) or for 450+km trips every month and like 1k+km every month total. Will most likely set 1 ride height, that suits both summer and winter and idk if it matters, but planning on keeping it as a project car, soo... like 300-400hp+ in the future (few years into the future tho)

@matthewheitzman5993 3 месяца назад

Have an idea of what you want before installing them I went from lowering springs to USED cheap Godspeed coilovers To BC racing DR coilovers I wanted the out of the box experience with the BCs thinking they knew what they were doing The BCs are WAY too low and WAY too stiff. Made the ride unbearable and the rear feels like it's on a stiff pogo stick I've narrowed it down to they just put way too much preload on out the box. The more weight I can pack in my trunk, the more comfortable the ride gets And yes, the Godspeed were actually good I loved them (the Godspeeds and BCs are on 2 different (but the same) mini coopers) I had adjusted the Godspeeds myself before install bc they were all out of wack. I literally had them on 0 preload (finger tight) and 3/16 damping

Quick question, I seen that you have the Fortune Autos on your IS300. I have a IS300 but for me its moslty going to be a daily/touge car when i want to rip it around some corners, i have seen that the BC coilovers have a lot of praise as well, but what would u recommend in getting the fortune autos, or the bc - that being DS or ER to have that adjustability and that comfort/ready to track at any point. I also just want to bite the bullet and do it right the first time then having to buy some type of upgrade

@FitmentIndustries Месяц назад

You honestly can’t go wrong with either. For you IS I would go with Fortune Auto because you can get all the customization to fit your car perfectly!

I’ve been stuck trying to decide between Silvera NeoMax vs BC DS for my 92 civic hatchback with a B series swap. The car is gutted and has 100% suspension upgrades as far as adjustability and has a 4 point roll cage. It has the entry level Tein street basis now but I want to upgrade it. The car will be tracked but honestly be more street driven. Any advice would be great.

@Tht1Dude 4 месяца назад

Probably just with a paint, new wheels, and a little lower. Don’t do underglow or a ugly non-useful wing, and ridiculous stickers, and no other attachable things that aren’t functional (scoops, lips, etc.) if you choose a different color than the original, white wheels could look good imo. Ik paint isn’t that cheap though. Also just purely cleaning it, like the interior and exterior, engine bay, trunk, etc. will do magic, invest into some good cleaning products. Edit: looked 03 corrola on google to see it, if you have indigo ink, impulse red, or black, white wheels will look good. If it’s already in good condition keep the oem front bumper and wing (idk if there is aftermarket stuff but the oem stuff looks good) Just my opinion🙂

@karstgeo7290 5 месяцев назад

Folks miss the value and performance of a cup kit...good set of sport dampers (Bilstein, Koni) and springs can handle it all including track. Folks are stuck that you need all this adjustability that most folks don't understand or need. The money saved can be used for more track time that will greatly improve your lap times vs. thinking suspension mods will do a thing. Coilovers are cool but aren't necessary at all to hit the track and be fast (road course). Most folks buy coilovers for no other reason to get rid of "all that finger gap bro".

IMO if you can't swing KW V2/3, Öhlins, MAYBE a custom Fortune Auto set, or equivalent, just don't. If all you want to do is "go low" and you don't care about grip or ride quality, you can do that cheap/free.

@whiterabbit3464 3 месяца назад

Ummm Bilstein??

@springfever2002 2 месяца назад

Exactly what I was thinking. Personally, I Run the B14 coilovers, which does not have the adjustable dampers like the B16 and Cup series. However, they are amazing!!! I think a lot of car enthusiasts go for "The Look" and want heavy customization. Bilstein does not play that game. They make coilover systems that are track proven and ready to go. The one thing I notice people complain about with Bilstein is they are not very customizable. The car can be lowered maybe 1.25" from stock height, but any lower and the dampers fail. That leads to bad reviews as the people buying them are trying to lower their vehicles out of the spec of what Bilstein gives for their coilovers per vehicle application that they already tested to work. With Bilstein. The faster you go. The better they perform. The slower you drive. The harsher the ride.
