Fortune Auto 500 W/ Swift springs *SHORT REVIEW* - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

i feel like its too low

___________________________________________
so ive logged over 1000 miles in less than a week and i wanted to post some thoughts. keep in mind that ive never had coil overs on any car before.

first i cant thank the guys at ft86speedfactory.com enough. Jeremy and Yo are amazing in every way and i will be throwing my money at them for anything i need.

the one thing i was worried about the most with the fortunes was if they would go low enough. someone told me they wouldnt. well they did. i have since raised my car to 1 finger gap cause it was too low initially. the car now sits pretty nice IMO.

i wont bore with too many details. basically the coils are amazing. the ride quality is great. i am a DD'er and will probably never track this car so maybe its overkill but who cares. for the price and the quality, i dont think these can be beat.

just check the new superstreet magazine for a really good write up. and if youre thinking about these or any coils in this price range, just get them. you will be very happy. make sure to contact the guys at ft86sf first

theyre going on on Monday. i cant frickin wait

thanks again Jeremy and Yo at ft86speedfactory.com

if anyone knows what settings are good for DD, let me know. i do like it to be on the stiff side

Fortune Auto 500 W/ Swift spring upgrade and roller bearings

these are going on too

wow. no one has anything to say ?

bakerr6 · 07-13-2013, 09:20 AM

I would but I have no experience with those products. They look nice though. Congrats!

Congrats. I'm not trying to be rude here, but WTF do you want us to say? Not all of us have F500's and Stance LCA's. And most of us also have lives to attend to instead of sitting on a forum responding to every thread.

thanks. i hear you and i understand. but when i see 90 views and no one can say anything, its annoying and confusing. if i see someone post something i usually will give them props or advice cause i know thats what theyre looking for and it only takes a few seconds out of my day.

You asked a specific question about the settings. 90 people obviously didn't have an answer. Be patient.

the silver bullet built by gt86speedfactory uses the fortunes

it wasnt about that. that was a BTW thing. i was just excited that the coils arrived and i know a lot of people are trying to decide on coils and so i thought a few pics would make people smile like it did for me.

the settings question is just an after thought

No experience on the Fortunes, but I did look at them before I purchased my coilovers. FT86speedfactory has been running them and they love them. Hope they turn out well and when you get them on post a review for others after you to refer to.

will do

Buddy has them on his Legacy GT with 10k/8k springs. Fortune valves them to the springs. What is stiff to you? I think they are very comfortable. Not stiff at all to me. Absorbs bumps very well.
