Might want to look at some KW's while you're at it as well, a great set up here for a good price:

I hope that helps!

Life expectancy or lift expectancy? I'm no good at interpreting spelling/autocorrect errors..

lol sorry life. how do they hold up to hard driving like drift autox

markmatley 10-15-2012 05:45 PM

If you drive hard on them, or on any system, you will have to rebuild them, or with Fortune Auto, you can send them in for a rebuild. Unless you're sporting something rally proven...then it would be bombproof autoX or drift autoX.

If I only had a test bench to test coilover rebuilds and valves....

I've ran them on my Evo 9. Had the car for almost 5 years with no need to rebuild. Of course I didn't autoX or autoX drift with them. I might be biased on how great they were for me... :thumbup:

If you buy the KW's and don't like em, Ill buy them off of you. I highly doubt you'd hate the KW's... If I get my Fortune's in soon, you can check them out when I install them. Ill let you know.
