Took my 4th set off tonight. Fuck these things pieces of shit. Now I wonder do I fight whiteline for a refund or have tony @FA20Club.com refund me. Either way I'm expecting a big pain in my ass.

So was the fourth set the newest revision or was it still the same old design? If you still have issues with the new revision, then I'd be worried. If its the old version, I would expect them to fail as well. Also, since you're replacing them, would you say that biggest issue was using the whiteline com-cs with your koni yellows?

there has been two revisions already. They are working on a 3rd. I have been through 4 sets of the 2nd revision.

I wouldnt blame the konis as you can see everyone else is still having the issue weather it be stock shocks or coils.

@Figo Are you joking? Do NOT buy the ComCs until WL figures out a solution.

I am still waiting for them to upgrade it. And I also find some other top mount like this. But have never seen anyone used them. Do u know any other good top mount in the market?

Group N, Raceng, HVT, and Vorshlag also come to mind for top mounts.

These beauties arrived today and I'll be installing them tomorrow. The build quality is subperb and I'll be running the HVT plates in conjunction with RCE Yellow springs and factory struts. There's an autocross tomorrow night so I'll report on my experience.
