Nice outcome, loving the ride height.

 

Great write up and I loved the fortunes on my 240 they're a great company.

 

Thanks, are you based at mcdill?

 

No I'm currently at Lackland until I retire this month I finished my contract it's time for college.But my home is 10 minutes from Macdill.

 

That's cool I'm from Brandon. Always used to get haircuts at the bx

 

Nice to meet a neighbor.I've been looking for a car for when I get back do you know of anyone who has a viii or ix for sale?

 

No, sorry. They usually aren't for sale for very long before they get scooped up.

 

Fantastic write-up man, thanks for doing this I'm a big fan of Fortune Auto and their products. I'm in the process of making my Evo 9 a track car. For that reason i'm gonna go with the 510 series coilovers. But i'm sure the installation will be similar if not the same as your 500's. Thanks again for taking the time to put this together

 

No problem, Installing almost any coil over model will be almost the same; The main differences being how the ride height and spring rates are adjusted. Make sure you measure everything with a micrometer; counting threads is very inexact!

 

Trust me I know dude. I have Coilovers on my DD and was so OCD about settin them up. I triple counted everything to make sure it was exact.

 

Thanks anyways.I had a viii with 70k asking 13,000 clean title and I didn't jump on it worst regret of my life :/

 

That's cheap, however usually they have rebuilt titles in that price range. If you can find one with a clean title for around that, it's usually cost effective to fix whatever is wrong with it.

 

thats a bummer dude. that would've been a good pick-up

 

It was only problem was a blown turbo everything else checked out and it was blue

 

a blown turbo isn't that big of a deal. You could have easily picked up a used Evo 8 turbo for cheap or even a used Evo 9 turbo for a little bit more. hell the FP 71 HTA is only 1300 bucks and thats a nasty little turbo and a great replacement. Keep your eye out for another killer deal like that
