Evo 8/9 Coilover Installation
#48
The ride quality is comparable to the mr bilsteins, save for reduced body roll (mostly in
Corners) which is a big improvement! I have no complaints about these at all. I never drove an Evo with upgraded springs + bilsteins, but compared to the other coilover brands I've driven on other cars these are great especially for the price.

First, I just want to say thank you to the OP for this thread.
I used this thread as reference for installing my Fortune Auto 500 series coilovers.
I just wanted to add a few pieces of information to the thread.
It appears that FA has changed the design of the rear coilover lower mount. In the original post, the lower mount is quite a bit bigger than what I have. I'm not sure if this is because I opted to go with the Swift Spring upgrade or not, but the difference in lower mounts changes the ride height drastically if you follow the measurements given by the OP.
The measurement I used was 3.5" in the rear. It seems to give the best clearance for my wheel/tire combination. I may end up dropping it a half inch lower when I roll my rear fenders.
Just wanted to give people a quick heads up if you're using this as a reference.
Thanks again to the OP.
