Best thing about FA. You call, they answer. You email, they respond. Whether you want the 500's or they're top of the line dreadnought series, they treat you very well and are very helpful. Respectable company.

 

I was going to order thru MAP also, but AWDMotorsports had better, faster customer service and was easier to order from... Just PM them, took several days for MAP to respond and after 3 inquiries, they also had best price. MAP website didnt have all the upgrade options for online ordering when I ordered either

 

These coils are great quality. I had a set of 500's on my last car and they rode outstanding. If I don't go for kW v3 I'll be getting a set of FA's.

 

Update to help any future interested buyer. I finally got around to installing them and playing around with height settings/rebound settings. When I make rebound adjustmemt, only 2-3 clicks at a time, I actually feel the difference, it's very noticeable, and from what I hear most coilovers in the same price point don't have that same experience, it's more like 10 clicks to notice a difference. I pm currently running 20 clicks from soft to hard in the rear with 18 clicks from soft to hard in the front which I make drop back down to 15F/18R which was a nice ride. These are not bouncy at all, they ride very well over road imperfections. The body roll has TREMENDOUSLY been reduced and I haven't added any other suspension components IE sway bars. Car feels very flat and confident in corners at high speeds, you feel very planted and you'll notice the nose of the car does not shift hardly at all, it stays flat. I don't feel nervous in corners what so ever. I got a chance to some high speed slalom testing, and again, with a back to back comparison of old suspension it is night and day. With the old suspension while it was very responsive the car would body roll into misery, with the fortune autos it stays planted. I will purchase the whiteline RCK since I'm lowered a good amount, about 2 fingers gap on all corners(not sure if this is too low or not, suspension gurus can chime in). Overall, for $1300 I am very happy, I just hope these last and stand the test of time especially with winter coming around.

Edit- these coilovers are 100% noise free.

 

Thanks for updating the thread with your initial impressions Viegas. Do you do any HPDE's, auto-x or something of the sort where you could compare times before vs now?

 

Unfortunately I have not had a chance to yet. But this setup would very obviously be faster than my stock setup. Of course I have no facts to prove that but the car feel a lot better. Now I'm not trying to make these coilovers out to be ohlins or anything, but I am very satisfied with them. Just the fact that it took my already go kart feel up several levels is great. Most noticeable difference is body roll, it's literally non existent(8k front/10k rear springs). Stability is very solid and the ride quality is very, very smooth and responsive. In short words it took what my car did well and exaggerated it with having no downfalls. I am looking to get into some track days for sure though. I'm not trying to come off as a suspension head because I'm not, you would be far better served by someone with real knowledge, I'm just giving my opinion to help people who are looking into coilovers at this price point.
