Reminds me of my c5 corvette when I bought it; I couldn’t get a penny between the tire and fender well. I hated the scraping and I couldn’t really drive the way I wanted to drive because the car was so low and the tires were too fat causing rubbing. Looks great but just not practical for high speed fun.
@vigilante012 Жыл бұрын
I was not sure if this was addressed. I did watch your install videos for the Fortune Auto's as well as your video reviewing your original Fortune Auto set up. Your insights in why you ran 7k as well as the dampening (clicks) settings were very insightful. Did you ever consider sending in your Gen 5 Coilovers back to Fortune to be rebuilt? Since that is a big selling point for their product.

If I was driving the STI everyday, I would definitely raise it a bit. I have the truck to handle the weather and crappy roads, so it’s a bit more forgiving to go as low as I am on the STI. The clearance on the truck is very nice though haha.

does your steering wheel vibrates just a little bit when driving around pass 60 because you are low? like the more you lower it the more it vibrate because you are closer to the ground. sorry. im just new to the care scene. thanks
@Scoobyfreak86 Жыл бұрын
No sir. No vibration as you shouldn’t have any no matter what. If it’s shaking at certain speeds, most likely it’s because the wheel needs to be rebalanced. Or if you are running aftermarket wheels, huh rings will remedy that.

I messeged FA directly and they will give you a sheet to fillout to see what type of driving you will do. I told them 60% daily, 20% autox, 20% tracking and hitting up NC/TN once a year. They reccomended the FA 500 but bumped me up to 7/8. Definetly email them, they are very responsive. I will upgrade my coils next year as I want to learn the car stock. Also have a GR86! Great review also! Gives me confidence to pull the trigger on them when the time is right.
