Anyone have pics of there Z on Fortune auto 500 series gen4 coilovers that are really low and fitted ? recently found out they stopped making them in true coilovers just wondering if the rears go as low as the previous generations..if anyone could help me out that would be awesome

 

They don't go really low. Fronts will lay frame but rears are not for tucking tire. I have them on my car, they are great quality for function, very smooth. If u are just looking to go super low then they're not for you, but if u are still interested I can email u some pics of my car.

 

remove spanner nuts on spring perch, and that rear will be low.

but fortune does mainly focus on function.

 

Just order them with the springs to do what you want. Main reason for coilovers is so springs are fully replaceable with different rates and length

 

+1 ^

Lower the rate and lower the length and your car will go as low as you want. If you just trying to go low though you could grab some bc racing or stance coils. Fortune actually makes good coilovers so they are more for performance.

 

Problem is I already have them here when I opened them I thought they would be a true coilover ill remove collars and see how it sits other then that ill be putting them up for sale not really lookin for performance to much...possible I might switch to a swift spring in rear and see how it sits

 

You dont need a true coilover to lay the frame on the ground in the rear. you just need a shorter spring with the same rate. Do the coilovers come with height adjusters for the spring bucket, from what im reading they are oem style correct?

 

Yes they do come with height adjusters...I'm most likely going to remove collars and order swift springs for the spring buckets...Im going to be running 18x11.5 in rear with 245/40/18

 

Yes oem style

 

No keep the collars you can use them to adjust height, just order springs with a different rate so you can go lower

 

Better to order different length. If he has an 8k spring at 8 inches, he can order an 8k at 7 inches thru swift. The rear will sit 1 inch lower.

This does not apply to thru coilover. The sky is limit if you know what your doing.

 

This Sunday in going to put the coilovers on and see what the rear looks maxed out with removed collars...I'm thinking of getting swift springs at 6inchs 12kg for the rear spring buckets if I'm not satisfied with the height...there's no way fortune auto would make that much of a drastic height difference between front and rear on the Oem setup...my guess its similar to BC br coilovers since they are oem setup as well but I could be wrong..if anyone has suggestions I'm open to all...not into performance just fitment and stance

 

The difference of front to rear is because the way fronts can be Improperly adjusted causing a slammed car.

 

True, this way is the easier way to change height through changing the springs length

 

Anyone have pics of swift short springs in rear on oem style coilovers! I'm pretty sure once I remove collars in the rear spring it will drop pretty low!

 

Just install what you have for now, then figure the rest out. All you have to do is post the info and a few of us can easily figure out what is needed. BTW what rate springs do you have now?

 

10k front 8k rear

 

Since you have a setup very much like i used to run. Only go up to a 10k rear, but 6 inch length. You will probably need to add some preload with the collars to lift the car up where you need it.

 

he is def gonna have to add a little bit of preload, dont have more spring rate in the front than the rear

 

yea you guys are right id prob get 9k..fortune auto tech service told me 6inch 9k should work good in my case! but before I drop the money ill throw the coils on first and post some pics
