Have any spare stuff lying around I might want ? LMK
My Z was up and running for 2 weeks, it was stolen from Denton on October 18th, recovered on the side of the road in Denton on October 20th, on 4 spare tires, completely stripped, no suspension, no drive train, no seats, no wing, EVERYTHING was gone. Shortly after I reach the point of either closing the shop or ruining my credit and for 10 years and being in debt for 20. So, as of 12/1/11 we closed. No spare parts or anything like that to speak of. Now I am just trying to find some part time work while I finish my degree.

Mackie,

I've always wondered about those Fortune Auto coilovers. What are your initial thoughts?

Kind of loud, honestly doesn't bother me at all. They ride very smooth, but firm no bouncing. They feel properly valved and with the limited driving I've done on them they feel well composed. I went with 9kfront /7k rear rates. If they hold up I would definitely recommend them. They don't go very low though. I'm a quarter inch from maxed out in front with room in the rear. I'm on my phone, sorry for the poor sentences ;(

I just might wrap them RPF1's with some RS3's since I don't DD the Z as much any more.
I figure I been driving the car to events and back with the RS3's on there so why not just keep them on fulltime since I drive it so little....I don't know....I might just keep the Battles as trackers.
