What the guys above said, plus you can't rebuild them. you need to mail it to them first to rebuild for an unknown amount.

Thumbs up

The Tein Flex coilovers will allow for some adjustment they are ok. 9/10 you get what you pay for though with coilovers. I ran the Fortune Auto 500 coilovers for years before ponying up the dough for more expensive coilovers. Overall the Fortune Auto 500 coilovers are excellent quality for what you get street or track it’s up to you. In my dealings with Fortune Auto their customer service was great and they were very helpful. What I liked most about Fortune Auto is they are in the states and all their coilover units are rebuildable and can be upgraded as well.

I will not reveal my suspension set up. Really depends though what you are using your Z for? What is your budget? If you are picking between the HKS Hipermax IV GT coilovers and the Fortune Auto 500 coilovers they are both great choices depending on what your goals are with your Z. Personally I would choose the Fortune Auto 500 series coilovers as they have great everyday drivability plus you can use them for occasional track use if necessary. If you are ever attending any serious competition track days than plan on getting Fortunate Auto 510 series coilovers as they will better suit you. The Fortune Auto 7th generation series coilovers are by far their most advanced coilovers they have introduced yet. Don’t forget you will have to have them rebuilt eventually.
