IM or email the guys at AJRacing , they hang out in th eITR forum a lot. or search for AJR as a username. they know peeps using these and had enough info fo rme that I decided to go with just Konis and Ground Controls. Ifg I had to choose another suspension setup it would have been ZEAL based on their info and help, plus ZEAL is getting cheaper all the time and is super serious ****.

ok first of all, you need to think about what kind of driving your going to be doing. if your just gonna be cruising the streets don't buy these. if you're rich and just want the "NAME", then go ahead. there are other good quality coilovers for much less.

look into TEIN for good quality coilovers for a good price.

and back to the topic, i've never seen anyone using these. however, i do believe they are of high quality. FIGHTEX does also offer another race set of coilovers which have a resvoir tank. look at A-J racing for info.

99% of the people on this board have not tried any sort of Fightex coilovers.

So the chances of anyone giving you an opinion on how they perform is pretty slim.

But of course, everyone has been in a car that has the exact suspension someone is inquiring about right? "I drove my friend's car w/ those coilovers and....(insert BS comment here)..."

Hi, I'm alex. I've been snooping for months now on the site but just now decided to register.

What kind of specs can you get on that system? I purchased a set of AVO coilovers and love them. However, they are not for everyone. They are VERY stiff but I'm into autox so I can tolerate it. I believe at CFI motorsports you can get them for about $800 with springs. Here's a pic of them:

edit: the black springs have been changed. Those were temporary.

I have the NEX coilover kit right now and I am more than satisfied with it, however, I was highly considering purchasing the FIGHTEX system since it was made by TODA and nobody else was using this set up.
Wanted to get some opinions before I made the puchase.
I have had my NEX coilover kit for almost a year now and and just kind of looking for something new, and if it exists, better.
I have always spoken highly of my NEX coilovers, but and just kinda wondering what the next step up above the NEX coilovers is.
