Just wondering if anyone has any experience with Toda's Fightex coilovers. Anything good/bad besides their steep price. Are they worth the extra few bucks? How easily rebuildable/adjustable are they? Thanks in advance.

 

I heard they're good. Have you looked into Endless or Teins?

 

nah, I personally havn't..
But I have tried TEIN RS's (with external resivour), they fawkin rule. Adustable damper and rebound, 14k front/10K rear totally streetable too.

Thanks for the thread willard.

I've looked at both Endless/Zeal, Tein, and JIC. My girlfriend said that she got a price directly from JIC for much less than she can even get wholesale...guess they have quite a few sets sitting around that they need to get rid of for the RSX-S. She also said they'd corner weight my car without charge. So, I am almost certain I'm going to go with the flta2, but I was just wondering how those Fightex c/o's compared to the rest of the market.

One of the things I like about the Teins is that new electronic adjustment module (only $300!!! too) because, in the RSX, unless you cut out the hatch area plastic above the rear suspension (too ghetto for me), it's gonna be a PITA to adjust the rears. Be that as it may, I am definitely interested in a good suspension set up no matter how difficult it might be to adjust.

If anyone is running JIC FLTA2s, please let me know your thoughts on them. Thanks.

 

I use to run these up till summer 02, I enjoyed them while I had them. The spring rates I had were 10K front/6K rear, rode just dandy on the streets and I stiffened up the damper at the track. Adjustable bodyheight annoyed me after a while...since I had to take my wheels off everytime, unlike non-adjustable body height coilovers where you just raise the car and raise/lower the perch using the perch tools.

Since I'm such a SUS *****, I sold these JIC's and picked up some used Ohlins from a friend who imports JDM goods.

but over all teh JIC's were great.
sorry for the wack review on them! haha..

 

damn, you guy are rich.
I want some tein too!!
