Yes sir. Intalled, adjusted, and loving them . The fxt is nice because the comfy oem seats compensate for the firm ride. Love my protune as well. Makes a world of difference from stock with just a dowpipe and bcs.

Albert... finish your wrx first lol.
I'm substantially flush™, meaning I need a bit more than the 1.8° of camber the bolts offer. That's why I really like the plates. You're totally right though. For most applications the plates aren't necessary.

Albert, I know you don't know me, but listen. mod the fxt now , dont listen to that hide guy ! Jk lolz.

Well this thread got out of hand quick.

Seems every "cheap coilover" thread goes south.

Why do we never see "Help me decide between remote resiviors Ohlins, JRZ and Moton coilovers"?!

For the next "cheap coil over" thread someone needs to search, copy and paste the billion other posts by Brfatal on this same exact topic. As entertaining as these threads are, information is already out there. At least it not a "which blow off valve should I get..."

I missed this somehow...

Friends don't let friends buy stance/BC coil overs.

This is why I offer to assemble konis for people. If it saves someone from riding on that crap, I'll gladly spend a day cutting shocks.

+1. Only thing I would even add would be a group control kit if they wanted to "stance/hella flush". Only downside to konis is not being able to adjust height but when I had them on the WRX, it looked great!

Then you're on the wrong forum.


Everyone here is too ***** to do anything in real life. All they do is live on keyboards. Tap dancing a few keys away at a time.

Heedz you know me better than to ever want to do that... But there are people who want adjust ability. I am not one of those people but if they really wanted to get cheap coilovers its for 1 reason... they want to go lower and dont care for quality.
