$1150 for Mugen nonadjustables. I think the Endura's are $800-900 shipped on here. I think the Mugen name and rep would be worth the extra few hundred bucks maybe.

Ooh just noticed Mugen front strut bar on Kingmotorsports *drools and adds to wishlist*

Kenchan-

Thanks for posting up your heights and thoughts. Sorry I wasn't able to answer this myself DRZENITRAM, it was a hectic weekend. Free Shipping still available for those interested.

after playing around with the heights and daily driving with people onboard, etc.
i found that -1.8" front and -1.3" rear is probably the best overall balance for
handling, functionality, and appearance with these EnduraTech's.

no rubbing issues on mine. but i am running 195/50/15's so that could
be why my +40 offset 15x7's are working.

yep, that sounds like a plan. the beauty of c/o's.


i ran down this super bumpy tollway (aka 294 by OHare) yesterday on
my car. no rubbage. man those bumps on that tollway needs to be
ground down. thought my car was going to shatter in to bits but the
enduratechs just took it like nothing.

Hey Justin,

Any kinda contingency bonus for running the Endura-Techs if I don't finish in dead-last with a bone stock Fit (besides the coilovers) in the next FWD street time attack event?

Just thought I'd throw that out there

Michael,

According to our agreement with RLTA, yes if you were using the Endura-Tech Fit coilovers in the event and finished anywhere between 1 st and 3rd in your class, you would receive some contingency. For example, 1st place receives $200 voucher for product etc.

Hmmm...seeing as how I get $0 right now and I don't even get to keep my plaques (LOL) I might want to think about this.

Something tells me that the L15 won't work so efficiently in the RSX though...ha.

Definitely something to think about though!!!

Thanks Justin!

I might pick these up anyway as I get a little more disposable income. I've heard nothing but good things about these coilovers, and given that I'd mostly be using them for daily driving, the adjustability is just right. Good to see that Endura-Tech is offering such a solid suspension product besides most of the normal spring setups I'm so used to seeing.

Hey Justin it was good talking to you the other day from the Sunny Middle East. I should be home soon and I will order the Endura-Tech. Take care and all i hear about Endura-Tech is good things. People must choose the right type of coil-over for there setup. If it is a daily driver this is the best spring.

Hey Chaplain! Have a safe return from Iraq and when you get settled, just give me a call and we'll get things out the door for you. Godspeed.

Michael,

"If the coilovers FIT, you must commit!"
As said by Johnnie Cochran when he bought his kit

Tracedsailor and Methodbasic,

As I appreciate your offers to want to pick them up, I can't let them go for $700 or around there. Their $899 with shipping included in the continental 48 states.

Best regards,

Justin
