I just bought a s14 and it came with these coilovers, they are not quite what I want, so I would like to see if anyone is interested in them.
THEY ARE STILL ON THE CAR
K-sport Kontrol Pro with less than 2K miles (I put maybe 500 hwy miles on them)
I would like to get 700$ + shipping I live in De
If I find a buyer I could have them off and shipped within 5 days.

This is really the only pictures I have at the moment.

These things are pretty much hardly used, the previous owner never had the motor running right so barely got to drive it. And I have only driven a tops of 500 miles all Hwy to work and back a few times and getting it home when I bought it.

Josephj- If you live in Jersey your not that far from me, I would be willing to give you a ride before you buy them...

I would probably do 650$ If I can get a good price on a new set. I'll be calling the company tomorrow when they open back up.

if you don't like the ksports, you're not gonna be much satisfied with the fortune autos, i had a set on my hatch and they do not ride that well, honestly =/ if you're just trying to swap one set of sub $1k coilovers for another, you might as well just keep those

I've had my fortune 500 for around 4 years now and I have to say they are an excellent ride. They go low as shit if you like that looks and have any spring rate you want.. and I have to add that there customer service and there coilover servicing is top notch and quick turn around time. Say you needed to get custom spring rates... Which you sure as hell can't get with the jdm ,over 1k coilovers. Unless you live in japan turn around sucks balls.. Even with tein usa. As an example... So all in all. full on customizable coilover. Great service! USA service on top of that. East coast..which is where we are at.. YOU CAN NOT BEAT IT.

Oh and the best most expensive coilovers will ride like a bicycle with sqaure wheels if there not adjusted right.. and I ment that you can't get the service with the jdm coilovers..not that you couldn't get custom spring rates in my earlyer post.... somebody buy these things. Lol

Hmm, guess I got the wrong people at fortune auto, I had a coilover blow out a month in and they were going to charge me for the repair and shipping...
they go low ish...
moowee240
11-22-2012, 08:09 AM
well since they have a warranty on them if you bought them new. low ish ? you could practically plow with your car from how low you can make them go from flipping the lower mount..

I will do 660 shipped. Literally all I have to my name.

11-22-2012, 10:15 PM
I just bought some Fortune Autos on there black Friday sale, so as soon as they come in these will be ready to come off and be shipped. Also I think 700$ is pretty fair shipped bc its will be Damn near 40-50$ in shipping I would guess.
Honestly if you only have 660$ to your name, don't you think food and shelter would be more important lol? Unless u live at home I guess.. I am willing to wait for 40$ if you still want them. I'm pretty set on 700$ shipped for now.

yup, that was with the warranty. enjoy the new coils OP, just be careful lowering them all the way as that's when when one of my front fortune auto dampers blew after the first month or so..
jlee29
11-23-2012, 12:49 PM
Oh wow, you are one of the few with a bad experience through fortune auto, that I have seen.
I am considering the swift spring upgrade, but I'm not sure if its worth the extra 250$ for a daily driver. My car won't be slammed.
nismoracingsx
11-23-2012, 02:01 PM
i'm sure you'll be fine without the upgrade since your dd with sensible ride height

slamming the vehicle isnt good for any shock, nor the correct way to run coilovers lol. im not suprised you had one blow if you ran it all the way down like they tell you not too, even have a video on the site ..... sorry that you had a bad experience. you must of been one a very few with bad things about them.. im runnnig version 1 and one of the first sold..ive had nothing wrong and they have improved upon the coilovers since then.

I will do 660 shipped. Literally all I have to my name.
Lol, why would I go down when I've been offered 660$? SMH
These thinks are barely used, car was not slammed and it was driven on the highway.

They are used K-Sports, no one in they're right mind is going to pay $700. No one cares that they are barely used, they're used.
You can get Stance's for that coin. Not being a dick just saying. I would have taken that $660 and ran!
Buttt...glws. I must admit at least you are not asking $700 for some rust old pieces of shit like I have seen others do.

just because you are to cheap skate to pa doesnt mean someone else wont find that this is a really good deal for a nice set of coilovers. cuz everyone else is crazy and charges an arm and leg for some rust up broke jap. shits yes 2 bumps is the rule.. bumps are every 3 days and new posts other than op are free to the topsys. did you not read you zilvia handbook.

I have tein,jic, and KTS coils between my s chassis' and q45...When it comes to suspension I am not "cheap" so nice try.
Compared to what they sell for new and being that they are in good condition someone might find that justifiable enough to drop that on these yes.....However AS I ALREADY STATED for that much money you can find a nicer set of used coils in similar shape.
I didn't know K Sports were "nice"............... :eek3:zilvia:barf:

Just to clarify those do look like the older version of the kontrol pros with the bad valving and crappy seals these where the ones that gave ksports the crappy blown coilover reputation I don't wanna hurt your post but these sets even new/used wont sell for more than 500 bucks 700 bucks is more of a reseanable price for the newer kontrol pros wich are black with orange accents that's how you can tell them apart . Bump !! :D
