Really curious as to what you're impressions are with these. It's nice to see a 3rd option for under $1500. I'm personally a fan of the DIY Bilstein setups, I've heard good things about BC's, hopefully these are right up there (or better?) than those 2.
Also sick shirt!
I have BC Br’s on my Wrx (says every Subaru owner ever) and these Feal’s ride WAY better. It’s a different chassis though so I don’t want to crap too hard on the BC’s. They have held up well and never gave me any problems, but sometimes it feels like I’m driving a CAT bulldozer 🤣
I haven’t driven a Miata with the diy bilsteins. My red rocket R package had bilsteins but they were old.
You already know I love this shirt 🤙
Great job once again💪. Looking forward to your impressions. Would love to know how they are on our local rough roads as well👍 Currently on the FM Illuminas and springs, but might be ready for some adjustables in the near future.
I’ve been playing with all the settings a lot since the install. I’ve taken it on the track, did a day trip with them, and have been thrashing them around these here local roads 😂 I will update with feedback!
I've been shopping coilovers for past month or so. So many out there, this was a big help man. They look awesome, and just in that brief clip of the track looks like she stayed flat in the corners, not much if any body roll. Thank you for the info bro
I’ll give a better review of these but I’m in love with them so far. I just got an alignment the other day and the car feels amazing. I’d definitely recommend them!
Ditto
Thank god you made this, I just ordered mine and wanted to see someone build it. Hopefully the NC model isn't too much different.
I'm not sure how much different they are for the NC. I believe it'll be similar construction. Different valving and spring rates of course. Let me know how you like them!
Hey man your videos are super helpful, I was wondering how you like Feal 441 Road race coilovers how that you've had them for a while? I'm torn between the road race and the regular 441 feal. For reference I daily my Nb1 and would like to do occasional track days.
I just bought the 441 cuz I drive on the street only but my Miata is highly modded...I'm installing them next week...I'm in the Encinitas area just north of SD
I have fortune auto 500's on my miata.. I love them!
I looked at those too! I’ve only heard good things about them.
@@DriveItRyan they are amazing
I have the street spec spring rates for my Feals and they’re so nice! Once I begin to track my miata I plan to revalve the shocks to go with stiffer Swift springs.
Awesome! I like how you can upgrade whenever you want right through Feal. Great company!
informative and great video Ryan....even in 144p.... ;)

Any chance of a long term update on these? I’m at that dreaded crossroads of deciding on a coilover setup for another car and these are on my short list.
Looks like a great quality coilover. They are monotube and rebuildable too I believe!
Rebuildable and upgradeable! You have to come try these out. I really like them.
When torquing the control arms you need to have the wheel in neutral position in its travel so the bushings don’t bind up. I just use the floor jack to preload the bottom of the spindle
Thanks for the tip!
Nice have feals on my subi there badass
What coilovers are beter this or hsd monopro?
Thoughts on the Supermiata Tecna Coilovers for NB?
Video I’ve been waiting for (and the impressions) kinda worries me with how low the back is though, on Exocet I have my coils pretty long even with shock spacers.
You’ll have to drive it and see for yourself. I’m real impressed with them so far! The back isn’t too too low anymore. I’m at about 4.5 inch pinch weld height all around.
What fitment are this weels?
Look at Ryan, hes too cool for us with shades on inside. Now that he has feals suspension. 🤣 Coils look good and the car is looking sexy
I’m just glad it doesn’t look like a monster truck anymore! And hey I shot this outside facing the garage door. The sun was glaring! Trust me, I’m not that cool 🤣
@@DriveItRyan yeah say no to monster truckin! Ohhhh your outside? Well shoot...i didnt realize that, now i see the handle 😂
Your channel is truly a diamond in the rough. You put out quality content and I know it’s going to pay dividends in the long term.
This made my day. Thank you so much. I hope you’re right!
Trackday that allows no helmet and no roll bar in a covertible? What kind of hillbilly track is this? 🤣
Feals or fortune auto all day.
I showed my girlfriend these and she said they look like giant spark plugs
🤣 Hahaha I can see it!
Use a coil depress tool for removal.
I need to get one of those.

I’m still stuck on these or the meisterr zetacrd🥹
