    So should the logo on the hat be on the far side near the fender? The instructions are for the V1 when the logo ( on the hat)was closest to the firewall and the camber bolts run parallel to the firewall, but now bolts run parallel and logo is on the side now. Sorry don’t know much about coils, first time doing them on my STI.

    How’s the NVH without the rubber top hats??? I almost want to get the fspec because I don’t want a noise cabin. BTW, loved the over the shoulder view! Your car was so flat and planted that I was impressed.

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому +1

      Nvh is definitely there.. nothing crazy or too obnoxious. I'd actually say they're quieter than the FA 500s which are also full metal tophat plates

  • @Will-hs2um

    Nice video! Are you able to rebuild these coils with different spring rates? Like if you wanted to match 8K Front and Rear.

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  11 місяців тому +1

      Possibly, you'd have to custom order new springs for the front!

    I have the V1 of these FR-Spec set to 5 from the most comfortable and I get a quite a bit of bouncing. I'm worried I installed these incorrectly now as you and I have had very similar experiences for all other WRX after market parts.

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому +1

      I would definitely go reset your preload! See if that solves the issue.

    Hello from Colorado too! How is the ride compared to stock? I don't know if I should go with the f spec fl or these the fr. I don't want to drop it to much since I still drive through the snow during winter. But when I am driving street I still want it to be as comfortable as stock.

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому

      I think the FL spec would be the best option for you then! They still have adjustable camber plates but the top mount is rubber isolated so they'll be more comfortable than the FR-spec. If you watch Factionfabs latest video they explain the difference between all 3 models and I think the FL spec still allows you to run the car close to stock height.

  • @knefflen
    @knefflen 2 роки тому +1

    Are you getting any noise with these or did you with the v1s? My v1 FR specs are rattly AF up front. Had them checked out at Racing Trenz and was told quality on these is sub par, but I still am stoked on the way they drive.

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому +1

      I've put 1500 miles on them already and haven't had any noises at all!

  • @KrispySti
    @KrispySti 2 роки тому +1

    I was wondering what the height drop specs are from stock ride height? And what spec are your tires wondering if I can max it out and tuck a bit with 245/40R18 18x9.5 +35

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому +1

      I have 265/35 on 18x9.5 +35, running control arms in the rear. So yeah 245/40 would be easier to tuck with but even with those you'd need to add rear camber to go low and not rub.

    This video made me buy these. They are wayyyy to aggressive for the roads in Canada for your daily driver. Gonna replace with f spec or fl. Unless your tracking it, the springs 12k in front are too hard and unforgiving regardless of where you set your damping settings

    Curious to see how the V2s improve things with 30 clicks of adjustment. I'd always see myself unsatisfied and constantly hunt for the right click (12,14,16,15,20,13,23,15, etc.) I'd see myself adjusting them weekly....

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  2 роки тому

      So the 30 clicks is an improvement but they also changed the kind of fluid in the strut and some of the valving tuning as well!

    When installing the bolts back on to the main assembly what torque spec did you do? I just have my oem ones with eibach comp lowering springs which are great but honestly guess on torque putting it back together because I couldn’t figure it out, been driving on them for a year so I did something right but honestly curious if you would know, I want to check them again soon just to make sure everything’s good on them

    • @WRXGarage
      @WRXGarage  10 місяців тому +1

      The top hat nuts torque is 15 if I remember correctly..
      The large bolts/nuts that connect the back of the hub to the bottom of the coilover is 129 ft/lb

      The quality control that Factionfab does is truly amazing so I'd definitely say they're of the same quality. Fortune auto's have some more high tech internals but you wouldn't really feel the difference if you're just driving it on the street

      With them set to full soft, they're actually still pretty comfortable. That being said, they won't be as comfortable as the other coilovers in their lineup because of the higher spring rates. So it's really up to you!

    For the record it's damping. Dampening means wetting something. Damping is reducing amplitude.
