Wondering if you were able to install these and if you could provide us with your thoughts on the ride quality?

I will have these installed within a month, just working on getting a set of h-sport camber links before I install everything. Way was out of them when I ordered my RSB, front links, and Torque Arm. Hopefully he gets them in soon.

Here are some photos I took of them out of the box:

Will keep you all posted!

Yes, I haven't forgotten about this. I had these installed about a month now and have been driving on them, getting a feel for things. I will try to write up a review on them this week, maybe tomorrow. I just didn't want to dive into a review without getting at least 1000 miles on them.

Thanks zcast...I'm currently looking at various coilovers for my R56 and had not even heard about FA until I saw this post, and it got my curiosity

Totally appreciate your willingness to share your FA review with us here on NAM. It will be interesting to hear your thoughts

Big thumbs up on the ride, it looks amazing!!!

So how does one go about ordering FA coilovers? Also are the spring rates listed on their site pertain to their springs or the optional Swift springs?

There are many different distributors, so you can definitely shop around. I would call FA directly though; get some advice on your setup, and have them point you in the direction of the best distributor.

Each set is custom built at FA facility, so expect some turnaround time. No distributor should/would have a stock of them unless they bought the base kit, but I could be wrong.
