We had the pleasure of supplying one of our friends a set of KW V3 coilovers a few months ago. He finally managed to steal his mum’s keys and get them fitted 😅 Ride height is perfect and comfort is 👌🏽 #kwsuspension #kwv3 #coilovers #static #audi #rsq3 #nardogrey #fourrings #vagcafeequipped #vagcafe (at VAG Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkhsGonI5iV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fortune Auto 500 Coilvers Compared to 510 Coilovers

Is the $1000 dollar price difference between the Fortune Auto 500 and 510 worth it?! You might be thinking that 500 and 510 are close numbers so the coilovers must be similar, and if you think that, then you are wrong.

The Fortune Auto 500 is an insanely great coilover especially for daily driving. The 500 series coilovers is single adjustable. This means that rebound and compression are a single adjustment knob known as “dampening”. The design of the damper utilizes a High Flow Digressive Piston to optimize the perfect balance between performance and comfort. This allows for stiff low speed compression/rebound force. So the driver will feel more controlled under occasional track use and spirited driving. Yet at fast stroke speeds, the suspension becomes supple in response to road irregularities giving the driver maximum control. All Fortune Auto 500 coilovers feature 24 step adjustable compression. With a monotube shock design, they are much improved over a lesser quality brands that use a twin tube damper. All 500 series shocks feature high grade 6061 T6 aluminum parts such as strut mounts, camber plates, and lower spring perches. Additional features include Koyo Japanese radial bearings which allow the shock to rotate lock to lock without binding. In lesser quality coilovers, inferior bearings can become loose or generate play. This causes clunking noises and unsafe functioning of the coilover system. Even though the Fortune Auto 500 series coilovers has standard spring rates, Fortune Auto has partnered with Swift Springs to allow customization of the systems. If you do not know what spring rates you want to run, Fortune Auto can help recommend these based upon your car setup, use, and driving style.

  The Fortune Auto 510 series may sound like it’s just a small bump up. 500…510, right? But that couldn’t be further from the truth. The 510 series is designed specifically for the track and a ton of people use it on their drift builds. While both the 500 and 510 share the same architecture, the internals of the 510 have a much more digressive piston as well as better shim stacks to allow for much better rebound force than the 500. The difference in this technology is the Concave Flow Digressive Piston design. This piston design gives the coilovers a Jekyll and Hyde personality. Lower spring rates can be stiffend up by using the wide damping range as an artificial spring rate. With 24 way adjustable dampening, you get a huge range from comfort on the street to unyielding performance on the track by just twisting the knob. The 510’s piston also has a “blow off” feature that helps when hitting rough patched on the track like potholes or track curbing. As well the 510’s are all shock dyno tested with certification, feature locking spring purchases, 6061 T6 aluminum components, and premium chrome silicone springs or upgraded custom Swift Springs.

So while the 500 series and 510 may look similar, they sure are different!

Coilovers vs Bags - Which is Best For You?

Choosing between coilovers and air ride systems for lowering your car involves weighing various factors related to performance, convenience, and personal preferences. Let’s explore these suspension options in more depth.

Starting with coilovers, these are an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking improved performance from their lowered vehicle. Coilovers offer adjustability in damping, rebound, and compression rates, providing a range from stiffer setups designed for track-focused driving to softer configurations ideal for daily commuting. Tuning the height on coilovers requires some effort and patience, often involving adjusting the threaded spring perches or collars. However, the payoff is enhanced handling, reduced body roll, and overall better performance on the road. The precision and customization options of coilovers make them favored among driving enthusiasts looking to optimize their car’s dynamics. Popular brands of coilovers we recommend and carry are: KW Suspensions, ST Suspensions, BC Racing, Fortune Auto, Ohlins, D2 Racing, H&R, HKS, Bilstein.

On the other hand, air ride systems offer unparalleled convenience and versatility when it comes to adjusting ride height. With air ride, altering the car’s height is as simple as clicking a button or turning a dial, allowing quick and effortless adjustments on the fly. This flexibility makes air ride systems perfect for achieving extreme low stances while still retaining the ability to raise the car for drivability over speed bumps or rough roads. The comfort level with air ride tends to be higher compared to coilovers, offering a smoother and more adjustable ride. We recommend Air Ride parts from: Airlift, Accuair, D2 Racing, KSport, Ride Tech, AirRex.

However, while air ride systems excel in convenience and versatility, they may not match coilovers in terms of ultimate performance. Generally, air ride setups are not as adept at handling aggressive driving styles compared to coilovers. The air springs in air ride systems tend to have more give, affecting handling and responsiveness, especially during high-performance maneuvers or aggressive cornering.

Both coilovers and air ride systems have their distinct advantages and limitations. Coilovers prioritize performance and handling, providing a tailored suspension setup for driving enthusiasts seeking improved dynamics. On the contrary, air ride systems offer unparalleled adjustability and convenience, making them ideal for those who prioritize versatility, extreme lowering, and ease of adjustment.

Ultimately, the choice between coilovers and air ride systems hinges on individual preferences, driving habits, and the specific goals for the lowered car—whether it’s optimized performance, extreme lowering, or convenience in height adjustment. Understanding these differences helps enthusiasts make an informed decision based on their priorities and intended use for their vehicle.
