That's good to hear. Another alternative are those CKS coilovers, $1950 with free shipping if you contact one of the Trinity Autosport vendors on this forum. I would but I'm waiting for when I'm near the border to snag them from a US post office as opposed to taking a beating on Canadian shipping.

Who did you speak with at ESE? I spoke to them yesterday and they confirmed with me that they would fit, however new products should be out within the next month or so, according to them.

Sounds like you spoke to Dave and received the same story I did. Very hopeful that this pans out for us.

As am I. Unfortunately I'm reluctant to trust anything not KW. I just currently do not want to shell out nearly 3k for v3s. I cant knock these new FK coilovers however as they aren't even out yet. They may be of fine quality.

There is no cross compatibility between RWD and AWD models so those won't fit one of the two.

Yeah, unless it's two different models. Still skeptical. Notice some vendors aren't even sure and just say it fits. If there was a $400 set then sure I'd snag a set just to be the test mule but at over $1k CAD I'm not risking it hahah.

We just got to patiently wait. I want to lower my car so bad. The wheel gap is annoying me lol. I heard FK had problems with employees and will eventually start their production of parts again. ISC coilovers are still in testing or so. Not 100% sure, there is a thread about suspension specific stuff and reviews in the tires forum here I think.

Wonder whats going on now... lol. I already picked out my wheels. Next will be lowering the car. With springs i can get a moderate drop. But 99% of the forum is saying not to go that route. If nothing comes out by july or something. Im gonna get those springs. I heard the ride isnt that bad. All lowering springs along will make the ride worse. The question is how bad. lol

Its summer already... still no word... hmm... might research this later.
