Seems to me the main differences are that Fortune Auto wanted twice as many people to place orders (10 vs 5), and that Feal had already created a "prototype" in the form of the set that the owner had created for his own V. In August 2017 your good friend Shingouki1 said FA was still planning on getting a V in for prototype development in September 2017. He never posted again, so apparently the source of the potential group buy lost interest.

- "Spring rates are 12k/6k for true rear and 12k/14k for stock location rears standard, but like all our other 441 kits we do have custom valving and rates available."

It's not like there's been some huge groundswell of support for the Feal setup. It took Doble almost 3 months to get 5 people to commit. By comparison, you started your thread in late June 2017 within 5 weeks had half a dozen people who said they were interested.

Looks like Feal guy owned one (a V1) and wanted to do it. That is a huge helping nudge in the right direction towards accomplishing a goal (when maintaining the business can take a back seat also). Did anyone purchase any of these units or this is just a prototype floating around being tested? How many miles?

Finally put them on. Went ahead and replaced the rear lower shock bushings and lower control arm bushings while I was there. Also if anyone was wondering a 19x10 wheel will clear a true coilover setup. All that's left is to fix my SW exhaust I'm really getting tired of this exhaust can never get a right alignment.
