fortune auto 510 just came in the mail
I'm going to install the coilovers tomorrow but can anyone chime in and inform me of what these are used for? My gut says brake line brackets but not sure.

Terry a very good person to work with. If you get into contact with him, ask him how to properly install these brackets.
Ill have pictures up sometime this week or next when i rip off my wheels to check out the brakes.

My settings:
- 9k front
- 10k rear
- Street valved
Pros:
- Fantastic coilovers with a wide range of adjustability
- Multiple settings from Fortune Auto depending on your needs
Can't really say anything else until I have the car corner balanced and ready for track days. Any other comment would purely be subjective.
Cons:
- The rubber boot that protects the piston from debris and dirt can get stuck in the coils which causes headache inducing squeaks. However, a little bit of grease on the rubber cleared it right up.
- Never figured out how the brake brackets worked. I just bolted it to the bottom bolt (non-camber adjustable one) and check the clearance for the lines.
The install was fairly straight forward, with the guides here on evom some common sense and you'll be done in no time.
Btw, don't mind the photos. It was really sunny that day.
