Ill make another thread for this later but I'm looking into making a heavy duty adjustable rear swaybar for B13s. Is this something you guys would also be interested in? These will be made by my company and not fortune auto. I will also be making suspension components for s chassis and maybe miatas.

ok guys.. since these are being custom made for me by fortune I'm going to have them done in a custom color than the original fortune green. I'm thinking to stick with nismo colors like red, black , silver, . thinking to have gunmetal grey lower mounts and lockrings with silver springs and bright red camber plates. the threaded shock body will be black.

How does that sound? I made a rendering that ill try to post up later.

I am guessing that means you live near them in VA? They didn't want me to drive down and leave them my P10 from about 4.5 hours away in PA.

They should make B14 rears also.

If you get 10 people that definitely want a set ill see what I can do about getting a set made. If I can get my hands on a b14 ill look into that too. Can't justify the cost for one set. If you figure in the time and everything I have personally put into these b13 units it would be a very very expensive custom unit. I can build you a custom set but it will cost. If you get 10 people to pledge and fortune agrees to make them you could have some at normal pricing.

My last e-mails to Terry @ Fortune, he claimed they will not make anymore P10 units because of the gen 2s version will cause hitting and eventual shock rod bending. This is more likely with a larger body housing, such as the 57mm body of the Fortunes.

He wanted another car to do a new re-design. I am making my own custom suspension setup, with parts made in the USA. Not Taiwan and Sweden.
