Called up Tein today. They cannot reproduce the old aluminum bodied CS series. They do have a similar steel bodied replacement, that is a custom order item and similar specs. Mono tube. 3 months and he estimated approx $2600. Nah.
i used fortune auto on my evo x - they were decent. They are customizable with swift springs etc. definitely more expensive than the tein.

Bc also customizable with swift springs, but bc doesnt have the camber adjustment plates.
Do these fortune coils ha e camber adjustment on the rears too? If they do that would push me to them more,otherwise the bc are a little cheaper

Umm camber plates at the top of the coil-over will not adjust camber on the LS430 as it is double wishbone .
For that you need an adjustable upper control arm .
