I know that they are better,because you can change the adjustments dependign on your driving,track higway,but i dont got to the track,and in this case I'll have them set on one position and not change them.Why do i need the 500 adjustables,when I even wont adjust them

I just about got non-adjustables when I did my stage II Roush kit. I debated it for a while and finally caved to advice about getting the D-spec adjustables. I am glad I did.
I just was in the same boat once. I have made changes in them and noticed the difference in the adjustments that I made. So I think all in all it was a favorable choice then, and I am sure of it now.

It's late, more will be here tomorrow to beef up the other side of this! :)

goodnight :beer:

I would go with the frpp shocks. depending on if your lowered and what springs you have. becuase they are setup for the frpp springs.

Or look at bilsteins, they cost more, but are worth every penny.

i do not know anyone who has used the non adjustable ones. I can tell you from experience the FRPP's are the ones used on the FR500c cars that keep winning all the races and i LOVED them
