This has been my exact experience and I am now an Ohlins fan for life. My Evo X rode BETTER than stock on the street even with spring rates almost triple that of stock. Track performance was awesome.

pm with price please...08816

Of course and agree in this aspect. and i already have my dampers so weighing them is a moot point. But I'm still curious so i can keep a log off how many kgs I've shaved (or added) off the car.

and that I get. I understand. I have seen some ask that question about the craziest of things. So I reacted ****-like.

I am very intrigued! Price to 94583?

please pm me with the price..thx

Weighed them today as I had the scale our for our KW Clubsports and AST 4150s (S2000) fitment taking weights too.

Fronts 13.4 lbs

The looks of the construction on these look like something off the space shuttle.

I have to say that front shock is beautiful.

It truly is a work of art. These things are really nice. You've got to see em in person to really appreciate them.

PHOTO SHOW OFF !! :thumbup:

I'm going to break out the RED Scarlett and shoot some video of mine !

LOL

in the process of doing my own coilover cover DIY to custom fit these. Already have some materials which include light 200 denier (water and mold resistant) cloth with weatherproof velcro and shock/bungee cord. Pretty easy to take on and off with coilovers installed.

Following this guide btw. Credits to him

What are your thoughts of running them on track in terms of cooling issues? The material is breathable.

^^^ I used to run atv suspension covers on a set of coilovers I had. They were called dirt bags or something like that. Worked great but I would never run them on the track.

Ohlins first impression
 

Purchased a set of Ohlins for my BRZ after quite a bit of research and availability issues with previous choice. Ohlins were not available when that choice was made and out of my price point. Desperation for a suspension, ultimately opened my wallet. Tristan, at Circuit Motorsports, was helpful, informative, and found a set for me. Ordered Monday, received Wednesday, and installed Friday, at West End Alignment. I can not express how joyful this short five day process made me feel, after over two months of waiting and waiting.

Darin and Chris took incredible care installing coilovers and Whiteline bushings. I never felt rushed during alignment and slow process of corner balancing. There was quite a bit of communication prior to installation, updates during process, and while fine tuning balance. This has always been my experience with Darin, in my past racing life. Chris is carrying on the same tradition of excellence!

The set-up was simply -3 front, -2.5 back, 0 toe front, 3/32 toe rear, 6.5 degree front caster. The car was lowered the maximum allowed by Ohlin, without compromising suspension geometry. This turned out to be just over an inch, which was my original goal.

We set up the rebound for the track. This made the slow drive home a bit bumpy. However, the first laps, at Chuckwalla, were fantastic! Body roll was severely minimized, car settled quickly, and turn-in was increased. I was able to immediately gain confidence with higher entrance and exit speed due to increased contact patches and balance of car. My third timed lap was one of my fastest for the day. I increased rebound stiffness twice, in rear, but now believe the original guess was the best for now. These were five from full stiff front and seven from full stiff rear.

I will be at Streets of Willow this Saturday to dial in settings. Now that I have softened up rebound for street driving, they are awesome! I do not feel that I am driving a race car. It is slightly stiffer than factory, but very compliant and enjoyable. I was worried about lower spring rates for track and will have to make the final determination, over time. Initial impressions are very favorable. Now, I just need to become a better driver and learn the new limits of the car.
