Skunk2 Pro-C Coilovers for FRS, BRZ, FT86
![]() Skunk2’s industry-leading Pro-C Coilovers for the BRZ/FRS feature 12-way adjustable valving, adjustable ride height, and a state-of-the-art mono-tube design. Thanks to threaded shock bodies, Pro-C Coilovers offer height adjustments independent of spring preload, which results in significant ride-height changes without sacrificing shock travel or ride comfort. Quick and precise ride-height adjustments can be made for dialing in corner balancing as well as for improved handling, responsiveness, and overall balance. Skunk2’s track- and street-tested Pro-C shock valving offers the perfect balance between daily driving and track performance and its all-new, shortened shock bodies and reduced shaft strokes help maintain adequate suspension travel on lowered vehicles for improved performance without sacrificing comfort. ![]() Pro-C Coilovers feature vehicle-specific, carefully selected springs designed to dramatically improve handling, and a race-inspired, mono-tube design for superior performance. Skunk2’s micro-polished, mono-tube design and one-piece, forged shock bodies, combined with its precision-machined, oversized shafts and stainless steel pistons, ensure that each Pro-C Coilover is both responsive and durable. Each Pro-C Coilover also features the highest quality shock oil for consistent performance and triple upper and lower seals to ensure years of leak-free operation. The results are unmatched cornering grip, reduced body roll, and a feel of vehicle control and stability like no other. ![]() Pro-C Coilovers feature hard-anodized, CNC-machined, forged 6061-T6 aluminum spring perches and CNC-wound racing springs manufactured from high-quality, SAE9254V spring steel. Each spring is designed to optimize the balance between comfort and performance and is custom-matched to their respective shocks. Pro-C Coilovers offer ride-height adjustments as low as three inches for an aggressive and sporty appearance. ![]() Like all Skunk2 products, Pro-C Coilovers feature a one-year warranty and are designed to provide years of enjoyment for the life of your vehicle. Never wait for a coilover rebuild again; Skunk2 stocks large quantities of replacement dampers that, in most cases, cost less than a typical coilover rebuild. Purchase your replacement dampers directly from Skunk2 to minimize downtime. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Part Number: 541-12-6500 MSRP: $1,255.79 http://store.skunk2.com/suspension-t...coilovers.html |

Interesting - a coilover that finally offers a realistic 12-way adjustability and not 184 adjustments(lol). Maybe we have something here?
Spring rates? |

Great questions @CSG Mike! We're sure you already know this, settings for on-track and street use are very subjective and depend on many variables. This also includes the recommended height, if these were strictly for on-track only use we could have recommendations, however, the beauty of a coilover shock is that you can adjust it to your preferences - i.e. driving style, comfort, appearance etc.
Thanks for your interest! |

Frs/brz skunk2 proC coilovers
7/30/2014
I purchased my Skunk2 Pro C coilovers for the BRZ/FRS with Skunk2 directly. I opened the box and found that everything was wrapped up nice and neat. Everything was included nothing was missing. I didn’t wait a day to install them, got home from work and got to business all by myself not to say a second hand will help out a lot! The installation process went smoothly. Rating it on a scale from 1-10, 10 being the hardest I would say 2, it was very easy. I did the fronts first finished and adjusted as needed then proceeded to the rears and did the same. I also installed the supplied front sway bar links. The install took about 4-5 hours with no help, and no lift. Left the dampening on soft all the way counter clockwise and took it out for a drive: location Carmel valley road in California! Was impressed right away on my very first turn since my car had been there before I knew the limits it had with the stock suspension. I was on it for about 1hr and of course adjusting the dampening which you can notice right away. Well so far I have had these for 2weeks of daily driving it and taking it to the curvy country roads I have no cons for this product love the way it drives. I highly recommend it for all FRS/BRZ owners I'm very happy with this product! |

We don't necessarily claim to have the best product out there, however, these are a quality system for the price you're paying in comparison to the competition out there for the same application. What suspension do you have on your FRS/BRZ? |
