Got some info on Ohlins offerings. - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Sooooooo.... Evasive has them listed. $3,766. I was hoping for their original estimate in the lower $3000 range.

Alot of guys ran Ohlins for Formula SAE and Baja. Their on-road and off-road stuff is just incredible. They don't cut any corners, and their R&D is top-notch (atleast on their TTX gear).

I like how many high-end options we're getting for coilovers. Probably in expectation that the 86 will be the next Miata (read: tons of profit from the SCCA crowd)

FRSMod has them for $3500 (LINK). I'm looking forward to the specs on this setup.

got a product info pdf from the australian distributors of ohlins. Its 6kg F and 6kg R. This is the Swedish offering which is being sold in the US and Australia as well.

Japanese spec Road and Track Ohlins is 9kg F and 7 kg Rear. The japan version gives you the option of rear pillowball/uniball mount or rubber mount. Unsure about the swedish version, buts its most likely predetermined and cannot be optioned.

RRP price in australia is $4300 AUD.

I've seen the product manual for Road and Track offering on the s2k forums and it is very comprehensive. Gives you exact dimensions on how far to lock in the height adjustment and spring perches. I assume this is just a base guide for installation and recommended height/preload for optimum use from Ohlins. Small adjustments can be made on the preload for further corner weighting.

IShouldStudy · 03-02-2013, 12:30 AM

The only question now is who is going to try them out first?

aCab · 03-03-2013, 01:39 PM

I'll be testing some of these Mid Summer. Have KW clubsports coming in first to test.
