THe CSG spec Tein SRC coil overs have transformed my car. It has made driving this car so much more enjoyable and of course freakin faster to the tune of 3 secs off my lap time. CSG once again delivers on setting up my car correctly for the track.

I run their recommended Header (ACE 4-2-1), their recommended brake pads for heavy tracking (pMu 999) and their recommended suspension system Tein SRC's. This is a deadly combo!

Are you guys at CSG able to have a set of JRZ race pro being sent from JRZ in Nederland to me in France directly ? (without a trip in the US with crazy shipping cost and taxes)

CSG has been very patient with me as I am just getting into first HPDE event. They take your experience, goals, mods, and recommend parts based on that, mapping out a plan along the way to further develop you. Getting this kind of insight is a service in and of itself, so their great customer service when ordering and competitive pricing just takes the cake. Glad to be purchasing my brake pads and fluid from them!

JRZ has a North American based office in the US. It would violate their agreement with the headquarters to have a set from the Netherlands dropped off in France. We can certainly help you out with a set of JRZ RS PRO and have the entire kit shipped to you directly from our office. All JRZ setups are application specific.

Thanks for the compliments! Hope to hear more about your HPDE experiences!

Thanks for the answer on JRZ.

They quoted me 5650€ including VAT from Nederland for RS PRO sport.

I'll need to order wheels and brakes from you this winter. At this moment we will check what's the best option on JRZ (from US or Nederland)


BTW, if you're interested, Quantum is looking to enter the 86 market. You could send them an E-mail. They build amazing suspensions :

Thanks! We are open to testing if they are willing to send us a test mule. Penske, Ohlins, Bilstein, and Sachs are always welcomed too!

That's the description they sent me :

"The damper kit for the GT86 is still an evolution part at present and until we have finalised the kit it will remain a development program only.

At present it uses a Ø40mm insert in a fabricated case (See image) on the front to provide a very rigid and low friction unit, we did an initial study on installation stiffness using the traditional Ø22 shaft type strut and found it to be wanting for anything but road use. At present the rear is a traditional monotube damper from our Zero range"


Edit: hum, the pics went sideways for some reason.

We do not have a dyno at our shop. We can recommend you to a shop that has performed thousands of BRZ/FRS pulls. They have data on a variety of setups that can help you do some comparison tests. Please PM us for info.

As usual CSG guys are great, they emailed me concerning that my SPL arms might not be shipping quickly due to timing with SEMA. They came way sooner than expected, thank David and Mike!

Props to @CSG David and @CSG Mike for the start-to-finish process of my edelbrock e-force supercharger purchase and install. i took the tour of the edelbrock factory, decided that this was 'the' kit for me, and pre-ordered from CSG. when they finally got it in stock, we scheduled an install (yesterday) and david worked his ass off installing it. thanks for both david and mike for staying late to get it done. they're both good, no-b.s. guys. thanks, CSG!

Winmax has no plans to stock W2 front pads until further notice. If you have questions on a specific brake pad setup for your vehicle, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Thank you CSG for your help setting up my car with parts you recommend for track domination!

This is Ace header + Ace FP + FlexFuel + SRC coilovers + NT01 vs. stock with RS3's and a rear sway bar.
