New owner coilover question - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Whackapus · 01-19-2023, 04:23 PM

I recently just purchased a 2017 Subaru BRZ, and the car had some mods on it. It has a pair of the Öhlins Road & Track suspension and Raceseng cascam camber plates. The issue is that the previous owner decided to run the setup perch-less (to get the car lower?). As a result the springs bind extremely horribly. The plan is to buy some Öhlins perches and install them. The issue is are these compatible? Do I need to use the Öhlins spacer or to I need to get a Raceseng one? This is my first car purchase, so I would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks!
