Thumbs up Coilovers

Does anyone have any experience with these? Or know the specs for these?

http://www.modacar.com/products/Honda/S2000/SSADK/

I'm looking for mainly spirited street use. They look like only height adjustable which is fine as long as the dampers are a good fit for what I am looking for. The full adjustable Spoons are just seriously out of my league and I'll probably never get to use them to its full potential (ie. track)

I also have the Bilstein PSS9s in mind. Thanks.

PS: It's stated it's for AP1s, but will it fit my AP2?

They will fit.

I have never been in an S with them so I dont know how the ride is. I do hear good things about the Bilsteins and the KW's though

Spoons are not height adjustable.

those dont look like the ones i have from spoon.. those dont even look like Spoon at all to be honest.

i have the spoon fixed dampers. they look like this :





they dont come with springs. they are basically revalved showas to accomodate a little bit stiffer spring. i'm running swift mach springs on mine which give only about a 20mm drop.

those say they give a 35-40mm drop.. which is about an 1.5" drop. i don't think spoon sells any sort of setup like that. the only fixed damper setup with springs spoon has cost around $2K and look like this:



i really love the setup. it rides really smooth, kind of like a german car. when it comes to the turns though, they keep my tires planted very nicely even over bumpy surfaces.. i credit some of that to my swift springs too. i noticed my setup is lower and stiffer than my friends new civic SI but my car rides a lot smoother over bumps than his.

i'm going to upgrade to the full spoon adj coilover setup /w swift springs in the future when i start to heavily track the car. but this is the perfect street setup for a really good price (about $1k with springs).

i got my setup from opak racing - http://www.opakracing.com
