How do you like the performance so far, Krazik?

 

Ohlins has a first class reputation in motorcycle suspension...that's what most World Superbike and GP1 racers use.

Their bottom of the line sportbike forks retail for $2400-2500, and their shocks for >$1000. Major bling bling factor, and the stuff works. S/b worth it if you want the best...

 

so far, serious but I haven't even began to push them.

I go to the track tommorrow to test and tune.

I'll let you know then.

 

krazik,

do you only track the car or do you use it as a daily driver?

If it's used as a daily driver, how comfortable are the softer settings as compared to stock?

I've come to the conclusion that the shocks to keep in mind are Ohlins, Motons, Mugen and the Bilstein coilovers. Bilstein offering the best bang for the buck if it's not used for hardcore track days/racing.

 

Any updates on the Bilstein PSS9s ? Are the spring rates known?

 

Why dont you guy step into a set of Buddy Club Coilovers. They are VERY agressive on the valving. Their spring rate is VERY track worthy at 10K per corner. They are a mix between a Zeal B6 with the lower perch adjustability and the hardness of Tein RA with the reasonable price of $1550. I have sold about 8 sets on s2ki, and everyon loves them!
but they are hard to get

 

New Owner Not looking to race, but looking for a smother ride is it possible to change the stock struts to coil overs and get a better ride?

 

If you equate softer with better, then no.

Must coilovers are going to be stiffer than stock on even the softest settings.

 

I imagined they would be stiffer as it's more of a track product but wasn't sure on how much stiffer.

 

Had to revive this old thread because I'm curious to know how you liked the Ohlins setup when you had it Krazik?

What are you running these days?

(can a mod move this to the racing and comp forum please?)
