So the cusco's on my car are toast and will probably end up on ebay or in the rubbish bin since i can't be bothered to send em overseas for a re/re.

Can someone point me in the direction to which brands make a good quality coilover set suitable for racing an FC?

Some info:
- MUST be rebuildable in Canada/USA.
- Pillowmounts prefered if they come with kit.
- Prefer Separate rebound and compression adjustment over paired adjustment on most. Willing to forgoe this if cost becomes an issue.

- Car will be seeing a lot of usage at Mosport (and some smaller local tracks unfamiliar to those of you in the US but similar in style and paving quality).


Look forward to your input,
Cheers.

 

Budget? Class rules? Still street driven at all?

 

not street driven at all.
class is unlimited suspension mods.
budget 2500$CDN max...and i think our dollar is equal 2 the USD so...2500$ for the coilovers and camber plates by themselves.

 

For that price its still hard to get a full out coilover, or something rebuildable in NA.

But the Stance is pretty close in price/budget quality , then you can go with custom koni yellows with coilover sleeves and specific springs needed.

And the konis are rebuildable in toronto and montreal. So that would be good for you .

But if not the Stances sell the shock cartridge for a very resonable price. so you can always purchase those and have a few spares.

 

any recommendations around the 3000$ range?
i really dont wnt to buy motons for this car...i have em on my porsche and as much as i love em....they're..well....expensive.

 

Theres a big jump in price.

And alot of the cars racing at mosport etc, dont have the $ 5000 suspension setup and do well.

The stance

http://www.stance-usa.com/three.php In the $ 3000 CND range shipped with a set of 4 spare shocks ( shocks are not side dependant so you can use them for both side if you blow it ) to Ontario last i checked.

The koni yellow is another very good option. The koni full setup with camber plates , pillow ball mounts, new shock casings springs etc was around $ 1500 shipped to ontario.

Stance's sponcered car did pretty well

Canadian Touring Car Championship - May 12, 2007

1st Place Finish - Sasha Anis - SG Motorsports S14

 

didn't kno sasha was sponsored by Stance i knew he ditched his D2 coils after they wore out.
just joined CASC officially and the TAC club...hopefully will be ready 2 race next season

FC3S...what are you parting off your car?

 

dont have much left , but I pmd you

 

For that sort of price range I'd give Ground Control a call. You can probably get a set of their Advance Design coilovers for that. They're double adjustable and are reasonably good. They're not as good as stuff like Penske, but they're better than 99% of the off the shelf stuff.

I'd stay away from those Stance triple adjustables. I highly doubt they'll be nearly as good as the Advance Designs. They just don't have enough experiance to pull it off. Maybe in a few iterations they'll be good, but it's their first shot at doing that, and CG's been doing it for many years now.
