IWSTI Addict since: Aug 2003 Trader Rating: (7)   |  Some More Coilover Options. Ohlins DFV Ohlins Just came out with these bad boys! We got them in stock so I will post more images a little later on today. Öhlins Racing AB also manufactures shock absorbers for road going performance cars. We have developed a shock absorber kit for a variety of sporty cars, including BMW, Audi, Mitsubishi and Porsche, and are in the process of producing shock absorbers for many more. This product range for street cars dramatically improves traction, handling and at the same time the comfort of the car. The shock absorbers are produced in Sweden and Japan with the specifications, and above all, the development made in Sweden. All shock absorbers are individually tuned for each model and its specific characteristics. We test ourselves by fitting shock absorbers to each vehicle and conducting thorough tests. As usual, we believe in trying to combine the hard-to-define ‘feeling’ of our experienced drivers with measurement data obtained from our advanced equipment. Subaru GRB GFV Features 1. • 25 clicks of rebound adjustment 2. • Adjustable front camber plates 3. • Inverted front 4. • Includes helper springs 5. • Includes main springs 1. o Front rate- 9KG/MM. 2. o Rear rate- 7KB/MM        What you guys think?

IWSTI Addict since: Nov 2003 Trader Rating: (2) | Re: Some More Coilover Options. Ohlins DFV Ohlins is billing these at street oriented coilovers? What kind of matainence would they require for a year round daily driver? How do you feel they compare to the KWs? (Besides the extra $1k!) |

IWSTI Addict since: Aug 2003 Trader Rating: (7) | Re: Some More Coilover Options. Ohlins DFV No maintenance. If you drive in the winter, just spray the salt off every time you wash the car. Ride wide. Ohlins are much nicer then KW's. They ride like stock, but handle amazingly. Also they dont have double metastability. So you dont have to be a rocket scientist to set them up |
