D2 coilovers

[mattywhitt]

Hi, What do people think of D2 coilovers? I have read little about them, does anybody have them? They are on the bay £460 delivered. I have tanabe coilovers on now but i cant get the car as low as i want. the tanabes will be for sale.
 
Thanks Matthew

Shame to get rid of the Tanabe\'s they would be far better than the D2\'s.

I was looking at getting a set of these this month too. I heard that they are made in the same factory as Tein and G-Force, so doubt they\'ll be too bad. Plus you can adjust the hight with out changing the pre load on the spring.

I\'ve got these on my Rex... can\'t fault them so far (8 months)... apparantly a lot of other Jap owners use them? Quite a few of my friends have them on their Pulsar\'s/ Skylines/ Supras and Evos :burnout

Kash - What are they like on the softest and hardest settings?
Also do you know what spring rate you have?

Cheers

what sort of ride do they give as i want a softer set up on my rex

tbh I haven\'t adjusted the settings since I put them on as I\'ve got used to how they are. The setting is just over half way and the ride isn\'t too harsh, but a bit firmer then usual... (softer then my Golf\'s Spax coilovers on the same setting)... I will have to find out the spring rates as can\'t remember at the moment

I would keep the tanabe\'s if i could get them to go a bit lower? Would different springs help?

[jm-garage.co.uk]

You can get different springs for the Tanabe coilover. Do you know what ones you have i can get you some details.

[mattywhitt]

I got them of Martin at Speeline Imports, would different springs lower the car further though?

[mattywhitt]

Tanabe Sustec Pro Coilovers - FD3S  Thats what Martin advertised them as.

By fitting differnt springs it would allow to have more movement up and down the thread on the body damper. Also by doing this you can drop the car without messing with the preload of the spring as much.

[mattywhitt]

Can you get me a price for different springs? I just tried to ring you.

D2 are definatly not made in same factory as tein. Tho they are the exact same as k-sport.

hi matt what lenght spring have you got on it if you fit shorter springs it will lower the car,i have just changed the springs on my nitrons for longer ones as i was running out of adjustment so i have them at work if they are shorter,
i think the tanbes would be better (you get what you pay for) give me a ring if you want with the measurements 0121 753 0415
