HSD Coilovers - High performance road and track coilover systems.
Available from European Distributors for a wide range of performance cars from www.trackculture.com and www.driftworks.com
The HSD HR coilover is exactly what the performance tuning market has been crying out for. No longer do you have to accept an inferior/compromised product when spending less than £1000 on coilover suspension.
The HSD HR has been specced by HSD Europe, for our roads, and tracks, with the knowledge and experience gained by HSD Europe using the now world famous Driftworks Control System Coilover made by HSD.
HSD Coilovers use a very well respected and proven Monotube damper design combined with high quality hardware. This level of quality and performance is usually found on much more expensive suspension products. This is high end competition winning suspension available direct from the factory at affordable prices.
KW Coilovers Variant 2 on a BMW E36 M3 | BMW suspension upgrade
http://www.autowerksofamerica.com/ KW Coilovers are becoming a more popular option for BMW and other German car owners. The build quality is good and the construction materials mean that you won't have to worry about rust. They offer products both for street and racing applications.
We're performing a suspension upgrade on an 1997 BMW M3. KW offers four coilover possibilities for this car.
Variant 1 allows you to change the ride height
Variant 2 allows you to change the ride height and the rebound damping
Variant 3 allows you to change the ride height and both the rebound and the compression damping
The club sport package is more aggressive, but can also be used on the street has an additional expansion reservoir. It also comes with adjustable camber plates.
I selected variant 2 to give me some damping adjustability without having to manage the complexity of the additional variable of compression damping.
Here's what's in the box.
The struts have the springs mounted already, you can see the shocks here and the springs were packed well with protective foam that I've already removed.
The toolbox comes with instructions, a spanner wrench, a nice purple knob with the hex key and this pin. The pin is for the variant 3 package, so I don't need it. They've included some stickers as well, but I haven't decided if I'll put them on my car.
For this application swaybar links are included. 5mm Front wheel spacers are recommended but not included. They have to be sourced separately, but we can help you with that.
Here's a closeup of the strut damping. You can't see it, but there's a slight detent feel to the adjustment to help you track how many "clicks" you've gone in either direction.
The knob is also used to tighten the lock screw on the ride height adjusting ring, but the instructions caution you to be careful with the torque.
To order any KW Coilovers or ST Sport Shocks, contact us at sales@autowerksofamerica.com.
MX-5 Suspension upgrade
Earlier this year we put this video together of our MX5 being fitted with all new Pedders eXtreme coil-overs. Originally when took the car to the Wakefield Park, just running the lowered springs we pulled out, the car managed a 1:16.3 with only a basic brake upgrade, intake Exhaust and Advan AD08 tyres. We're happy to say that with the eXtreme coil-overs fitted, we shaved off a whole second and got the car down to a 1:15.1. The amazing part too is that this was with no major adjustments to the suspension given the amount available and as the day progressed we suffered a sticky rear brake caliper which affected braking performance, yet were still able to go just as fast!
Big thanks to Adam Gillick from Pedders, as well as the team from Pedders Bankstown, Pedro, Allan and Dimitri.
If you're keen on the eXtreme Coil-Overs for your car, then head to the Pedders website which is www.pedders.com.au or www.peddersusa.com if you're in the US to check out how many cars they're available for!

Katie's 340whp Subaru WRX
READ: The Dyno these numbers were logged on reads a little high. Katie says it realistically makes ~300whp. Enough hate. Mods are listed below.
Link to Dyno video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulNZRg2no1o&
This is Katie's 2004 WRX, aptly named "Rumble". A full modification list is included below. This was filmed during photo shoot done by a friend and myself.
It seemed like everything was working against me on this shoot. Forgot my tripod, batteries died, etc. Not my best work but I enjoyed hanging out and shooting this beauty of a motor carriage.

2011 Lexus ISF on 20's Lowered on KW V3 Adjustable Coilovers (install vid)
Here is the new KW V3 coilovers i was talking about in the last few video's........installed! These things are great! They ride perfect and i have no "cut or rub" even on a full u-turn. So far it rides as good, if not better then stock. Of course the ride height is not the only thing that is adjustable, the rebound and compression rates are also adjustable.

Skunk2 Pro-S II Coilover Suspension
Forget what you know about coilovers. Skunk2's completely redesigned, fully adjustable Pro-S II Coilovers have arrived. Similar to Skunk2's industry-leading Pro-C Coilovers, Pro-S II Coilovers now feature double-adjustable ride height and a state-of-the-art mono-tube design. Thanks to threaded shock bodies, Pro-S II Coilovers now offer height adjustments independent of spring preload, which results in significant ride-height changes without sacrificing shock travel or ride comfort. Watch the video to learn more.
How to install coilover suspension on a Nissan Skyline
We show you how to fit a set of HSD coilovers to an R33 Skyline GTS25t. The instructions pretty much apply to R32, R33, R34 and Stagea C34, except that some of these use a fork-type lower mount at the rear, which is not a big difference. Remember that in most cases you will need a wheel alignment too and it is a good idea to have a suspension shop check over your installation to make sure everything is safe. For more information go to www.otomoto.com.au
We will have more videos coming soon showing how to fit HSD coilovers to other models.
