Anyone seen this?
Strut tubes are fabricated to match the dimensions of the P30 Bilsteins using thick-walled tubing and mounting brackets, providing a much stronger strut., enabling it to take more abuse without bending or deforming. Optimized for E-Production ride heights, the spindle is mounted approximately 1.5" higher than on the 0000-04-7201-AC kit that we sell, which allows for adequate shock travel without binding the shock or spring during compression. Kit includes (2) fabricated strut tubes, (2) threaded sleeves, (2) lower spring perches. Springs and shocks are not included. http://www.mazdamotorsports.com/wcsc...04-7202-AC.jpg CARTRIDGE, FRONT STRUT - BILSTEIN 2 RX-7 ALL 1986-91 $121.90 Notes: #P30-0032.

since when did blisten make shocks for a FC?
|
I beleive this is the setup O'Bleans runs in his BP car. I had heard a rumor that Blistein gave him a setup to use. It must be nice. I want to win at the nationals so I can get free stuff too.
|
but the mazdaspeed motorsports website only mentions fronts, what about the rears?
damn another setup to ponder, first it was k2rd, then Tein HA for 1050 USD now this? ah! |
Jims,
Why is bilstein shock setup so great? what makes it so much better then say the ground control koni setup or the same thing with KYB AGX? they are all around the same price. Now how about say Tein HA, i know TEIN are not allowed in rule book, but my car is more for my personal enjoyment and attending local autox and lapping days rather then to compete to for the national championship. -thanks Jason |
ok been doing more and more research on the bilsteins.
the front are P30-0032, which are not height adjustable, hence the sleeves mazdaspeed motorsports offers. The rears are apprantly height adjustable, but i'm not sure which model number exactly. the fronts are off a 79-92 VW Cabriolet (Convertible), the rears for this car are B46-0657. I can't find any info on how much adjustablility there is, and what size springs you will need. I'm guessing it will use the eibach ERS 2.5 inch springs, but i'm also not sure how stiff a spring the shocks can damp. the bilstein site offers next to no info on shock models. spoke to some ITS people at improvedtouring.com, and they said there is no real difference going with bilsteins, HYB, Tokkico, KONI, it just depends on what is more convienient with you. Been reading more and more on the japanese coilovers. such as Tein HA, http://www.rxecret7.com/ offers them for 1050, does not include camber plates or pillow mounts. |
what that is is the generic bilstein strut put into a housing so that it will fit the fc. the cool thing about the bilsteins is that they are cheap (200each) and you can order them with your valving specs. we have some similar stuff lying around.
