how about HKS. i've heard very good things about them. also JIC. both are about $2k. if you don't want to go with coilovers. i know some people with koni's and kg-mm springs. the springs are kinda hard to find. but they're great.

Jason- Could you tell us (me) a little more about this Buddy Club suspension. Do you know what the spring rates are? How adjustable is the dampening and is the rebound adjustable? Are the springs progresssive?

grngtcfd3s- The JIC has a progressive spring. That is not what I want for my track car although I have heard many good things about the JIC FLT-A2.

Here it is right from BUDDY CLUB...



The Racing Spec Damper Kit the Buddy Club the advanced racing aluminum damper (professional specifications 30 * P -1racing the Damper) and the like with past 15 years concentrates the enormous data of the racing car * tuning car and the like which is accumulated, inserts the street in range of vision and it is the advanced sport suspension kit to which winding and circuit travelling et cetera set possible damper size * spring rate * attenuation power * stroke and the like.





Adjustment bracket



Not using the helper spring with the adoption of the adjustment bracket, low position of ideal is actualized without being able to lay idle the spring. As for the adjustment bracket total length of approximately 2mm damper changes with 1 revolution.

As for finishing the shell case it is not paint in the same way and it is the real specification which administers off black plating.







As for strut type all inverted systems



Input from the tire (road surface state) and behavior of the body as for strut high rigidity is required by because it absorbs directly. The Racing SPEC DAMPER standing upside down (the ram) adopts formula for all strut types and actualizes high rigidity. In the ram tube of the steel make pulling removal steel hard chromium plating 20 - 30 micron administering -20 regarding arctic the quality which is not exfoliated - you are proud.







Attenuation power 15 step adjustment function

Pass * circuit travelling meeting (marketing radial tire use) to it corresponds to wide travelling stage from the street with the adoption of attenuation power 15 step click adjustment system, adjustment has adopted the click system which is easy to understand. As for the uprighting type damper shaft top, attenuation power modification can do the inverted type damper simply with the adjustment dial of lower part.

And, basic attenuation power has made the setting which riding comfort with urban district travelling is considered.

Modification value of attenuation power adjustment approximately 4kg/mm rise of adjustment dial strongest (hard) with basic spring rate / most weakness (the software) with has set the attenuation power modification range which it can correspond to the rate modification of approximately 4kg/mm down. (Part model is excluded)

* Basic spring rate the SPEC chart reference.

Single tube type shell case

Is different from the cartridge type height pitch just of appearance and wishbone type phi 46/ strut types phi uses 36 and the class largest piston with the adoption of the real single tube shell case and guarantees liberal capacity. Also heat dissipation characteristic the preeminence, prevents the attenuation _ with hard travelling and, by making single tube system.

The material adopts anti- worn characteristic and the steel make pulling removal steel which is superior in precision and actualizes friction conversion low. As as for finishing it is not paint and it administers off black plating and the ray sea finishes in atmosphere the quality which does not have the times when it fades forever - you promise.

Naturally, also overhaul is possible.

Car classification private pyro upper mount

The aluminum is used for the material, finishing has made hard lead alumite specification. The element clear forcing handling response is promised by standard equipping the pyro upper mount. On the front of strut type camper adjustment function is equipped. (Excludes part model) and, the pyro ball to adopt the domestic famous brand item which is superior in durability, preeminent quality - you promise.

Spring seat * lock seat

The aluminum is used to the material and the lead alumite is administered to finishing. Approximately 2mm it moves each seat with 1 revolution. It can do the adjustment of spring preload without changing the height with the combined use with the adjustment bracket. More delicate setting becomes possible by utilizing spring preload.

Hard urethane bush

Using the urethane make bush whose hardness is high to the bush section which connects the body and the damper, it puts out to model exclusive use and with produces, actualizes more rigid rigid impression. Urethane hardness has used the material which seriously considered durability.

For medium * upper-class person driver of genuine oriented birth of suspension kit (under racing car above street)



It is birth of the new concept damper which succeeds the lineage of the flagship damper P-1racing Damper of the Buddy Club.

Concept it depends on the " ultralow friction ", it can withstand " comfort " hard travelling condition, compatibility of " sport trafficability ". The development theme which is contrary it is compatible the on the basis of the past result and experience in the higher-order origin and from street travelling of riding comfort concern to Sunday race/lace such as circuit travelling meeting, it corresponds to flexible in wide travelling stage with the adoption of attenuation power 15 step adjustment function.

While racing quality - actualizing in everything, it actualizes the ultimate rope rice where it cannot follow other companies.
