i came across this because i was thinking of picking up the memory fab seats, my buddy got them and i love them. But i said this coilover set on their website...what do you guys think?

Never heard of them, but looks nice. Similar to the other 100 coilovers on the market right now. Dont see anything special about them. Whats the price?

 

price...

$1000

 

Wow great price.

 

Never heard of em either. However, aren't a set of Tein coilovers a few hundred more? I wouldn't want to be a guinea pig if ya know what I mean

 

what are the spring rates on those?

 

CST suspension is near the 91/60 and does lift kits

 

got the specs for these coilovers?

 

ok...i got the word on the coils from the man. he said the coils are 10k/10k. front and rear respectively. the rebound and dampening are both adjustable. It does come w/ pillowball upper mounts (camber is NOT adjustable [only available on macpherson]). He told me he would do a package price of 1000+700 for the memory fab s58 seat which i really like (carbon seat weighs in @ 5.45 kg (12 lbs)

i think i found myself a cheap b-day present

 

Damn that seat looks like the recaro spg !

 

yeah it does look nice.. and 700 for both is a good *** price.. does it come with rails also??

 

Dont think so I think he gives you the side mount and then you have to bye the slider of bracket.

 

i like those seats but no 5th slot for a 5 point harness

 

no...no brackets. i asked him what slider/rail/bracket to use. and he said..."memoryfab dave: the seat mounts and rails you can use sparco bucket type to mount in"
but still, you could have a pair of 12 lb cf/fiberglass seats in your car for well under a grand and thats WITH the sliders, brackets, and rails. after talking to him, for 5 min, he seemed like a real cool guy. when i left to school, and came back, i saw that he had left me a message i didn't get.

"memoryfab dave: you should keep oem stuff incase you want to sell your car in the future

Auto response from SIMBA D0GG: Falling asleep @ the wheel sucks, i crashed big time...another big day of GT4 ahead of me

memoryfab dave: if you can"

not too many people in business would say something like that, i'm kinda impressed w/ the character... definetly gonna have to keep him, and his seats in mind.

 

interesting... i actually need to msg him about that top secret turbo for the s.. . get some more info on it... now that would be jdm bling...

 

so do the seats have a slot for a 5 pt harness?

 

no...if you want one w/ a 5 point slot, check out the s68. on the same memory fab site...

but i dunno, my friend said he'd get me either recaro spg or bride zeta2 replicas in CF for close to 600 if not less for the pair (hook up price) but still sweet.

 

hook it up.. i want those replicas for 600 too hahaha

 

Damn those look nice also !

Uhh, camber isn't adjustable on the shock mount anyway. Our non-strut setup allows for camber adjustments on the lower control arm or even shortening the upper control arm. Has nothing to do with the shock itself.

As for the seat, looks good, but also similar to an OMP or an SPG (IIRC) from Recaro. Look into Wedge Engineering brackets. They are just the bottom most mounting point and you'll either go with side mounts from there or a bottom mount from there. Little fab work to get it to go, but you can setup something pretty good from there. Otherwise, I wonder if Science of Speed still has their brackets. They would work.

me three

 

the thing that bothers me about those coilovers is the fact that they are steel and can rust over time....if they had an aluminum setup that would be much better but of course the price would also increase

 

didn't even notice that...steel isn't too good

 

That would take a while especially here in cali !
