Who makes coilovers for the S2000? I know H&R makes some, but who else does? I'm looking for a 1.5 - 2.0 inch drop, BTW. Thanks alot!

i have comptech coilovers.
i know ground control sell them too.

oh yeah, you're talking about just the coilover, right?...and not the shock too?
anyone else know any?

 

Actually there is quite a few. I also have Comptech Coilovers with Koni adjustable shocks. Here are some others:

Spoon Coilovers
Mugen Coilovers
Comptech Coilovers
Custco Coilovers
Zeal Coilovers
HKS Coilovers
H & R Coilovers
BuddyClub Coilovers
Ground Control Coilovers
Tein Coilovers
All of these are pretty good.

 

If you are only looking for a 1.50" - 2.00" drop in overall height, why don't you look into aftermarket springs only? I know HKS and kg/mm make aftermarket lowering springs for the S2000.

Honestly, I wouldn't make any changes to the handling of the car unless you are a suspension guru. The car is pretty much dialed in from the factory. You haven't even recieved the car yet (according to your signature), so I would learn to drive the car as it sits before I did anything.

Just my opinion.

 

As I remember SPOON(SHOWA), Mugen, Buddy Club, Cusco, DMS, JIC etc all have coilovers for AP1.

 

Yeah, I don't have it yet, but when I do get it, I would like a nice drop. Thanks alot for replying everyone.

 

I can hook you up on HKS and Tein coilovers. IM me if your interested. I need a new s2k sponsor car since my newly aquired one got t-boned when he wasn't paying attention and ran a redlight!

 

TEIN RS' are super nice

 

Don't forget Quantum-Japan (which are actually made in the UK); the CR is the top of the line

 

isn't that the Spoon s2k race car you have pictured with the Teins on it?

 

sp0000000nnnn

 

TEIN

 

Don't think so. The SPOON AP1 that raced in Super Taikyu use SPOON N1 coilovers made by SHOWA.

 

*smacks forhead*

 

Showa makes the OEM suspension for the S2000 as well.

 

How about the Zeal's?

 

lol mario...Tien's rock

 

Spoon N1 dampers Tein

 

AJ Racing will give the only for the brands that they carry. I'm suprised you didn't mention Buddy Club or Zeal. They're better than TEIN's too right?

 

 

dont forget about ...

 

AJ pwr. I understand you are one of the importer for spoon. can you tell me why you pick spoon over Tein? Tein retails for a lottt less. Comes with 1 year warranty, do you offer 1 year warranty on your Spoon coilover? Tein have a facility in NA. Which offers rebuild on shocks that's blown or wear down. Do you offer rebuild shocks if one of the shocks blown. Here's the paste from Tein website of Tein RA. Don't knock on a product until you understand it. Tein - number 1 sold coilovers in Japan.

This product has adopted into its package, the specifications used in the rally field such as the World Rally Championship. We have constructed a footwork for you which puts priority into its function.
A high grade specification which gives you a unique driving feeling
Introduction of specifications used at competition levels
Adopted a single rod structure for better reception between driver and road surface.

A linear damping effect which catches even the smallest road surface information by adopting the single rod structure.
Seamless tube using a drawing method. Processing technology which enables a high level of precision up to 1/100mm of the inner diameter. Inner surface precision up to 3.2S (inner surface bumps within +/- 1.6 micrometer)
Use of ultra light and strong aluminum - A7050 which is also used in airplanes.
A I.D.45 piston which is maximum for marketed cars' shock absorber.
A different diameter multi-level valve structure which enables damping effect and specifications adjustment.
The damping effect adjustment structure uses a evolved version of the special shaped needle valve which has already been proven in the HA/NA dampers.
