Default Got a call back from Ohlins shocks this morning

To all R owners

They are making a high performance street shocks for the Integra Type R in the next month or so, somewhere from $1400 to $1650 a set and for the full race is about $1700 each $6800 a set, need fabrication for the mounting, 50% deposit and take about 2 to 3 weeks.
He told me the full race version is the same one as in the Indy cars, I don't think I can affort that. I'll stick with the Mugen N1 damper, I will post the contact info if anyone is interested.

You think that's expensive? My bro used to have a Honda Hawk motorcycle. The bike cost $4k. You could get an Ohlins suspension for $10k. This is for two shocks...

Hey what are the features on this street perf. kit? Perch adjustable only with compression? I've seen a kit like this before but for the EG6 offered by Ohlins....

Just curious, is this the Made in Sweden Ohlins, or the Made in Japan (under license) offered by Labo Carrozerria? I've seen those PCV coilovers and they were kinda shoddy. Nothing like the real Ohlins stuff for motorbikes.

Tarmac, no offense, but no way Ohlins remote reservoir shocks cost 10K. Their WSB-spec forks don't even cost that much.
