Cheers guys.

Found out the best price i can get from Japan for the Flag-R is roughly $6400 del

Which isnt to bad. Something alittle cheaper would be better tho.

Cheers Luke

If you want something with the remote oil canistor. also check out Tein or nismo

Nismo; they are Ohlins with nismo custom springs

Tein: Circuit Master : Super Racing

http://www.tein.co.jp/e/products/super_racing.html

I run the Tein in my R33 track car and they are extremely good, i think it is 30x30 adjustable (30 rebound, 30 damper) so total of 900 adjustments. However remember with alot of adjustment it means alot of track time to tune them correctly, and i have yet to find anyone that can setup these coilovers. So you will be basically on a guess and check method at the track which is very time consuming and can be costly.

Also as mention above contact Jesse and he will get you a quote direct from Ohlins in japan which i am guessing will be cheaper than the 6k quote.

Ohline DFV retail around the 2.5k mark in japan.

Quantum is another brand to check out also

They are a European brand (make suspension for ferrari etc) but also deal with jdm cars

Cheers guys. I'll look into those when I'm home from work later today. If I remember the quantum's have extremly high spring rates that would be shocking for our bumpy track here.

The quote on the ohlins came from Jesse, just the shocking exchange rate is killing me.

    • Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.
    • You need to know I am sorry for this.  
    • As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1    
    • Nah. H2S. H2S is "rotten egg gas", which is what is associated with no cat. SO2 is equally nasty, and if you've ever smelt it you'll know all about it. More of a choking, acid in the back of the throat sort of thing. But you can only smell it in a narrow range up to about 1ppm. Above that, it irritates your mucous membranes, but you don't smell it.
    • Kicked the 34 in the guts, she won’t be seeing the road till I get the 31 mobile again.  wont be long and she’s a bit of a garage princess anyway haha
