Aragosta Type-S Coilovers

[GRKGTR]

Hey all,

Has anyone had proper experience (Road & Track) with these coilovers? Preferably the later model variants (Rubber mounts) which have the WPC processed internals..

I've searched around the forum but have found nothing recent.. I know they are very popular in Japan but I'm guessing because of price that they aren't used here a lot.

Using these at the moment with the rubber mounts and my impression of them is quite good.

Used them at Suzuka many times.

Cheers Meathead, Have you had any issues with them? Are they rough on the street? (assuming you have the 7kg Front/5kg Rear)

Mine are the R33 model which is 8 kg front 8 kg rear.

Adjustments are on the street -12 clicks front 15 clicks rear

Windy roads 5 clicks front 8 clicks rear

Circuit 1 click front 5 clicks rear.

Maybe a little harsh on the street if the road is lumpy but apart from that its fine,  great on the track.

Was thinking of the Ohlins DFV which are the same price and very similar but went for these instead.

No regrets.
