get buddyclub - Ask JDM if they have any other suggestions on picking up





If you need cheap fitting let me know.

999Auto is also distributor of Buddyclub, 999autos main warehouse is in Sydney.

Check them out, they will match the price if its more but I'm pretty sure it is priced the same

Hmmm.. I'm tossing up between n+ and bc br for street use only. Any issues with build quality with these coilovers that anyone might know of? Want something reliable for shitty sydney roads.

Sorry to op for hijacking thread btw haha.

Mate n+ for sure

Trust me. If you want to go the lowest, n+ is also the way to go

I'm sorry, but that's incorrect.
N+ is not known for going very low, especially at the front.

This is my ek9 with N+ and the front at the lowest it can go. The rear was still able to go lower.

Although you can get more adjustment out of them by installing a set of extended top hats.

Look into KW

This...

For a S2000, I'd invest into better dampened or/and advanced coilovers like KW , Bilstein [PSS9] or TODA for instance. Last thing you need from a S2000 is for it to react 'badly' to bumps...

If youre interested to see the lengths KW go to for R&D then take a look at this http://youtu.be/NhO8XRFsBNQ?t=36m15s

they use a road simulator which can replicate any circuits surface for analysis and suspension setting/design

Thanks for your replies guys! I've heard kw v3's are really good but I think it might be a waste for me since I don't track my car and only use it as a daily hence why I'm after something a little cheaper.

Tire rack have bilstein pss9s for around 1.5k shipped which I'm starting to lean towards. Too bad they don't have stock ATM. I don't mind paying an extra few hundred for a better quality coilover. Looks like I'm off to do some more homework on these coilovers!

The PSS9s are great with digressive valving, monotube design, bilstein quality and 9 step damper adjustment.

You will be amazed of the ride quality and comfort from the KW's. My brother was a massive fan of KW suspension, all his cars had them and he loved the ride quality

Not sure if you saw these vids of Rob fitting KW clubsport in his S2k. His s2000 was the closest challenger to the evasive motorsports S2000, and yet he drives it daily with the KW's

Up to you end of the day, good luck :thumbsup:

I would be amazing if its that low on N+ without any extra work such as extended top hats.
Iv looked for a build thread, all I could find was an article stating that the blue ek's running N+, but no additional information.

They are on standard n+, no extended top hats

Amazeballs.

There was no way in hell my N+'s were going to allow me to go that low without extra work.
