[MIK020]

hey boys and girls so im waiting on my brake pads and rotor to be delivered after they sent me the wrong ones but i was having a look at my coilovers the the previous owner put in and there BTM i havent heard of this brand before then again thats not hard havent been in to Japaneses motoring long lol but im just wondering wat are they like? and i noticed that the rear coilover sleeve is ripped would this effect it aka dry the piston out faster or anything ?



Cheers

MIK020 that is not BTM coilovers... I have checked for reviews itself and nothig is showing for that model... as far I can tell/look the spring rate appears to be 8-12 weight...

if you can maybe take more pics of the coils overall so we can actually check what mode and model it is.

Thanks

EDIT***

you have DTM coilovers.. Japanese company and appears to be good qaulity coilovers... as I checked for reviews... I think the company might be dead for some time casue no one has heard nor knows about the brand itself... apparently it was originally for BMW/VW cars

ok will do so i guess the previous owner has done the dodgy on me again lol

and for your question... no the ripped rubber wont affect performence to the piston itself.. however i would suggest to replace it and it will wear down alot quicker which will fragile the springs without support

ok cool might have a look around and see if i can get parts for it

Cool thanks I don't think they need a complete rebuild it just looks like the top mount rubbers are cracking lol

well had the car up on the hoist today and noticed the rear coilovers where leaking the one on the drivers side was kinda bad but dont have money to get parts well till i do the brakes and and rear bushes and new rubber lol
