Hey Guys,
I noticed most folks run HKS coilovers and there are plenty of other options out there but two that I thought was pretty interesting is the new RSR Best i-Active coilovers and the Ballade Sports Swift Springs coilovers.
The RSRs was recently released. Based on what I’ve seen, they retain the dampening system based on drive modes ( R mode, sports mode, etc) which should be more “daily” friendly but still perform well on the track. Their springrates also dont seem too aggressive. Autotuned, based out in SoCal, seems to be the sole distributor right now and they worked on I think maybe 2-3 Type Rs for testing.
The Ballade Sports Coilovers seem to have been out for a few months now and after speaking with them it looks like they fine tuned and developed the whole coilover with Swift to be specifically for the Type R.
Anyone interested or have tried either? Since the RSRs are basically new I don’t think anyone has had a chance to try them besides those that were a part of the R&D process with Autotuned but am curious about feedback on the Ballade Sports coilovers if anyone has them.
