Need more info. Part numbers, etc.

Price?



Mine is a one-off 3way version and I believe the first ever kit for 370z, but most PSi Ohlins are custom anyway so price varies from options and settings. This is a new kit so there’s no part number yet, but contact Beau from Performance Shock Inc. and you should be able to get a quote for it. The first time I drove this after install was why didn’t I buy this much sooner, lol.

Do you remember your spring rates with your kit?

Yeah it’s F1100 and R600 coilover setup, but surprisingly it’s more comfort on street than DFV with F650 R600 factory setup I had.

I'm sure the valving has a lot to do with that. Thanks for the info.

Yeah the high speed compression is working really well on the ride comfort part!

I've got PSI making me a set of 2-way Ohlins TTX. I run them on some of my other cars, and like them a lot.

My current Ohlins DFV's were custom valved by PSI as well, running 900F/1000R (non-coilover rear). Will use the same spring rates with the TTX. I prefer the divorced rear setup. I'll actually be posting up my custom valved DFV's for sale soon. They have super low miles (less than 3K). It's a great setup for this car to be honest, especially when you valve them for higher rates.

Between the TTX and my OS Giken LSD tune/rebuild, the car should be a lot better on track!

I have no idea how people are running this car with no rear bar, or just stock rear bar with a huge Hotchkis front bar. I run this car on square 275 tire and staggered setup (275/295 or 265/285).
On all tire setups, I still run my Hotchkis rear on full stiff, with 1000lb rear springs (divorced OE setup) along with a 900lb front spring.

The car handles perfectly neutral on 275/295 (18" tires) and 265/285 (19" tires) for the track. On square it's just a bit free. I don't understand how people drive these cars without frustration on track.
I guess people like understeer.

Reminds me of E92 M3 land, where all the owners don't install a rear aftermarket swaybar simply because it's difficult, and then run a very small spring split. I run the hotchkis rear on full stiff in that car on square tire setup with no aero and the car handles beautifully. Again, people must like understeer.

^^ you got all those cars in your sig? Damn bro! :rock:

I always thought a smaller/less stiff sway bar in the rear was better for rear grip. I actually opted for the bigger sway in the front and stock in the rear. Interesting reasoning for a stiffer rear setup.

My TTX showed up, so my Ohlins R&T kit will be up for sale soon.
Sorry, I actually have the Eibach rear bar, as it's a bit bigger than the Hotchkis. Have Hotchkis up front though. Car handles really nicely.

I'll posted up another thread for my Ohlins R&T for sale. They are mint, and a great shock. I didn't really have any reason to upgrade to be honest.

Tested the new Giken LSD rebuild, and it works great now. So the car should be even more fun once I get these installed and properly sorted!

Here is my FS add for my Ohlins R&T DFV coilover kit.
