New PBM Coilovers

[BoostinIX]

Saw these on Zilvia, looking pretty badass Just sharing the word for those looking at getting coils.

Whats new for 2011 at Parts Shop MAX USA - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum


BIG NEWS!

The pro coilovers are finished and ready to ship.

Models are:
S13 8/10KG
S14 8/10 KG
S15 8/10 KG
Z33 10/12 KG
BK (genesis coupe) 6/8 KG

We will get a VERY limited number of these because this is the first run. The Price is $1500/set and we will be pre-selling the shipment while its on the way. We will have them in our San Diego warehouse in 4 weeks. MAX PRO coilovers have many of the best things you have come to expect from our competition coilovers like front and rear pillowball spring perches, light weight mounting brackets and full tap super low independent ride height adjustability. They also have high quality components and a robust damper but unlike the comp. coilover which is a pretty stiff ride that compliments lower power cars, the damping on the PRO coilover has been fine tuned for a softer range by Eisuke Kawamori of Parts Shop MAX Japan to give high grip that high power cars require. The softer damper with more adjustability also compliments the Swift Springs which feel softer than our standard springs because the rate is more linear. The swift springs make this pro coilover even lighter than the comp coilovers. Alternatively this pro coilover feels very comfortable on the street and has increased stroke. I'll post dynos when they become available, but for now I just wanted to give advanced notice to those who have been waiting a long time for a first glimpse.

Your requests on our wish list forum were taken into account here. These have been development for over a year after and prototypes have seen action throughout the 2010 Formula D season on Tommy Roberts and Matt Powers car (before Matt finally got picked up by major FD sponsor KW). So far the 2011 season will see privateer Ryan Kado, (top drift, thunder drift Champion & FD rookie) running these on his 350Z. I have personally put more than 10,000 daily driven miles into testing these on the streets in my genesis. With the success of our exsisting coilovers over the last 4 years, we were in no hurry to release a new coilover line until it has met our expectations and withstood more abuse than you will give them through competition and crashes. They had to be dead sexy too - so we came up with a new look that has never been seen before by replacing orange and gold with real copper and mirror gold so we cant be mistaken for other products out there who use similar colors. Look for this color scheme in upcoming 2011 products designed to compliment the PRO coilovers. We hope you enjoy what we have worked so hard to create for you.
Sincerely, the entire team at Parts Shop MAX Japan and USA

Wow, those are purdy. I wonder if they're actually a quality product, though. I haven't seen many people talk about them.

[BoostinIX]

Well they're not out yet :P

[RikRong]

I was talking about the PBM stuff in general.

[BoostinIX]

Well. Snag a set and let me know :P Consensus seems positive. If/When the Nismo's blow, might go with those.

PBM always presents Top quality products, ALOT of us stand BEHIND PBM for the research and design they put into their products, All their adjustable suspension arms have bends in them to compensate for Lowered cars, All their stuff is made to order, all hand welded and good shit.

Here's a video of them making adjustable suspension arms to show you how good their shit it.

PBM pricing is a little cheaper then Stance when it comes to Coils and RUCA and on par for the rest of your multi-link suspension setup.

Pricey compared to Megan Racing, yes, but the reviews seem to speak for themselves.

[BoostinIX]

They're right on par compared to other mid-range coils.
