i wonder if these go lower than the 1st gens. cause those dont drop for sh!t. id like to see some pics with these installed

I have them on my tC and have seen many other cars on Racelands. Usually they slam very nicely. Katie had them on her Mk3 GTi.

They go low on a lot of cars but don't go any lower than 3" on the 1st gens

DeadCannon · 01-18-2012, 03:13 PM

I found out because a friend sent me a text to ask my opinion on them. I told him that I like mine but I'd wait until a few people get on them to see how they are.

Are coilovers have a stiffer ride than the TRD? I have TRD now... Apologies for the newb question.
Thanks

Probably. I don't know the rates right off.

There's a local guy that got the first set for fitment purposes. He's an older guy, and the car isn't even remotely close to hammered.
I need to swing by their warehouse and talk to someone. We need a set in the hands of someone that will properly hammer an xB2.
Lucky thing for them, I know a guy.

Would love to see pictures of this setup

BoogerXB · 01-26-2012, 01:32 AM

Pics? How's the ride?

DeadCannon · 01-26-2012, 05:24 AM

We need someone to get these and just slam the nuts off them. I wanna see how low they go.

xseveredveganx · 01-26-2012, 01:49 PM

So buy them. They're really not that much. Until someone actually buys them, no one will know.

If I come up on some time, I could swing by their place. But that's few and far between.

DeadCannon · 01-26-2012, 01:51 PM

I got air for my xB the week before these came out so I'm out.

Meeko · 03-07-2012, 12:55 AM

I'm thinking about picking these up and using the full 3" drop they have listed

. I'll keep you guys posted.

DeadCannon · 03-07-2012, 08:32 AM

Rep for guinea pig!

SoCalxBDeux · 03-16-2012, 10:57 AM

That is super cheap for coilovers. Am I missing something?

dJdRoPz · 03-18-2012, 10:02 PM

ok guys well i have the raceland coils on for over 2 weeks now and here is a video of how they sit.

front is maxed out still sitting on 2 collars and rear i have removed one collar. i love the ride quality. not soft but stiff. no homo. oh and not too stiff its like perfect for me. im actually happy with them. will go lower later.

Use them with air. A good friend of mine with an STI has Raceland and is strongly considering this. The UAS bags will fit on the bodies of the Racelands, so everything should work well. He has called them with the idea and, of course, they recommend him to not proceed. Only problem I can forsee would be higher wear on the dampers.
