HSD Coilovers
 

Hey all,

I've scoured the internetz but came to no avial in finding any reviews on people running HSD coilovers on the RX-8. I spoke to JRP up here in Toronto about Stance getting some Stance coilovers. JRP doesnt carry Stance but they said that the same manufacturer makes the HSD ones. I couldnt find anything to confirm what JRP said.

here is the link:http://www.driftworks.com/shop/p638/...duct_info.html

So has anyone heard anything about HSD coilovers, are they any good?

thanks again,

Dre

I have just ordered a set of these and should be recieving them shortly.. ill post and let u know by july 10th ish!

damn.. 1200usd

yea... the rep loves me now.. haha.. those, seibon dry carbon ts hood and dry carbon trunk... ouch on my part for the bill tho.. haha

Nice sounds good Q-Ball looking forward to hearing the review. They look pretty sweet

Just keeping everyone updated...i emailed Driftworks and asked if they were in any way affiliated with Stance, their customer liaison said "No :)" i don't know why the hell theres the smiley face but im thinking its against company policy to say they are affiliated...or maybe hes just being nice.

UPDATE!!! Suspension just showed up today!!! will be posting pics when i pick it up tomorrow!!! unfortunally i cant get into a bay until August the 6th... boo erns!!! but will post pics so u can see the set up for front and rear!

oh man that sucks you have to wait for Aug 6, I am getting ready to pick them up sometime this week or next. I was waiting to hear how they ride. Anyway, I did some more research and found that these are pretty popular with RX8's in EU and AUS. Waitin to see the pics man, hope they good

Update!!!
 

Long waited pics... here they are.. fronts and rears.. phone pics.. sorry bout fuzziness. Sorry.. rears only i guess... i was in a rush at the performance shop.. im a car claim right now.. someone keyed my new hood and stole my jic exaust... fudgers!!!

They look exactly the same as the Stance GR+... Shock body, top mounts, spring pearch...everything.

@Q-Ball - thanks for the pics, they look like a pretty solid coilover. sucks to hear about the car man.... damn haters

@Top Gear- i did notice that the rear HSD coilovers don't have the rear shock bump like stance have. Do you know if the HSD need them?

No the rears don't need them.. The top part on the rears mounts on the side.. And it's fine about the exhaust.. Just ordered re-amemiya header and exotic speed r2 carbon exaust with race pipe.

UPDATE!!! Coilovers are in, and they ride great so far handling is much improved. However one problem arised when installing in the front though, the factory strut bar gets in the way of the dampening screw so a small notch had to be cut on both sides. Ive attached some before and after shots. :D

okay i just realized i posted bad pics, will post better ones later gotta wash my car first...damn weatherman says its gonna rain for this whole week, will post once i get sunny weather.

Haha, I was going to say.

so where did u guys order ur hsd coilovers?

do u have the link to the page?

Sure,

I got mine from JRP Racing...I believe they have an American Branch as well heres the link...http://www.jrponline.com/

Anyone have any suggestions about damping setting for new coilovers? I read somewhere that it should be on the softest setting for about a week....

Anyways here are some new pics hopefully better then the others...enjoy

Anyone have any more information on these. Everyone in the UK are raving about these coilovers for Mx5's, S-bodies, Skylines ect. just cant find any decent reviews for the .

No one that I know of has pulled the trigger on them yet. it's just easier to go with something else here that is heavily reviewed.

They are the same.

HSD in Korea makes STANCE GR.

Outside USA STANCE GR is HSD.

imput *almost* has it :)

Or vise versa.
