Rx8 R-Magic Ohlins Coilovers
Category: Steering & Suspension
Price: $2000
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series I
Location (US State/Canada/Int): CA
Item Condition: Used
Please do your research, Ohlin's are a well known and reputable suspension company. R-Magic is also well known in Japan. These are ultra-rare coilovers, probably because they are pricey but also because they are R-Magic.
I also fished out my hyper rev mag, which if you aren't familiar is a JDM magazine focused on a single vehicle. R-Magic is featured along with a lot of other Japanese tuner shops. The coilovers are pictured along with the spring rates. I can't guarantee these spring rates though since it's my understanding that PSI balanced the set to all be the same (research coilovers and you will learn that some brands have less consistent rates among a set).
Note for Mods. I posted these earlier but after delay of receiving the invoice i was unable to edit original. Please delete original FS thread.
Edit: Price Drop to 2500

Well its not a sticker but I can't honestly say what R-Magic did to them, unfortunately I can't read Japanese. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable can enlighten us as to what tuning shops generally do to coilovers.

My guess, öhlins usally build shocks on order from race teams, race shops etc.. That is öhlins core business. This road and track öhlins is something new and seperated from the core business. So what you have is probably r magics specially ordered öhlins. If that is correct then it is race shocks for racing compared to road and track öhlins.

I believe they are similar but not sure if they are the same generation. I'm also not sure what changes R-Magic made to the setup. My assumption is that they changed the spring rates and valving.
Dropped price to 2,000 btw.
