Ohlins or nothing it seems...
Indeed. Which, not arguing that Ohlins are likely better given the four years of advancement that they've had, but really the inability to revalve them seems like it'd be pointless to swap springs then since these have already been "Muellerized". Not sure what benefit I would see from having them redo these if they can't revalve to match the spring rate, but I'm going to reply with all the information I have and see what they say about it. Unsure what additional improvements they can make though.
Edit: Hoping Muellerized can provide info on spring rates for these, but they may not. Previous owner had them on an 03 Evo8 GSR (Go on youtube for Fourced4cyl to find some videos) for track use which was almost completely stripped out, so may actually be a bit up the creek here to try to use these for the street.
Wtf 600$ discount? Lame. I paid full damn price :/
They are still awesome though...

Might be worth trying another rebuild outfit for parts if you need them bro. They're out there... You might actually be on point with what you have. There's a good chance they're sprung and tuned 50/50.
LOL, Muellerized Ohlin DFV's for $2500 bones!
Well, not sure when the 600 off went into effect, so you may have it, you may not. Would still put it at what, 3200ish to be done? That's just out of my price range.Quote:

Hopefully they'll be close enough I won't even need to send them in, but we'll have to wait and see. I have already had a couple other 3S owners I know comment about being willing to buy these off of me if they're too stiff because they want the "Because racecar" feel. Again, all will depend on what Muellerized can dig up in the files and how far off that might be from my intended goals. If my car were running, I could just bolt them on and try them out and see if I like it as is, but as the rebuild likely won't be done until late spring/early summer..Quote:

Damn... Everything on SCE Evo adapters is down right now. AST 5000 series are $2500 :shocked: Crazy! Guess right after new years is a good time to buy! I just checked pricing on Moton and JRZ's and they appear to be discounted as well. Good stuff!
Last May I was told i got some of the last adapters. Lets hope he made another batch.
From the phone.
Of course. Even for now speaking in generalities, nothing shared that wasn't provided to me without having to sign an NDA. Once they find the information from last time, will probably have to sign an NDA before they will share them with me (if they will share them) even if I don't have them do any further work. I did tell them what I was looking for, so may just get a response from them that this is or isn't close to what my goals are. Hoping for good news, but we will see. At any rate, will likely still sell these and move up to the Ohlins in the next year or two anyhow.Quote:

Small update: SCE adapters arrived. still haven't heard back from Muellerized. Going to call them Monday and find out where that stands. At this point kinda thinking I may just say damn the torpedoes and bolt them on and see how I like them before getting them redone.
