Default POWERTRIX Coilovers - 3 weeks driven..

Wanted a coilover system for when my wheels come in so after speaking with a few of the board members I decided to give Powertrix the nod. Met up with the owner Charles Park in San Diego and he personally installed the damper system for me on a weekend!


POWERTRIX Sport Street Coilovers-





World Record Z32 (Stock turbo with 80 shot of NOS) 10.95@125.01MPH



Ichiba 20mm Spacer All Around (Cant rock the stock setup all "sunken in")



Flushness Shot



Drop is about -1.5"





Will be going lower some but will wait till the wheels come in to dial in the fitment..

Driven for a few weeks I can tell the suspension is stiffer but still has that OEM smoothness. Perhaps a bit more stable when going over bumps/transitions on the freeway. Unlike OEM, the car doesnt get all squirrelly when you go over bumps at speed. I havent pushed the car much as Im almost done with the stock Bridgestones but I can already tell that the car is able to charge turns with minimum body roll. I'm at a 3 setting on stiffness and have up to 15 for max stiffness. Ill try to go stiffer this weekend as some of the higher bumps cause some rubbing. Overall a very positive experience with these coilovers.

I believe he still running GB pricing and will eventually run an official GB soon. His handle is Charles@POWERTRIX
