Progress Technology Coilover Series 3 (FR: 350lbs / RR: 550lbs) - Honda Del Sol 93-97

Description

NOTE: Requires OEM steel top hats for installation.

What's new with CS3 V2 Coil-overs? More aggressive rebound damping, 12 linear rebound (RA) settings for easy tuning and an all-new progressive foam bump stop design.

Why consider CS3 Coil Over kit?

Less compromise. You can easily adjust the rebound damping to your preferred settings, and fine-tune the ride and suspension response. The dampers have 12 settings. The soft setting is very similar to our current CS2. The rebound settings have been developed with 12 linear steps, up to full rebound. The big rebound setting is over 50% more than the CS2 units. The compression has a modest increase as well. This means that the CS3 has our characteristic "sporty" ride on softer settings, and can be a real track rat, aggressive autocross or drag launch setup when running firmer springs with the rebound dialed way up.

This is a perfect system for street performance, track day and autocross enthusiasts, as well as project cars with engine swaps. These damping rates have been successfully used on the track with spring rates up to 650lbs and 800lbs/inch (F/R).

For the sake of comparison, typical OEM spring rates for these applications are approximately 220lbs/in front, and 110lbs/in rear. With the numerous Civic & Integra applications, there is a range of spring rates, and these CS3 systems are significant upgrades from your OEM or replacement-type OEM damper and spring calibrations.

Features:
- Lowering height 1.0" to 3.0"
- Choose from 14 spring rate combinations
- 12 progressive rebound damper settings
- Twin-tube design with deflective disc valving
- Stainless Steel threaded rear sleeves
- Unique CNC locking spring perches
- High Tensile cold-wound springs
- Includes two spanners & hardware

AUTOCROSS-TRACK & DRAG SPECIFIC
REAR HEAVY SETUPS (350/550)
These setups are much more aggressive. This calibration has more grip, and is intended for use with "track only" alignment settings and UHP sticky tires. If ride quality is a concern, don't go here because the stiffer springs make for an uncomfortable (and choppy) highway ride. This is a more balanced and LESS FORGIVING setup intended for enthusiast TRACK days and AUTOCROSS events. These combinations will also launch well for mild drag applications on DOT tires. Expect a HUGE improvement in handling capability. This would also be a great low-budget setup for new (road racing) drivers going to a (track) DRIVING SCHOOL or TRACK events.

These setups have faster chassis response, are less forgiving, and offer MAX GRIP in most cornering situations. The chassis balance will be very close to ideal, having minimal understeer with "track-only" alignment settings and real UHP tires. This is a BIG compromise in ride quality and will require more DRIVING SKILL to drive at the limit (on the track please!) NOT RECOMMENDED for wet/snow/poor weather and road conditions.
