If you're pretty sure you want them, you could help us gain momentum by adding your name to the list.. If either you or Biggu commits, we'll at least be locked into the second discount tier

How long do we have until a decision must be made?

 

It doesn't matter how many sign up. It matters how many buy. There is often a significant difference.

 

Actually, everyone paid up on the last GB, so don't be pessimistic!

Well, its not super urgent right now as we are out of stock on some of the components, but we will be ready to ship in 2 weeks.

Discovered the TEIN CS I had rebuilt a year and a half ago has started leaking AGAIN!! Out with the TEIN in with the Penske. Just got the tune, USRS and AOS from RR Racing. Had the pleasure of hanging out with Rafi while he flashed my ECU. Let me just tell you he is a GREAT guy and an amazing engineer. Thanks for all the great things you are developing for the F community. BTW the tune is amazing!

The mention of Tein makes me cringe. Your experience mirrors mine. Never again.

Just need to see one thing happen this month and I will be in on this for sure.

 

I remember reading some of your posts which were very worrisome to say the least but was hoping for the best. I refuse to give them anymore of my business. I even told Rafi that if I had anymore issues with the TEINs I would be buying the Penskes. Well as I was installing my USRS I noticed the dreaded oil film running down the coil over I had rebuilt less then 2 years ago and it may have 4000 miles on it.

 

Thanks for info.. I'm doing a late April track day at Summit Point, WV, so I'll be ready to receive the shocks as soon as you can build 'em. Hopefully, I can get them installed before the event.

Rafi, would these be recommended for street and some autocross or would a Ohlins be a better setup for me? How often would you recommend these coil overs get maintenance done? any discount to buy them with out springs? (I already have Swift 16k/12k on my coils now I could transfer over.

 

If your Swift springs are 8-9" long, they should work fine and you can transfer them, we will simply credit you our cost on the springs.

These shocks are in another league compared to the Ohlins R&T, which are a relatively simple monotube that is built for street application only, and I don't believe you will find any professional race teams using them. Penske 7500 series shocks have a dual internal reservoir with head valve, and independent compression and rebound. These are the same shocks as used in the Pirelli World Challenge and Continental Sports Car racing series.

But, even thought they are used in racing, this does not mean they are harsh-- that depends on valving, and I am sure many of the owners of RRR/Penske setups that we have sold will attest that these coilovers are very comfortable.

I recommend changing shock fluid ever 2 years. This is not an absolute requirement, but if you do, these shocks will last a lifetime.

sounds good,

Count me in as long as we get enough people to make it $3250 or less. My springs are 8" long so I should be fine there.

I am interested too. I may need another 4-6 weeks.... Still trying to pay off a few other bills.

Rafi, when are you looking to close out this group buy?

 

Hopefully sooner than 4 weeks
I'd like to have mine installed before my 4/22 track day.

-Mike

 

Sorry, Mike. I forgot you has a track day coming up.

Rafi, would a deposit secure a spot in the group buy?
