The Official ULTIMO Coilover Thread

[Brake Weight]

yes, why?

Well, to me, it would be a given. That altering ride height warrants an alignment. But with people asking what all they need to install, it was never mentioned. That's why, is all.

Valid point

that's because all of the sixteen year olds buying the coils spend their allowance on them, with no monies left for alignment :p

in all seriousness, i get alignments always with new suspension or tires. definitely go to a specialty shop though, make sure they're low friendly.

[Schümey]

I hope it comes over here, too!
Nice low for nice price

@Murder1.8
Did you removed something?

I added that to my comments to clear up the issue.

Can anybody compare these to FK Streetlines? I just filled my tires to 40 psi which helps a little bit but they are still pretty bouncy.

If you really would like them, I'm sure you could work out a deal with Raceland. Their customer service is great. Shipping may be a killer though.

Getting one won't be the problem, the problem is the TÜV
Normal Racelands are available over here, so maybe the Ultimos someday too...

Oh okay. I had to use google to figure out what the hell TÜV was.

Sell them. I'm sure you can find a buyer real quick. Only took me 30 min with my old rokkors and I had a waiting list for buyers if he fell threw

At the lowest I was rubbing the sway bar real bad, so I ordered the hotchkis sway kit.

Read my comments/questions section. If you still have a question feel free to pm me.

[AntParmenter]

It was brought to my attention that the Raceland site states this craziness...

"This product is intended to be used only in race cars and or show vehicles. The Raceland coil over kit is not to be installed in vehicles driven on public roads."

I asked the company about it and this is what they sent back to me.

Sorry for the confusion, you can use your car for everyday driving with the coilover kit installed...we had to put that disclaimer on the item for liability reasons - not for functionality in any way. Hope this helps with your decision.

Sincerely,
Raceland USA

[bl33su]

WOULD anyone be willing to help send a kit to Australia?

Raceland USA does will not sell to us

Well I'd be willing to help out but the shipping would probably be more than the actual product. If you are actually still interested PM me and we'll talk.
