Default IS-F Ohlins Road and Track Specific Coilover group buy

Well after 4 years we are finally ready to release this product. After hours of testing, waiting on Sweden for parts and going through a lot of back and forth we finally have all the parts and pieces to make this happen.
Here are the latest pictures from our final spec test set.

Here are the pictures installed.

We need 10 people interested and we can offer an additional 10% off our normal price on these.

This is a post from our other listing with pictures of the shocks as they come to us and the changes specific to the F.

Earning bragging rights for its balanced package of sport and luxury, the Lexus IS sedans get the kids to school on the highway, and get the competition schooled at the raceway. Raced in Touring Car from the UK to Japan, the Öhlins Road&Track suspension provides comfort and control for a full car and a full throttle.
This balanced suspension package provides racetrack performance with street comfort, and features conventional shocks both front and rear. Each front shock includes top mount, height adjustor, preload adjustor, length adjustor (15mm lower than stock), single bleed adjustor, model-specific spring rates, and dust covers.
The rear Öhlins shocks each feature a single-bleed adjuster, preload adjuster (approximately 15mm lower than stock), properly rated coil spring, dust cover, and a top mount, as applicable. Both front and rear components have Dual-Flow Valves (DFV) and are light weight, corrosion resistant, fully rebuildable for a lifetime of service, and come with a two-year limited warranty. RWD only.
Specs:
-IS-F Spring rates FR/RR 16K/12K (KG/mm)
-Completely re-valved to FIGS Specs.
-Swift springs front and rear.
-Aluminum anodized bodies, ride height independantly adjustable of spring preload.
-Front Upper Hats included with rubber bushings.
-Rear Shocks include compete upper hat replacements
-Single adjustment for damping compression and rebound.
-Dual-Flow Valving for performance and comfort.
-Spanner wrenches and hardware included.
-Saves about 20lbs over stock components.
-Ride Height adjustment range 0.1"-1.75"

Here are the pics of the actual kit you will get vs pictures of a kit that is a much higher end product.

Group buy pricing:
Normal retail will be $3499 and we will include shipping in the cont. US. International shipping available but must be quoted.
With 10 people ordering we will discount to $3149 and looking for a deposit of 50%
It will take 2-3 weeks to assembly completely.

If upgrading from BC BR with swift springs we might be able to reuse the rear upper hats and springs. I need to go back through our notes to see what length we need. This will save some money (around $480)
If interested add your name in a reply and we will open the cart once we get enough people.

hello, would I be able to run this set up along side my current set up (waiting for the snow to melt to install) which is the accuair sport set up, which "apparently" allows me to run factory or aftermarket dampers

Brandon I would need to have the airbag dimensions to see if there is room. All the spring lengths are set to the perch locations, we might be able to make it work.

Is there a time frame on the group buy? I'm considering a set of these or Penske's but have to wait till mid/end of next month before deciding.

Either way, it's nice to see an Ohlins options pop up for the F since I've used them on past rides with great results.

I would usually let it go for a month or until we get 10 people interested.

bump. these coils surpass all of our options (albeit Penskes are a superior track coilover, but cost a pretty penny).

When adding your name in the hat, please reply with the list quoted and your name added. That helps us out a great deal.

Can you assure me that there will be no clunking / clicking / groaning or any such suspension noises caused by the installation of the Ohlins (in other words, these coilovers will be as quiet as the original suspension)?

We are using all rubber mounts at this time so there should be no sounds associated with the coilovers.
