Kits are matched to a specific chassis code. On some platforms they are also matched to drivetrain or factory suspension type. Confirm your model, year and variant before ordering. Examples in this range include:

• Nissan Silvia / 180SX / 200SX (S13, S14/S15) and Skyline (R32 GTS-T, R32 GT-R, R33/R34 GT-R)
• Subaru BRZ (ZC6/ZD8), Toyota 86 (ZN6) and GR86 (ZN8), plus Subaru WRX VA and STI GR, GV, VA
• Toyota Supra (JZA80), Chaser / Mark II (JZX90/JZX100), GR Corolla and Lexus GS (JZS160)
• Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5), Civic (FN2/FN/FK) and Jazz (GD, GK)
• Mitsubishi Evo X, Hyundai i30 N (PDe), Suzuki Swift (ZC33), Ford Focus RS and Renault Megane 3 RS (DZ / B9)
• BMW M2 (F87, G87), M3/M4 (G80, G81, G82, G83), M4 GTS (F82), M5 (F10, F90) and M240i (G42)
• MINI Cooper (R50, R53, R56, F55/F56), Audi A3/S3 (8V/8Y), Volkswagen Golf GTI/R (Mk7/Mk8) and Porsche 911 Carrera 2 (996)

Watch for these details in the product title. Some BMW M3/M4 kits are split by RWD and xDrive. Some MINI kits suit only non-DDC vehicles, meaning cars without factory adaptive dampers. Some kits are supplied without top mounts, while others come with pillow ball top mounts. Some Japanese-market kits assume JDM strut dimensions, so check these carefully on Australian-delivered cars.

Next, match the kit type to how the car is used:

• Single-adjustable street kits suit daily cars after sharper turn-in and a set ride height.
• Two-way and three-way kits separate bump and rebound control, which helps over kerbs and uneven surfaces.
• Remote-reservoir kits mainly add heat capacity for more consistent damping over long track sessions.
• Electronically adjustable kits and damper control modules let owners soften the setup for the commute.

Most installs are a bolt-in swap of the strut and spring assembly. Once the car is lowered, front camber often goes negative and rear geometry shifts. Camber plates, camber arms, toe arms or an alignment kit are often needed to bring things back into spec, and a wheel alignment afterwards is essential. Worn sway bar end links and bushings are usually replaced at the same time while everything is apart. Ride height and alignment are typically re-checked after a few hundred kilometres, once the springs have bedded in.

Installation by a professional is recommended. A suspension specialist or qualified mechanic will have spring compressors and the correct torque specs on hand.

Will coilovers fit my exact model and year?
Fitment varies by chassis code and sometimes by drivetrain or factory suspension type. Check the compatibility on the product page, and contact us if you are unsure about an Australian-delivered variant.

Do I need an alignment after fitting coilovers?
Yes. Ride height, camber and toe all change, so a wheel alignment is essential to bring the car back within spec and avoid uneven tyre wear.

Can I change ride height without changing spring preload?
On most kits, yes. Height adjusts at the lower bracket or perch independently of preload, within the range the kit allows.

How low can I go before it causes problems?
Going too low runs out of shock travel and upsets the suspension geometry. Most kits list a recommended height range, and staying inside it keeps the car driveable on Australian roads.
