I can’t say enough good things about this set of coilovers. They’ve been on the car for a little under 8K miles and have seen 10 track days during that time. On the track, they are so balanced and helped me get some of the fastest times for almost all tracks with the F8x platform. On the street, I never noticed any noise at all (I was running the full Akra Evo however) and never had any complaints from passengers about the ride quality. It felt as if it made the rear end much more planted and I would never have issues putting traction down. To me, these are a huge upgrade over stock for anyone, but especially if you occasionally track your car, I think you will be incredibly happy. These are in great shape. I wouldn’t let the track use discourage you at all. AST makes a solid product and the new owner will enjoy these for many miles to come.

Price: $3,000

I had some time to drive the car with the stock adjustable suspension and it made me really appreciate these coilovers. On the street at their softest setting, these feel identical to the sport setting on the stock suspension, yet put the power down much better and eat any bumps in the road with ease and do not give you that floaty or loss of control feeling over severe dips. This would be a perfect setup for someone who tracks their car, but also still drives it on the street and wants to retain some comfort. The track performance speaks for itself by the lap times it was able to put down. Let's make a deal if you're looking for a new suspension setup for your car.

Are these able to be used with 3 bolt systems like the GC’s? They don’t appear to be but wanted to ask.

Yes you can, you would just need to buy/provide the 3 bolt systems.

Sorry. Replied to your DM before I saw this. This makes sense. You can ignore my message.

The kit can be converted to a 3 bolt. Camber plates are easy to sell, so just need your new set of 3 bolts and I would sell the 5 bolts here. Can deduct the cost of camber plates from the price no problem if I can keep the 5 bolts to sell.

Save yourself some cash over a more expensive JRZ/Moton kit and get the same results. Some of the fastest lap times are being set with members running the AST kit. From slicks to street tires, it completely changes the cars handling and balance.

These blow KW’s and other kits out of the water. Bump for a big mod that will change the car and last the life of the car
