Similar to our Competition Coilovers in Features and our Pro Coilovers in Appearance, the Y33 VIP spec coilover provides lots of performance and style at a reasonable price.
key features:
- Copper Plated hardware and gold coated spring
- Front lower mount welds to OEM spindle & last 2 inches of the damper tube for maximum strength
- Aggressive damping range with fast adjust:
- Allows you to do 32 clicks of damping change in just 10 clicks!
- Pillow ball upper mount on front AND REAR!
- Replaceable shock & customizable spring available to special order in custom Kg (even numbers only) .
- Billet T6061 lightweight aluminum Rear Lower mount with urethane bushing.
- All aluminum components are hard anodized
- High rigidity/High precision piston rod design exceeds racing standards
- Adjustable to super low ride height
- Full thread tap piston and locking collar allows vehicle height to be adjusted independent of the spring preload.
- 2 collar wrenches are included.
- Light weight T6061 aluminum spring perch and locking collar designed to bear the weight of vehicle
- Spring upper perch provides independance between the spring and the pillowball.
The Y33 pre packaged spring rates are 10KG F 8KG R
If you want, you can go +/- 2 KG on the out of the box damper.
Additional springs can be purchased for $60/pair
One off spring orders are black color only, even numbers only up to 22 KG
Additional dampers are $100, you can special order a damper to match a spring that is out of the original dampers range.
But spec on paper is not the whole story, before you go special ordering you should probably try it as-is, see how it feels to you, and your individual situation and go from there.
Lifetime manufacturers defect warranty
100% new dampers are $100 ea. Which is cheaper than a rebuild where you get back some used parts and new seals. This system is designed to reduce your downtime if you should ever have a problem and it saves labor time and shipping costs.
No one ever buys replacement dampers from us unless they crash. They are really reliable. However if you choose to under/over spring the damper too much with say air bags, you can expect to limit the life of the damper.
Heres a photoshoot of the Y33 production coilovers in stock now.

prototype car test fit pix:
this application demands a weld on type front lower mount
camber was set in the front with the adjustable top plate
as you can see by the exposed threads there is way more room to lower the car onto the frame!
camber and toe in the rear are related on this car so those aftermarket parts must be installed together
we set the height to get over speed bumps with minimal exhaust scraping and to be no problem in driveways and around town
to go lower I would recommend redoing the exhaust system for clearance after installing our sub frame risers
pretty conservative here but you can make it drag on the ground if you want.
the car rides stiff which is needed while maintaining a low ride height which may be a bit jarring for luxury tastes at speeds below 30MPH but the significant increase in suspension performance is welcomed when cruising smoothly and confidently on MAX coilovers at higher speeds.
