Product Description
The Buddy Club
Racing Spec Damper system was developed based on the data collected from both
actual racecars and the high-performance streetcar. Depending on different
applications, adequate spring rates, damping force adjustment, and enough
damping stroke were all put into consideration to create the one of the best
available and balanced suspension systems for the drifting and circuit
enthusiasts alike.
Because strut type
suspension absorbs the shock directly from the road, it requires a high strength
design. Buddy Club utilizes the inverted shock design for its high durability.
The inverted shock tubes are manufactured with corrosion free chrome plated
steel.
15 Way Compression /
Rebound Adjustment
15 different settings are possible with just a simple click on a knob. Inverted
shocks have the adjustment knob on the top of the shaft. The others have the
knobs at the bottom of the shell case. The basic compression (softest setting)
offers excellent comfort for daily street use of the suspension kit. About
4kg/mm spring rate increase is expected with the damping force set to all the
stiffest setting.
Pillow Ball Upper
Mounts
Steering response will be dramatically improved by adding upper pillow ball
mounts instead of the factory rubber bushing. Aluminum upper mounts will let you
adjust the camber on several strut type suspension kits.
Original Springs
High quality original springs are used on all of our suspension kits. A special
coating gives extra protection against any corrosion caused by the everyday
driving.
Bracket Adjustable
Buddy Club has eliminated the need for helper springs by using the adjustable
bracket system. A Super low ride-height is possible without having any free play
of the springs. One complete turn of the adjusting bracket will lower the
ride-height approximately 2mm. The shell case finish is an off black coating to
prevent corrosion and offer a high quality feel.
Mono Tube Design
Shell Case
All Racing Spec Damper uses the mono tube design shell case instead of an
inferior ordinary cartridge type. Strut type application uses a 36mm piston and
wishbone type uses an extremely large 46mm piston for greater control of the
damping force.
Spring Seat, Lock
Seat
This aluminum material spring seat / lock seat will let you adjust the height
2mm for every one full complete turn. By using the pre-loadable adjusting
bracket it is now possible to change the spring pre-load without the vehicle
height.
Spring Rating:
Front: 9 kg/mm
Rear: 8 kg/mm
Fits:
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII 03-05 MR, GSR, RS
