SakeBomb Garage | Introducing our new FPSpört Ohlins DFV Coilovers!

We are proud to introduce our new FPSpört Suspension Kit for the S2000! We developed this kit as an alternative to revalving the standard S2000 DFVs, and features an optimized valving curve, specially selected 11kg/mm front and rear spring rates, as well as custom billet aluminum lower mounting forks and billet aluminum top hats.

This is the Ultimate Street/Track crossover kit, ideally tuned for the S2000 with pricing which saves hundreds of dollars over a revalved DFV kit with replacement Springs.

Our Special Introductory Price is available only for a this initial production run, while supplies last!

Excerpt from our Product Page:

Since its introduction, the Öhlins DFV line has revolutionized coilovers, and as a result, no longer are customers forced to choose between performance and ride quality. The Öhlins DFV valving design made it possible to have a truly track worthy damper that was also not only livable, but actually comfortable on the street, without sacrifice to performance driving. As suspension engineers, the one thing that always frustrated us was being forced into the mold of a standard off the shelf suspension settings. The vast majority of our Ohlins customers ultimately decide to purchase new springs for their DFVs, and we designed this SBG Exclusive suspension kit around the most popular settings amongst our customers, and included optimized valving to accept a wide range of performance street and track worthy spring rates. We include stronger and lighter aluminum lower mounting forks and custom top hats with teflon lines spherical bearings. The optimized valving curves offer much improved ride quality over the standard DFV kit, and elevated performance out of the box. For roughly the cost of a DFV kit and replacement springs, this kit is a no-brainer for any S2000 driver!

Product Features:

- Custom Spec 11kg/mm Front 11kg/mm Rear Springs Included
- Custom Valving - Offers greatly improved handling and comfort over the standard DFV kit while providing wide spring rate options
- Custom Billet 6061 Aluminum Lower Mounting Forks (stronger and lighter)
- Custom Billet 6061 Aluminum Top Hats with Spherical Bearings

Optimized Springs and Valving

While no two drivers or cars are the same, the vast majority of our customers choose to max out the the standard Ohlins valving on their DFV kits with custom spring rates. The FPSport kit utilizes custom valving designed for our higher square-spring-rate setup, with 11kg/mm front 11kg/mm rear springs. The result is an overall improvement in both traction and ride quality, with the ability to swap springs in a wider and more useable range without revalving (down to 9kg/mm and able to push 13-14kg/mm for track use). Geared towards square tire setups, we built this kit around s2000's prepped for performance as opposed to an s2000 with stock sway bars and tires. The valving curve is carefully balanced for comfort and performance driving, making this kit some of the best crossover use suspension available in this price range. We've increased the spring rate range that the valving can handle in order to allow more aggressive track oriented rates to be used (without the need for a re-valve), all without sacrificing comfort. At a cost comparable to a standard DFV kit with replacement springs, we feel that this setup hits a sweet spot for a modified s2000!

Aren't the out of box top hats from Ohlins already billet? Why both changing those? Only seems like it would make this package more expensive for no gain.

Seems kind of hard to believe the lower aluminum mounts would be stronger than the steel ones?
Just a friendly tip from a Swedish speaking person, those Spört and Spëc names sound and look ridiculous.

The standard S2000 top hats used to be billet originally, but are stamped sheet aluminum now.

The FPSport is actually a completely custom kit, and doesn't share components with the vanilla S2000 Ohlins DFV. These are completely custom inside and out, not re-worked S2000 kits. Specifically this setup is built around a more performance oriented 11/11 spring rate and are custom valved to suite. 11KG Front / 11KG Rear valving allows more room for upgrading spring rates as well without revalving, but includes spring rates out of the box that are a perfect balance for dual duty street/track use. We recommend a large front sway bar if you're running square tires to maximize the performance of this setup.

Another big benefit we glossed over is that it allows you drop the rear almost 2 inches in the rear even while maintaining proper preload values. This is about an inch more than the normal S2000 Ohlins kit is capable of. This particular setup eliminates the need for our low-profile billet lower forks.

Basically this is a bespoke higher spec Ohlins DFV kit, that we tuned for what we consider to be a sweet spot for performance oriented setups, while keeping comfort and affordability in the forefront of our design considerations.

Happy to help and thank you for the order!

For those interested, we're beginning to take pre-orders for the next batch of 10x FPSport kits. We have components incoming now, and are gearing back up for Sport round two. The last batch sold out in a few days, and with all of the messages we've been getting recently this next round may sell out before the parts actually arrive at SBG from Sweden.

If you're interested please PM or email us info@sakebombgarage.com
