I've had these coils sitting in my bedroom since the beginning of the summer. A few months after I got them I also bought an S2000 to replace my Nissan. My Honda needs a roof pretty severely and as time goes on I find myself caring more and more for the S2000 over the S13. Thus, it's time to separate with these so that I can do some much-needed maintenance on my S2k.

Brand new in box Powertrix Race/Track Coilovers for the S13 - these retail at $1250, I'm only asking for $1000.

They were originally purchased by a friend of mine for an S14. A few weeks later he sold his car without installing them, and to keep him from having to take a hit on a re-stocking fee I bought them for my S13. We shipped the rears back to Powertrix in CA and had them rebuilt with a shock body for an S13. They also fitted fork-style mounts for use with aluminum Z32 rear-uprights.

The coils have never been installed and are in brand new condition. The box wouldn't even be open if I didn't have to look at them and gawk when they first came in.

Quoted from the Powertrix website:
The RT Coilovers feature a robust Race grade 45mm mono tube strut piston that is valved for the serious competitor and features aluminum pillow ball upper mounts to transfer more suspension energy through the strut piston shaft increasing the efficiency of the overall suspension duty. Full forged steel threaded shock bodies for independent ride height and spring preload adjustability and 13k/11k linear springs make the RT Coilover System an "All Business" tool for Auto crossing and Road/Track Racing. Designed for the true performance enthusiast looking for the extra edge during track time, it is also just civil enough to run on the street on a daily basis.

Features List:
» Re-buildable/Replaceable Premium mono-tube forge steel strut Body
» Pillow ball upper mount adjustable camber plates
» Race Grade oversized strut piston
» 15 way strut damper adjustments
» Independent Ride height and Spring Preload adjustability, 8kg/mm front and 6kg/mm rear

Located in eastern North Carolina. Willing to meet if you're within the state, willing to ship if you're not. Offers welcomed, the worst I can say is no.

Can also include aluminum uprights if needed. Feel free to PM for more info.

One part says 13kg/mm 11kg/mm spring rates and below that it says 8/6, which are the actual rates?

Just to clarify, standard rear lower mounts are NOT included, right?

Good price, GLWS!

Sorry, I believe those are referring to pre-load maximums. As in an extra 8k for the front springs and another 6 for the back.

Here's the link (http://www.powertrix.com/s13suspension.htm) to their S13 page, where the info came from.
And here's the link (http://www.powertrix.com/z32coils.htm) to their Z32 page, where it's listed correctly (just to support my hypothesis in case anyone wonders where it came from.)

Sadly I don't have the original lower mounts, so I can't include them. Honestly though, if the buyer meets my asking price I'll throw in the Z32 uprights for free.

Cheers, and thanks for pointing out the typo!
