Rally-raid Jimny (G'Luck Racing)

Nice shocks

Good to see something different than the usual cheap Rough Country or Procomp suspension

How much did you have to pay for these coilovers ?
Are you doing the valving of the shocks yourself, or did Filthy Motorsports do that for you ?

Why go for 2.5 shocks, and not 2.0


Keep us updated

Ben from Filthy is calculating the valving and it is done by Kings when making shocks. Ben has a reputation of making the shocks settings spot on from first try So I've just provided him with values, measurements and some photos videos of racing that I'll be participating in.

4 coilovers with 4 bumpstops costed $3775 US. Plus it will be about 650 for delivery and up to $1000 of customs fee (not sure exactly, this is the first time I'll be doing all this papers myself).
Pretty much money here, especially after ruble has become two time cheaper against the dollar

Luckily I'm not married and can spend my salary as I want too

P.S. Have chosen 2.5" just not to buy the cheapest solution, one of the rules I try to follow. Should be no overkill like going 3.0" or higher (and it would be hard to fit it), but still more reliable then 2.0".

That's quite a lot of money. But we all know that quality has it's price And King is one of the top brands

Too bad you so far away from Denmark. Would be great to see your Jimny IRL.. Perhaps you're doing the Breslau rally one day?

I can see your point with the 2.5's. Makes good sense

I like, I like alot

Finally have received my suspension, will try to get it installed next week (unfortunately my mechanics have left for the race with their primary drivers, winners of World Cup last year ).

Luckily customs didn't take their fee, so I've saved about $1000 and the suspension became not so expensive

First race on new suspesnion/engine
