New Coilovers for MR2!! Install, Impression and Setting!!

[@strifu808]

Wow this was super educational. Gotta love this channel and your dedication, criminally underrated. I’m always looking for your updates both here and IG, we’re blessed by the gods of mountain pass thank you thank you.

[@dannyDC2]

Should have got MaxPPeeding

[@TougeTime]

I always drive at Maximum peeding

[@Deanotorious]

Awesome! Your initial driving impressions are exactly the same as mine when I installed new ridetech shocks on my C4. Less brake dive and oscillation after bumps. Clearly my old shocks were blown as well lol.

[@TougeTime]

Ya the dive difference is really big compared to my old setup

[@stephenjones8723]

Exciting stuff, new coilovers rock, Id expect your times at the AutoX should drop a 1/2 sec or more due to better damping and traction. RIP it up !!

[@TougeTime]

Haha ive been hopping and skipping the whole time

[@JoshVu]

Keen to see how this goes at the track bro!

[@TougeTime]

Same haha

[@hankschrader3085]

13:30: my 2zz mr2 makes that exact same hissing sound from then intake when I shut the car off. I thought it was something wrong with mine but yours does the same thing.

[@GripHunter]

I was not sure if buy Miata or MRS, now i think this is the way :) that car is absolutely insane... i just found your channel, and i am motivated to do the same 2ZZ :)

[@matthewyang2792]

Mr-s is definitely superior, however aftermarket support is weak.

[@AlexTrull]

Excellent presentation man. Thank you for all your work on these videos.

[@karlcarrington9548]

These vids are great I’m looking to do a k20 mr2 roadster swap and there hasn’t been no recent videos for this car in a few years. Keep them coming! 👍

[@ovidiscool]

those frequencies are serious 2.8f 3.3r. might need a bigger rear tire on track

[@carburgerlaa]

@15:50 is straight fire. Car clearly handles a tonne better. Excited to see how it goes at AutoX now.

[@willmoua1]

Nice! I love my koni/ground control setup for the civic, f400#, r450#. Even with the extended top hats, I feel the system lacking. Was going to try AMR coilovers this race season, but might look into these S3 coilovers instead!

[@TougeTime]

I used that setup in 24hrs lemons with the EK hatch. Ya they would be good for street but a little lacking.

[@dephataznboi]

Thanks for explaining everything, I appreciate the part where you talk about the rebound.

[@onseki1774]

I contacted S3 and they recommended me 10k front 8k rear for a daily driver ek civic, I thought those rates were a little crazy and I didn't reply, but after watching this I actually think those rates would be just fine on mostly soft dampers. They know Hondas better than I do, I should have trusted them a bit more.

[@TougeTime]

Ya i have civic friends running 12k with other damper No issue as well. Pretty common

[@PlaneTMRS]

Great Video. Pretty cool seeing the actual difference from the dampening adjustments! But there is one Thing Im curious about: Would you have to choose spring Rates depending on tire Setup? So would you Run a different spring rate with a square or a staggered Setup?

[@TougeTime]

I am 205 square right Now. Will probably go 225 rear for track

[@PlaneTMRS]

@@TougeTime so 205 front, 225 rear? i was thinking about upgrading from standart tire size. if I want to run 195 front, but cant get the r888rs as 215 do u think running 225 rear is to much?

[@TougeTime]

@@PlaneTMRS ill be 225-255/245

[@PlaneTMRS]

@@TougeTime alright, thanks For the reply

[@KrismanX]

I'm really excited to see how these perform on the track for you!

[@latuba2478]

Street/daily duties comfort?

[@vdtogt]

Im always happy with your videos. Is there any chance you can fix the mic a little? Lots of camera handling noise. Just a suggestion, I will like your vids anyway.

[@TougeTime]

I turned up the treble to hear me talk in car as the car is so boomy. My lav mic broke lol

@@vdtogt ye

[@noceilingsmotorsports]

Your suspension setup is just like my camry haha even the placement of the brake lines in the fender well is similar.

[@TougeTime]

Ya i think most MacPherson toyota is similar lol

[@tomaszicha9191]

one question because we are fellow 2zz mr2 owners. how the carbon fiber hood affect handling of the car? if its too light it became trouble and you must use downforce to your odds. i try to make car with only functional stuff not for looks but still streetable because daily driven:) big fan of techno pro spirit hellmachine mr2:)

[@rodfam9810]

Great video man! Thank you soo much.

[@WcDiu]

12k spring with fat rear sway bar you're def going to need stagger setup

[@RichardM479]

great video, looking into these for my crx

[@longbowdt]

Thank you. I put stock in your opinions, and use them to help guide me on my journey into the world of the MR2 Spyder. (I need all the help I can get, so...)

[@DelinquentDJ]

7k/12k springs seems interesting, with it being mid and not rear engine Id expect more of a 1-3k difference

[@ddsheep]

Nice review. want to upgrade my kw setup with harder swift spring for trackday. Anyway what's alignment spec you end up getting and with which sway bars? thanks

[@HaruADVAN]

May look at getting a similar set of coilovers tbh, my MR2 needs it. Great vid tho!

[@lukeroberts5770]

Inciteful video...do you know if these are available in the UK?

[@coreyrokowski9706]

What do you think of BC Racing - BR Type coilovers? How would they compare to the S3's (I dont know how much the S3's go for so they could be in completely different classes)

[@coreyrokowski9706]

Sounds like your car is pretty dialed in since you keep killin the autocross game. We gonna get a updated parts list video soon or have i missed one recently? Thx in advance :D

[@PM_DraKKar]

Damn those look hella nice, you said +3 and +6 for the dampers is this in terms of how many clicks from 0? and what is the adjustable range for these? Trying to compare to the BC DS Series coils which has a range of 0-32 clicks, running 7k fronts 10k rear

[@TougeTime]

Yes from 0

[@14energy]

Please put link for the product

[@rustler1999929]

Can You make a update video on s2000? some driving and smashing that 9000 V T E C ! lol

[@anxdmeme4208]

Do you use the stock wheel alignment?

[@RennWickam]

Any info on pricing? I’ve been interested in buying an Frog and I wanted to know how expensive some of the stuff can get

[@FredaricoIsCooL]

Just picked up a frog myself, also wanting info on these coilovers.

[@stevenbitecofer9698]

I seemed to hear some creaking from the chassis at slow speeds when in the parking lot. Did the car do that before the coilover change too? I was wondering if it might be from the pillowball mounts transferring more noise. I cannot imagine running 7/12. I currently run 5/7 on my 2ZZ Spyder but yours looked good on the curvy road at the end. I will be interested to hear your impressions when you can do autoX and track it again.

[@TougeTime]

I have spherical endlinks and poly bushings. This setup isn't new. I got it from TPS and from the guys running nurburgring. Many of my friends run 12-14k in hondas and 20k s2000. Lol

[@stevenbitecofer9698]

@@TougeTime I am not saying you cannot run springs that stiff. I know some guys run incredibly stiff springs on the street. I am saying that I could not imagine doing it and be comfortable performance driving on roads and streets. Tracks are one thing but on the street, I need some compliance in the suspension to deal with the unforeseen. It looks like you got it adjusted to a place where it is comfortable for you but my body is a lot older than yours. LOL

[@TougeTime]

@@stevenbitecofer9698 ah lol. Ya this was a lot milder than i thought. Car feels really nice. I think the sound you were hearing might be the LSD

[@AlanRamirez-mi6sw]

Any info on where can we purchase same coilover setup

[@TougeTime]

Instagram @s3suspension

[@Rodrizzzy]

what was the creacking/clunk when you were in the parking lot? we installed coils on my friends 86 and his had that noise. i wonder if it just something normal when having coils installed

[@TougeTime]

My 1.5way diff

[@johnnyloveee]

How... how did all of this happen? Like how does one get sponsored ? Does winning auto X attribute to this? Or is it just straight your social media’s having a following? Or just you being a good driver?

[@rustycheeeseburgers]

Have you tried the midship garage coilovers?

[@trod-s2k]

If you haven't figured it out yet, you're gonna need helper/tenders because without you'll have no sprung droop.

[@TomoReso]

Any update? Did you track it, do they last?

[@xiv7768]

The check scene scared the shit out of me and spilled bread crumbs all over my desks

[@TougeTime]

Hahaha

[@bhautobacs]

+3 +6 from all stiff?

[@strifu808]

What engine oil do you recommend?? I’m getting a 2zz soon ;( my bank account is crying

[@vltruan]

What is the warranty on these? How are they holding up?

[@casualkarting6492]

When you say you have hit 1.5Gs sustained, are you still using the 1zz oil pan? I just put one in my car and wonder how effective it is.

[@trod-s2k]

Yeah not true. I've hit 1.5g peak in rare situations on AR-1s with aero, with much larger wheels and tires. I am using the stock oiling system on the 1ZZ and don't have issues, but I'm also not caring if it blows up.

[@tornikekik]

Happy with S3 ?

[@ringmeisterjay]

Where can we buy these? Googled and can't find them

[@supers0nic77]

What rear view mirror you have there?

[@el_croc311]

Finna get a mr2 now

[@rolldog82]

Off the topic question k20 vs k24 which is better on mr2 spyder?

[@alexcrossland1195]

2zz is the way, I’ve heard k series tend to throw the balance a bit to far backwards in the car. But if I were to choose between k20 vs k24 I’d say a high revving k20 will be better for the car than a higher power k24

[@TougeTime]

It doesn't throw it off much.

[@feral4mr2]

Are you still running these spring rates? Sway bars?

[@TougeTime]

Yes

[@feral4mr2]

@@TougeTime ok. Obviously still happy with them. Are you running sway bars at all? Cheers for fast reply. 🙂

[@TougeTime]

Yes. Nothing has changed suspension component wise since this video

[@LLbrker]

You should relocate your battery to right front ! Is that allowed in your autocross class ? What class do you run in ?

[@TougeTime]

Open class and xsb

[@samster978]

are you still using the same settings now for track?

Ap2v1 has all seasons. Amazon dashcam/reverse cam

I want to ask the price but tbh I know it’s probably an investment and you should never cheap out lol

It depends what you want. These are custom spring rate. Message s3 on Instagram u are interested!

Haha i was grocery shopping after actually

[@sanchoMDB]

Touge Time lmao I was gonna say. This makes me excited to install mine once I get a spare day. Made me a little worried when you said your buddy had problems with the fortunes.

[@TougeTime]

@@sanchoMDB they fixed the issue now but the fortune auto were really bad. Stud was too big for hole lol. And the bottom mount was attached upside down.

Touge Time phwew haha. I did opt for the swift upgrade so I’m pretty excited to see the ride with them installed. My car does have the dreaded divorced spring in the rear so it’ll be a bit fiddley should be awesome.

You know, you should be wearing your mask in the garage as well. Very important. Maybe even wear it in the shower and when you go to bed. Just in case.
