Description

Aragosta 8-16K/8-16K Type SS 2 Way Suspension Kit with Pillowball Upper Mounts for R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R

The Aragosta Type SS Coilover stands as the pinnacle of Aragosta’s coilover lineup, meticulously designed to excel in track-focused applications. These coilovers boast a diverse selection of custom spring rate options, allowing drivers to tailor their suspension precisely to their needs. The Type SS comes equipped with a 2-way remote reservoir system, effectively mitigating damper oil heat soak, and features independently adjustable compression and rebound settings, providing the ultimate control over the suspension dynamics.

The Ultimate in Smooth Performance

At the core of the Aragosta Type SS Coilover lies an ultra-lightweight, high-pressure forged aluminum cylinder, boasting advanced film treatment and Kashima coating. This special treatment, which involves impregnating molybdenum, results in astounding lubricity for the cylinder itself. The Type SS excels in reducing friction and enhancing durability, far exceeding the capabilities of conventional hard alumite coatings. As a result, these coilovers deliver impeccable linearity, smoothness, and remarkable traction abilities at the highest level of performance.

High-Precision Machining with the Highest Priority on Performance

Aragosta takes pride in the precision processing of the cylinder, achieving surface roughness as low as 0.2 micron and 2/10000 mm for both aluminum and steel cylinders. Additionally, advanced honing treatments are performed to enhance the surface accuracy and roundness inside the cylinder, meeting the most demanding specifications. Such meticulous processing is an extraordinary feat among damper manufacturers, solidifying the Type SS coilovers’ position as a true engineering marvel.

Superior Finishing Technology

The Type SS coilovers feature a steel cylinder/outer case coated with cationic electrodeposition coating, renowned for its exceptional rust prevention, impact resistance, and overall durability. This advanced coating technique ensures full electrodeposition coverage, providing comprehensive protection to every thread corner and extending the coilovers’ longevity while preserving peak performance.

Equipped with High-Performance Spring as Standard

The Type SS coilovers come standard with rana springs, embodying the epitome of series-wound spring design. Beyond their exceptional quality and durability, the linear characteristics of these springs contribute to maximizing the overall damper performance.

Sharpened Internal Structure

To enhance the Type SS coilovers’ exceptional performance, Aragosta equips them with precision damper pistons and needles, capable of finely controlling damping characteristics even at extremely low speeds. This broad range of adjustability, spanning from comfort-oriented settings to sporty responses, dramatically enhances traction performance. Moreover, the external damping force adjustment mechanism offers a clear characteristic change across the 20-step adjustment range, featuring a smooth and direct click feel for precision tuning tailored to any setting.

High Hardness, High Efficiency WPC Processing

The Type SS coilovers utilize inverted cartridge cylinders featuring precision shot peening, a superior technology known as WPC processing. This advancement significantly reduces the wear coefficient in cartridge cylinders with high sway resistance, thereby improving oil film retention in the sway part. Aragosta’s unwavering commitment to prioritizing performance even in concealed components solidifies their dedication to excellence.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
