Aragosta Type S Suspension Kit w/ Rubber Upper Mounts for GSE20 Lexus IS 250

The Aragosta Type S Coilover Suspension systems are meticulously engineered to deliver an optimal ride experience during spirited driving, encompassing winding back roads and competitive circuit driving alike. These coilovers are designed to provide balanced, linear handling and seamless traction, defining them as a hallmark of meticulous design. Their wide range of adjustability makes them an ideal choice for both daily driving and weekend warrior adventures, ensuring exceptional performance in almost any driving situation.

The Ultimate in Smooth Performance

• At the heart of the Type S Coilovers lies an ultra-lightweight, high-pressure forged aluminum cylinder treated with next-generation film treatment and Kashima coating. The special impregnation of molybdenum grants the cylinder remarkable lubricity, significantly reducing friction and enhancing durability, surpassing the performance of conventional hard alumite coatings. This advanced design empowers the coilovers to deliver exceptional linearity, smoothness, and traction ability at a high level.

High-Precision Machining with Performance as the Top Priority

• Aragosta is meticulous about the processing accuracy of the cylinder, achieving surface roughness levels of 0.2 microns and 2/10000 mm for both aluminum and steel cylinders. In addition, an advanced honing treatment is performed to enhance surface accuracy and roundness inside the cylinder, a rarity among damper manufacturers. This precision engineering showcases Aragosta’s commitment to achieving peak performance across all their coilovers.

Superior Finishing Technology

• The steel cylinder and outer case undergo cationic electrodeposition coating, known for its exceptional rust prevention, impact resistance, and durability. This meticulous coating process ensures uniform electrodeposition throughout the thread, providing maximum coverage and significantly extending the lifespan of the coilovers.

Equipped with High-Performance Spring as Standard

• All Aragosta Type S coilovers come standard with Rana springs, embodying the characteristics of an ideal series-wound spring. These springs not only exhibit high quality and durability but also contribute significantly to maximizing the overall damper performance.

Sharpened Internal Structure

• Supporting Aragosta’s exceptional performance are damper pistons and needles designed to control fine damping characteristics even at extremely low speeds, dramatically improving traction performance across a range from comfort-oriented settings to sporty maneuvers. The external damping force adjustment mechanism provides a clear characteristic change through its 20-step adjustment range, offering a smooth and direct click feel, ensuring responsiveness to any desired setting.

High Hardness, High Efficiency WPC Processing

• The inverted cartridge cylinder utilizes precision shot peening (WPC processing), the best technology for modifying metal surfaces. In cartridge cylinders with high sway resistance, the wear coefficient is significantly reduced, leading to a remarkable improvement in oil film retention within the sway part. Aragosta’s dedication to prioritizing performance is evident in their investment of time and resources into enhancing components that may not be visible but greatly impact the overall quality of their coilovers.

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.

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.

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 [email protected] with any inquiries.
