The Öhlins Dedicated Track coilovers for the Porsche Boxster (986) cover 1998-2004 models including S variants and are built around one straightforward premise: the setup work is done before the kit ships. Spring rates, clicker settings, and ride height specifications are all shake-rig developed and track validated by Öhlins engineers for the (986) chassis specifically. The driver’s job is to bolt them on and focus on driving, not sorting out the suspension over multiple sessions. This is the Öhlins Dedicated Track coilover system for the Porsche Boxster (986); competitive performance, without the complication.
Developed for the 986, Not Adapted from Something Else
The Öhlins Dedicated Track lineup is competitive, not complicated. This kit is designed specifically for the Porsche (986) and does not use a catch-all damper where half the clicker settings are useless. Each application in the Dedicated program is shake-rig developed and track validated with spring rates manufactured by Swift to Öhlins’ own specifications, along with confirmed clicker settings and ride height targets for the chassis. The result is a system that performs correctly straight out of the box, with enough adjustability left over for the driver to fine-tune to personal preference.
Dual Flow Valve Technology and Damper Construction
The DFV allows engineers to tune force curves for chassis support while maintaining traction over pavement irregularities and on-track curb strikes, managing compression and rebound in a way that keeps the tires working across a wider range of surface conditions. The dampers use a monotube design with inverted strut construction and aluminum shock bodies at all corners. The inverted strut reduces unsprung weight and stiffens the front end against lateral flex under hard cornering loads. Aluminum shock bodies shed heat more effectively than steel during sustained track use, which keeps damper behavior consistent across longer stints.

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.

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.
