    Help with Ohlins coilovers

    I have had my 14a about a month now and decided to try and find out what make the coilovers on it are, uncovered a ohlins sticker under the black paint they seem to be coated in.

    My question is, do these exist? Does anybody have any info on them? I cant find anything on the internet on these re specs or new price.



    Thanks

    Uk ones ghost?

    I spoke to ohlins at the nec show and they couldn't say if they would be able to fix any issues with my coilovers as made under license.
    They did however say they'd give it a go if I ever had issues.

    Do you know if they have any UK service centers that will look at car parts?
    They all seem to only do bike stuff.

    So, how do I go about adjusting the damping on the rear? One side has a little knob thing that just turns freely while the other just has a couple of nuts and nothing turns.

    Get some pics. One of my adjusters g has come off.

    As said spoke to ohlins at nec and they couldn't tell me if they could offer any service for repairs but would have a look and could possibly help

    The first one just spins and can be lifted up (but goes straight back down when let go of) the other side is completely tight and nothing moves by hand.

    Not a great deal, they're just like any other JDM suspension part you come across.

    They are really nice, but you cannot really get the rebuilt (without spending a ton of money).
    So if you buy an old second hand set you can't expect them to last very long.

    I've got a set on my MX5, they were awesome but now one's leaked they're all off into the bin.
