These are the RSR coilover for the TLX

HottnesTLX

When can I order these?

mondster

How much?

h_dawg

Based on the prices of their other coilovers, they are probably in the $1800-$2000 range

h_dawg

I think Mike said they will be available in a couple months

HottnesTLX

Thanks

mondster

Damn... looks like im going springs

HipHapa

I can't wait for these coilovers to come out!

SolidLiquidFox

Same here...

SinCityTLX

Pretty damn good looking coilers. I hope they ride smooth and plush, but also have great dampening ability. The KW suspension version for Japanese Cars looks to be RSR

SinCityTLX

When are you bolting them biatches on to do an in depth review?

Stew4HD

The install will be the same as the springs install leaving out the part where the spring compressor is needed. The DIY created for the spring install will work.

Chan_Mike

Not yet. Should be available in the next month or so

Chan_Mike

Here's what it will look like with the RSR Sports-I coilover. Vehicle drove amazing with this new setup.

SinCityTLX

Yes that is is true. Sorry for the confusion when "slang" typing. I was wanting to know when we could expect to see a road test review. Those look like some quality coilers.

Stew4HD

Mike, how would you compare the ride between the coilovers and the springs? I do notice a stiffer ride with the springs. I am guessing this is to be expected with the shorter travel of the shocks/springs?

advan031

Can we customize the spring rates and valving?

Chan_Mike

You are absolutely right, the travel is much shorter. We did not mess with the RSR pre-set spring rate and only adjusting the dampening function (36-way). It definitely gives a different driving character than the RSR Down springs. A lot more responsive on turns and curvy road.

Chan_Mike

Yes sir. Custom orders does take more time to arrive here. Remember, all RSR coilovers are hand build in Japan.

Stew4HD

Would you, by chance, know if a camber kit is in the works of the TL? I am getting tired of seeing that negative camber and getting questions from strangers about my "bent" wheels.

There is a rear camber kit by SPC in the works that should be ready soon. Of course soon by some company standards could mean weeks or months, lol.

I haven't talked to Mike recently about it, so maybe there's some newer developments, but thats the last i heard about it

Stew4HD

Thanks for the update. We'll just have to wait.

enchantedsky

The strangers are right, your wheels probably are bent!

SolidLiquidFox

Mike,

What's the drop with the coilovers compared to the 1" or so with the down springs?

So far I am reading that coilovers provide better handling. Any other differences in the feel of the drive?

I will be purchasing an Acura tlx sh-awc tech v6, is there a part number for coilovers for this vehicle, or which brand coilovers fit this vehicle, so far I saw d2 on ebay but that is it, nothing on the rsr website nor tein thanks

Stew4HD

One of our vendors, Mr. Heeltoe is a great source and where I got mine:

^sorry but I asked for coilovers for an v6 sh awc tech, not springs, but thanks anyway

Stew4HD

Coilovers are available too but will cost a heck of a lot more. Did you check HeelToe's website?

zar

I did but could not find anything also rsr web site has nothing, so don,t know where to go next

Stew4HD

Did you see post #102 in this thread?

ExcelerateRep

We have great pricing on these coilovers as well! If anyone is interested feel free to send me a PM.

Chan_Mike

This is the alignment reading after the coilover installed. As for the price, you just got to look up ^^^^

I love these lowering options. Great work, it's a lot to put in the R&D on a product for a vehicle that isn't geared toward enthusiasts! I kinda wish I had a TLX to start my projects all over again!

Mr.Koi

I lowered mine with springs. They used NSX springs. The ride is a lot stiffer but the handling is tighter and more responsive.

Speed_Racer

"They" being the dealer? Can I ask how much the NSX springs were? Looks great. That's how low it should have come from the factory.

Mr.Koi

Yes, it was the dealer.
Lowering Kit = $480
Camber Kit = $295
Labor = $800
Computerized four wheel alignment = $450

Terdbath

That is quite a bit $$ for springs but......

Car looks good lowered.

Cool AF to be able to say you are on NSX springs.

About 2 inches. It eliminates the gap above the wheel.
