Adjustable suspension info

I'm looking for a set of adjustables for my 1980 RX7 Series 1. Does anyone know who manufactures them or where I can source a set? I understand D2 don't make them for the FB. I'm based in Auckland, New Zealand.

Sorry your website does not help me with what I am looking for. There must be a reputable company that manufactures adjustable suspension for the sa22c. Any suggestions?

The ReSpeed coilovers + Illumina shocks = adjustable shocks and adjustable ride height.

The only thing this does not accomplish is 2 way adjustable shocks, is that what you are looking for?

What adjustments are you looking for?

RE-Speed is pretty reputable, BTW, I've got their coilovers front, adjustable perches rear, sway bar and rack & pinion kit. It all works quite nicely, and there's a LOT of adjustment.

If your thinking along the lines of something youd find bolted to an fd your completely SOL. The only place you could have gotten them the owner has retired. Stuff like that is just not available for an old and relatively obscure car like the SA/FB. Either grab something and make it work or get the RE-Speed conversion kits. You can use AE86 rear coilovers from techno toy tuning instead of the stock seperate springs and dampers.

bumping from the dead.....

Does AE86 front and rear suspension fit on the SA22c plug-and-play? I'm reading up top that AE86 suspension rears will fit (perch/coil separate from shock). i'm wondering if I can buy the ae86 kit and make it work
