CA Aragosta coilover best FD street coilover?

Hey everyone,

I currently have Koni with a custom height adjustment kit. I want to go a bit lower without altering the springs compression or suspension travel which would make the ride even worse on the Konis.

I think I've searched through literally every thread that has aragosta coilovers mentioned. I've only seen about two reviews from owners in all those threads who stated that the coils were pretty great on the street. I believe these have height adjustment without messing with travel or compression.

Does anyone else have these and can comment about street driving? That's all my FD will be doing.

Read on the forums that one of the service centers in the US for ohlins or another coilovers manufacturer will service/rebuild these no problem. I actually ended up picking up a pair so we shall see how everything goes in a few weeks

Our suspension shop in SoCal can rebuild Aragosta, not an issue at all.

Love my Aragostas. Actually just shipped them back to Japan for overhaul and custom valving. Price is 15000 JPY per corner with the valving change iirc.
