New! STANCE XR Premium Coilover - For the guys that want the best! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

tougefactory · 11-17-2010, 05:12 PM

Hey guys,

STANCE has released a new coilover, XR premium.

So you want to know what's so good about it? Here are the features.

First thing you'll notice is the huge size of the XR. The outer diameter is 60mm. Is bigger better? Yes, when it comes to dampers, size does matter.
Larger piston area produces instantaenous response to the slightest suspension movements. No dead spots with XR.

Larger diameter reduces rod pressure and keeps pressure more consistent to heat changes.
Larger oil capacity allows for fade free performance in the toughest conditions.

XR features completely new piston and orifice design that allows excellent "low speed" feel and "high speed" control. The result is a smooth ride and super stable car.

All STANCE monotube dampers feature inverted monotube technology. Don't be fooled by other monotube dampers that doesn't offer inverted dampers. Non-inverted type monotube dampers on strut type suspension have many performance disadvantages. The lateral load can actually put load on the shaft and prematurely wear out the internals. The lateral load during cornering can bend the shaft and in worse case, break. There is a reason why OEM high end factory cars like Benz,BMW, even WRX and Evos all come with inverted monotube dampers.

XR also comes with Swift springs. Swift springs are much lighter and offer more stroke than any other springs on the market. Tested back to back with other springs, it offers faster response than any other springs.

XR has been tested at the highest level of competition.

MSRP $2395

Available now for S13, S14, FC3S. Future applications Z33, CT9A, AE86.
S13 8k/6k
S14 9k/7k
FC3S 8k/6k

While others are developing lower quality products to keep the prices down, XR was developed for highest performance with no compromises.

On to pictures.

Yeah these pretty much are DG-5s and scrumptious.

Landers · 11-17-2010, 06:45 PM

xBlastoisex · 11-17-2010, 06:59 PM

HAHA Funny, I was thinking the same thing! Well I just bought a set of coilovers but if I was in the market, I'd check these out for sure!

Perfect Balance · 11-17-2010, 07:31 PM

Shock Dyno?

Because as of right now I see a Fortune Auto coilover (Big piston monotubes) with Swift springs (can be purchased for ~$350) and an inverted damper for 2.5x the price.

Not trying to knock Stance, but the damper is what makes a coilover. I know Swift springs are good, but what about the dampers?

+1.

Just looked up the specs on DG-5's and compared them to XR's and they look nearly identical. Assuming the dampers are built to the same spec as the rest of the coil I'd venture to say that these are equal to DG-5... Except less expensive.

stockbee · 11-17-2010, 08:29 PM

And the question has been raised.

clean looking parts though!

PerilousActs · 11-17-2010, 08:54 PM

In for shock dyno results.

Big Zee · 11-17-2010, 08:58 PM

will they let you go lower then the PBM coilovers ?

slider2828 · 11-17-2010, 10:23 PM

*ManoNegra* · 11-17-2010, 11:44 PM

REVGASM · 11-18-2010, 09:35 AM

BUY WITH CONFIDENCE...these things are absolutely incredible!!! Experienced them in S13 and FC3S

***CrimsonRockett*** · 11-18-2010, 10:17 AM

Yeah, these definitely look tempting.

Wouldn't mind owning a set of these to replace my practically new FLT-A2's.

+10000 no dyno, no cool, just another flashy new coilover with questionable dampers. No disrespect.

It's nice and all being inverted up front and having swift springs but uhm.. other than that what else is there to it other than another bunch of coilover pieces put together, camber plates, etc... Plus with price jumping up eh..

Just moving to swift springs makes shit incredible.... doesn't mean the dampening is great either.... shock dyno, but even then with the shock dyno its also a preference as well...

Sorry, no trade program. But if you have a proof of purchase, Stance is offering extra discount for the XR.

Thanks!

It's obvious they're ripping off the DG-5s just by the appearance and them now using SWIFT springs. That doesn't mean the dampening is the same though. :P

Fortune is 50mm and not inverted. XR is definitely not the same.
