Default Revalved 350z Ohlins DFV coilovers

FS Revalved 350z Ohlins DFV coilovers. I purchased these from NEW myself and ran for exactly 14months, basically a season and a half of track only use on a dedicated car (for sure less than 3k miles, yes that few). Rear dampers are inverted style (less unsprung mass) with the adjuster on the BOTTOM, so you can adjust while on the ground no problem. Very very low miles as you would expect, and no incidents to report, I am a clean driver. I am selling because I just bought a set of scales and the lady is mad, otherwise I would keep around as spares. Condition is 9/10 with only surface wear and tear can be seen from being removed and installed a few times. No component damage, and top mount sphericals are still tight since they have been run so little. They were revalved by PSI in California to my specifications (shocks are stickered with their contact info). I didnt post a picture but I will include the Ohlins coilover wrenches (2) that came with the kit, in addition to the shock dynos and left and right side comparative dynos illustrating their consistency to each other. You need to re-use your OEM hardware to mount the shocks (no lower mount bolts or top mount nuts, I dont think they come with the kit either iirc).

They have an amazing range of adjustability, I ran them in the 20k-14k front range, and rear from 8k all the way up to 16k (yes 16k, OEM spring bucket obv), and my current settings are very much in the middle range of the dampers in the mid range of those spring rates. They can be run on the street with the original Ohlins springs (as pictured, 4 springs and the adapter perches for the rear) at a lower damping setting, or up to well over 1000lb fronts. Now that I have comparative data it is amazing to me the range of force these dampers can cover. From the looks of it you could for sure run these the way they are valved for a 1300lb front spring if you wanted. Most motorsports specific dampers are dialed in to a much more narrow range of adjustability than these are. I think this setup will impress even someone coming off of a pretty competent setup. And the irony is that I do not think even my current setup (Koni 28 series) is dialed in as well as these are...no joke. But I am committed and need to offset tire costs.

I will happily exchange phone #s and offer you all the support I can for these things, as I have done quite a bit of development time on them in a competitive setting. From tire, track and condition specific setting ranges (which actually do make a significant difference on these coilovers) I am here to help. I have run several adjustable setups for this platform I hope this can provide some added value to the buyer in the form of saved revalve, associated shipping costs, and R&D time. You never know, maybe Ill even buy them back from you one day...ah I can dream cant I.

My price is 1925 shipped Venmo or similar, $1925+fees for whatever other service. Full disclosure I am aiming for around $1800 net from this setup, so if anyone can find a way to get these to you cheaper Ill happily do $1800 and you send me the shipping labels or pick them up, whatever is clever. But shipping is pretty expensive. Thanks.
