V8R DSD coilovers
 
I have a full set of DSD coilovers from V8R for sale. These were on the car when I bought it (you can actually see them in the SupaDupaSteve build thread) but I went to Fox units so these are surplus. PO bought them used so no idea of mileage but I drove on them for a few thousand miles and they work fine. Sell for $1K new. Asking $300 plus actual shipping.

Also a pair of brand new Dynalite 120-6806 1.38" 4-piston calipers as used in many Miata BB conversion kits for the front brakes. Gray anodized finish. No pads. I decided to upgrade to the Dynapro calipers. $161 each from Wilwood, about $115 each on Amazon. Asking $160 for the pair including shipping.

A few pics. I forgot about the white instrument cluster. Indicates ~52Kmiles as I recall. Open to offers - I paid about $100 for a comparable nearly perfect black cluster

The brakes are actually 120-13839.

Are these coilovers capable of stock ride height or do they have a minimum drop built in?

V8R says: "Our DSD suspension is a result of over three years of track and street testing to provide a complete Coilover system that would allow a tight yet cushioned ride but would be able to handle a weekend in the canyons or on track. Its full-length adjustment system keeps ride height and preload adjustments separate by having easily adjustable length shock bodies. This feature allows you to make quick setup changes with the included forged spanner and also allows corner weighting without affecting spring preload. Damping curves are easily adjusted through the top of the shock. We use 8/5 settings for the street and start at 15/12 for the track".

Our testing was done using BP and V8 conversion cars. Spanning over 40k miles and dozens of track days through the course of testing. For larger wheel and tire combos and more dedicated track uses we recommend 12K front and 7K rear spring rates. For touring street use and occasional track 8k front/5K rear.

Fully threaded aluminum-bodied
Mono-tube design
30 way adjustable valving, rebound, and compression together
Independent pre-load and ride height adjustments
10K(560lbs) front 7K(392lbs) rear spring rates standard.
SAE9254 high strength cold wound then heat-treated steel springs
Aluminum upper mounts, rubber isolated to help aid NHV
NOK oil seals, 20w race series oil
Bump stops and dust boots included
Hard anodized for corrosion resistance

I'm sure they can be adjusted to give a 12.5" ish ride height but the separate ride height adjustment should allow full stock height without changing preload. That said, the ride height adjustment doesn't change shock travel.
