NSX Prime, we are SakeBomb Garage. We’ve developed race winning Ohlins kits for the S2000 and RX7 over the years and wanted to bring that winning formula to the NSX community. We understand the value of the chassis and modification should fall into the OEM+ category. Ohlins dedication to quality and racing is what drove us to maximize the possibilities with FPSpec.

We are proud to introduce our SakeBomb Garage FPSpëc Long-Stroke Öhlins DFV. The ultimate solution in customized suspension, specifically aimed at the NSX enthusiast.

Since its introduction, the Öhlins DFV line has revolutionized coilovers, and as a result, no longer are customers forced to choose between performance and ride quality. The Öhlins DFV valving design made it possible to have a truly track worthy damper that was also not only livable, but comfortable on the street due to the patented Öhlins DFV technology. Sakebomb Garage is proud to provide this cutting edge, modern suspension technology, for your NSX.
Product Features Include:


  • [*=1]Custom Long-Stroke Öhlins DFV Damper Bodies Exclusive to SBG
    [*=1]Available in Two Tailored Stiffness Options Tuned to Meet Your Needs
    [*=1]Swift® Main Springs in SBG Exclusive Ohlins Gold
    [*=1]Swift® Helper Springs in SBG Exclusive Ohlins Gold
    [*=1]Aurora Bearing Teflon Lined Lower Rod Ends
    [*=1]Fully Floating Billet Aluminum Top Hats with Teflon Lined Aurora Bearings
    [*=1]Bullet Nose Studs For Easy Installation
    [*=1]High-Torque Non-Marring Aluminum Adjustment Spanners

Specially Tailored Spring Rate Options, Optional Custom Spring Rates Available
We don’t believe in having you dig through forums to try to figure out what spring rates, ride heights and settings other people think are comfortable or easy to drive. For the NSX, we are offering two specially tailored spring rate combinations to suit the vast majority of customer’s applications. Each kit includes a detailed assembly guide including preload and free-length settings to achieve your specified ride height.
FPSpëc Grand Touring
Perfect for the backroads NSX, the best possible balance of body control and ride quality. Extremely capable for the occasional weekend track day.
8kg/mm Front and 6kg/mm Rear Swift Springs in SBG Exclusive Ohlins Gold
Front and Rear Helper Springs Standard
FPSpëc Race
For the dedicated track NSX, higher spring rates provide the superb body control and stability. Recommended for the frequently track driven NSX.
12kg/mm Front and 9kg/mm Rear Swift Springs in SBG Exclusive Ohlins Gold
Front and Rear Helper Springs Standard

FPSpëc Tailored
For those with radically built cars, we can provide our bespoke suspension consultation service to recommend spring rates, anti-roll bars and valving to meet your specific needs.

Floating Aluminum Tophat with Aurora Bearings and Bullet Nose Studs
Floating aluminum top hats eliminate bending loads on the spring and damper reducing friction on the damper and providing a perfectly parallel spring platform. This reduces hysteresis to ensure consistent, predictable damper performance in all conditions while extending the life of your damper. The only choice of top race teams, Aurora’s stainless steel, teflon lined spherical bearings provide high strength, silent articulation and will never rust.

Same Dual Flow Valve Technology That You Have Came to Love
Derived from Öhlins Racing heritage, the DFV is uniquely able to provide the damping support needed to snake through a slalom at an autocross yet being silky smooth while attacking the apex curbs at the track. The Öhlins DFV has become the defacto road & track damper choice for the S2000 and many other platforms due to its impressive combination of body control during aggressive driving while maintaining ride comfort on rough roads. Sakebomb Garage is proud to finally introduce the NSX market the to Öhlins DFV. The simple fact is: no other damper near this price point has the ability to keep up.

High Torque, Non-Marring Adjustment Spanners
When it comes time to make adjustments, we’ve designed an exclusive non-marring high-torque adjustment spanner to avoid damaging the spring perches. With multiple engagement teeth, it provides positive engagement to avoid slippage and protect your knuckles from the wrath of punching a control arm. A 14mm open end wrench is provided for quick removal of the damper adjustment knob. Also includes a 3/8” breaker-bar attachment for pesky long stuck jam nuts and finally a bottle opener for those long nights in a cold garage.

Assembly and Installation Services Available
For customers in the San Francisco Bay area, we offer suspension installation, alignment and corner balancing out of our Fremont California service center. Please contact us for pricing and scheduling.
For customers not in our area, we can fully assemble your FPSpëc Suspension and provide a ready to install kit, simply bolt in the suspension and make a visit to your local alignment specialist.

I drove Dave's NSX some time ago and setup was very compliant yet responsive. That was on the streets, heard great things about how it performs on the track too. DFV was available to s2000 crew for some time now. Great to have more options.

Dave Lin or Dave Muy? Both stand up guys, both black NSX with our Custom FPSpec Long-Stroke Ohlins DFV's. Dave Muy has the first kit on his car (supercharged). We were all blown away with the level of grip AND compliance/poise. We knew on paper it would be good, but the handling is actually phenomenal. Hopefully others with this kit on their cars will comment as well. This really brings the NSX into the 21st century... brilliant factory suspension design meets world class modern day damper technology.

I bought the Grand Touring vision and love them. The installation was very simple. I'm looking forward to some track time when the weather dries up. Thanks SBG!

Love hearing this! If you get any pics let us know! We like seeing customer cars on the track!
 
Will you be adding more parts to the nsx category? I already have a lot of your parts for my Rx7 that I love!

We do have a few products to launch here, we've worked on a BBK and a rear rotor bump out. We'll be posting up here shortly!

Absolutely. I will be going early next year so I will post photos after then.
I've own them for a year now and they are great streets, no issues. I can't wait to see how it does on the track.
 


Thank you! We've been moving forward with another production run to ramp up for summer track days. We've been overwhelmed with the positive responses to the NSX Ohlins kit and thank everyone who has reached out.

If you're looking to get into the next run, shoot us an email at [email protected]
This way we can sort out your kit tailored to your need and get you a Spring Discount code early!
