Please ensure this listing is read in full to understand the installation requirements of this coilover kit to a 197 or 200 road car.
This Pure Motorsport/Bilstein coilover kit is a very similar design to the Cup racer suspension, but with two way independent bump and rebound adjustment. This particular kit has been developed in conjunction with Bilstein UK.
The front coilover is a monotube, upside down design with strong steel casing and features a parallel spring with custom top spring platform with two way damping adjuster at the base of the casing. The front damper must be used with the Pure Motorsport X85 top mounts or can be fitted directly to an X85 Cup racer. (Details below highlighted in Red)
The rear coilover unit is an all aluminium body with a large range of ride height adjustment. The rear coilover features spherical bearing bottom and top mounts and are supplied with a top mount clevis that bolts into the body.
The lower mounting uses a spherical bearing with spacers to give more spring to body clearance as it's very tight on Clio 3RS models. With these coilovers you will need to modify the body slightly to give clearance for the larger diameter springs.
On front and rear dampers the two way adjusters offer a 10 click adjustment with clear feedback to provide accurate, repeatable adjustment.
Designed primarily as a suspension kit for use on circuit this is equally at home in a hillclimb/sprint car with the specification of appropriate rate springs.
We recommend spring rates around the following figures but driver preference will make a difference and please feel free to contact us with what you would like:
Circuit 60N/mm front, 600lb/in rear
Circuit harder setup 70N/mm front, 650lb/in rear.
PLEASE NOTE *This coilover kit is used with the Pure Motorsport Clio 3RS 197 | 200 | X85 Cup Racer top mount set up only, it cannot be used with OEM road strut tops and OEM top mounts.*
You will need the Pure Motorsport X85 Cup racer top mounts and weld rings as well if your vehicle doesn't already have these fitted / still has the OEM Renault road strut tops. The top mounts and weld rings are direct replacements for the Renaultsport versions, to be welded into the strut tops to allow fitment of the Pure Motorsport X85 top mounts or Renaultsport X85 top mounts for this coilover kit to be installed.
This top mount set up is listed separately in the alignment & tracking section of our website.
