MeisterR

A common question many owner ask: How does MeisterR coilovers compare to other brands? As coilovers are only part of a car's suspensions, and there are many other variable involved; it is often a difficult questions to answer. So I want to bring up a very interesting "test" that we will be doing. Here in Houston USA, I meet a driver at a local SCCA Auto Solo event name Lucio D'lsep. Lucio was an Italian racing driver back in the early 2000's, and have decided to get back into competitive motorsport after being absent for over 12 years. Here is a picture of him in the former glory days racing with Osella in Rechberg (Austria) back in 2002. Lucio's current car is a Honda S2000 daily driver that runs in the SCCA Auto Solo STR (Street Touring Roadster) Class. The good thing about the STR class is that the rules limit modification you can do as well as tyres you can use, thus creating a class that daily street driven cars can compete with each other. Suspension Issue Speaking to Lucio, he have been having issue with his car. He is using an off the shelf Bilstein PSS9 adjustable coilovers, and he just couldn't get the suspension to work with the car. The tyres just couldn't find grip and the body motion does not feel controlled no matter how he adjust the coilovers, so he is struggling to keep speed through the corners as well as keeping the car on the racing line. The result is lost traction as well as hitting cones, and this put a time penalty on his result. MeisterR Suspensions Change I thought this will make a great opportunity to test the MeisterR coilovers against Bilstein, and will keep things fair as we can get a qualitative (how the suspensions feel on the road) and a quantitative (Lap time) feedback on the same road car driven by the same driver in the same competitive event. So we got a set of off the shelf MeisterR Zeta-R coilovers, and swap the Bilstein PSS9 coilovers out. Initial Feedback on MeisterR coilovers The initial feedback by Lucio is positive after a few days of street use. Here is what Lucio have to say: Both the Bilstein and the MeisterR look like serious tools and not toys. The MeisterR out of the box are ready for the installation, the light weight aluminium top mount included with the MeisterR is the main difference when compared to the Bilstein that need to reuse the top mount from the original Honda suspension. After 12 years out of racing it’s the first time that I see a suspension with springs coil adjustments independent from ride height adjustments. This is a great improvement and it mean no more compromise when adjusting the ride height. Compare to the Bilstein, the MeisterR damping response and compliancy on the irregularity of the street gives you confidence. You are able to feel the grip and trust the car/tyres, and know that when the grip finish there will be space for correction. The accuracy of the steering is what impressed me the most with the MeisterR coilovers. The front of the car is on track followed by the rear even with the non-linear power curve of the S2000 engine trying to mess up your approach to the apex. It is also more comfortable on softer damping setting. If your potential girlfriend has already experienced sport cars, she will not complain about comfort as softer damping setting is not so far from the original equipment. SCCA Result with Bilstein The last round of the SCCA Auto Solo, Lucio finished in 7th place with 13 competitors total. While the lap time of 51.297 isn't slow, the additional penalties from hitting cones brought his result down to 7th place. The next round of the SCCA Auto Solo will be this Saturday 2nd of August, 2015. We will get the S2000 to the track and hope we finish on the podium, because when you race you race to win. We will report back in a few days time.

Well, it is always nice to see race result. And always good to see happy customers. Just to say I had quite a bit of feedback from owners that had achieve positive racing result such as Auto Solo that I didn't know about. So if you are using MeisterR and are winning, feel free to let us know as we love to hear achievement of our customers. Jerrick

One question that are commonly asked: How does the MeisterR suspension perform on track? As owners do throw the MeisterR coilovers into the fire pit of competition, I just want to share some of their exciting result. Drift: A One - Two Finish Congrats to Michael Marshall and Mark Luney; a well fought battle and great to see MeisterR in both 1st and 2nd place on the podium. 1st Place British Drift Championship (Pro Class - Round 3 - Teesside): Michael Marshall - Team MnM Engineering 2nd Place British Drift Championship (Pro Class - Round 3 - Teesside): Mark Luney - Team Lucas Oil Drag: Setting New Records Now mid way through the 2015 season and David Greenhalgh is setting new records along with winning the competition. Resetting the Japanese Drag Series 1/4 mile 4-wheel drive ET record to 8.369s and the 4-wheel drive trap speed record to 166.07mph in 2015. David’s comment on his custom drag specification MeisterR GT1 coilovers: “Funnily enough, we also have to turn the corner at the top too! Who says no turns in drag racing........... Last year the car was all over the place going up the strip. Check out the videos from Jap Drag Series. This year with Meister R GT1 it's been straight as an arrow, good squat, excellent under braking and so far I've always made the corner at the top!†1st Place Japanese Drag Series (Street Class - Round 1 - Santa Pod): David Greenhalgh - Team RIPS Blue Streak 1st Place Japanese Drag Series (Pro Class - Round 3 - Santa Pod): David Greenhalgh - Team RIPS Blue Streak Race: Top of the Podium Quite a few driver on the podium racing with MeisterR this season. Most drivers are using standard off the shelf MeisterR suspension with minor changes such as springs rate. Some are even racing the same set of suspension for a few season, a testament to the performance and durability of the coilovers. Allister Phillips is using the new MeisterR GT1 coilovers and here is what he have to say: “So far I am very impressed with the suspension. I am already beating my previous years personal best lap times despite carrying 50kg+ in ballast, and I expect to improve my times further. The car feels very planted and inspires a lot of confidence to take more speed into the corners.†1st Place Super Lap Scotland (Class E - Round 2 / Round 3 - Knockhill): Allister Phillips - Team TrackScotland AK 1st Place BRSCC VTEC Challenge (Production Class - Round 8 - Castle Combe): Matt Le - Team Racebread 1st Place 750MC 5Club Racing MX5 Cup (Race 10 - Anglesey): James Rogers 2nd Place 750MC 5Club Racing MX5 Cup (Race 10 - Anglesey): Ben Short Again, congrats to all the drivers for the awesome result, racing isn’t easy and that makes winning all the more satisfying.

My car hadn't been started in about 3 months so the battery was completely flat, however this jump box started the car after a few attempts. It works, however the instructions say that the device can't be used again to jump a car until it has been charged up (not just by power but apparently it disables the circuit), while this shouldn't be an issue you may want to be aware of it because if you stall just down the road it will likely be AA/RAC time. Just reset the circuit board in the car before you drive off and you will be fine. Also charge it whilst you drive too Edwin

Yes, the GT1 are custom build coilovers so they can be made to order. There will be a little of lead time, but you would expect that from any high end hand build coilovers. Jerrick What sort of money do the GT1's go for? The GT1's are £1650. Edwin

Just saw this and I thought I'll chime in. The Zeta-S / Zeta-R is entry level performance. It is a good all rounder given it's price bracket. Works well all around but limited by its design. The GT1 on the other hand is a completely different kettle of fish. I almost dare to say it is the most advance suspension you can get within it's price bracket. The fact that you have engineers from Ohlins / AST coming by at Autosport and nodding their head give me extra confidence. All of the internal of the GT1 were engineered in the UK and CNC locally. We actually have a specialist 3-axis CNC machine in our workshop sole dedicated to making the seals that are used in the GT1. The GT1 were design by Black Art Design (BAD), who is responsible for a list of OEM car suspension and podium winning race car, including the only privateer car that runs in the 9 minute club at the Colorado Pike Peak event. So we are very good at vehicle dynamic and the GT1 encompass all of these experience. The major stand out point of the GT1 is the "lifetime warranty". Because we design and manufacture our own CNC seal, the damper actually will last a lifetime. So if the damper ever leak oil, even if you take it to nurburg on a weekly basis, we will rebuild it free. Not because we want to rebuild them, but the damper was engineered not to fail… we are that confident. No other damper manufacturer will give that guarantee, because no one have gone to our length to provide such an advance product. So if you thought MeisterR were a budget… time have changed. We now have the product and the technical backing to compete against some of the biggest name… such as Ohlins. You can always spend more to get more expensive suspension, but we are confident that the GT1 performance won't be beat. Jerrick

We are just back from displaying at Autosport International with the MeisterR GT1 as it's centre piece. Here is a few photo of our "little" stand. A lot of interests from many owners regarding the GT1 coilovers. Many have heard about the GT1 but it was not until they see the internal parts of the GT1 in person that they are thoroughly impressed. We have a lot of data to present so we will bring out more details regarding the GT1 once we organise them. Jerrick
