Pontiac Solstice & Saturn Sky enthusiasts currently suffer the pain of not being able to find a true engineered adjustable suspension solution for a car that begs to be driven hard. From the first day we had the opportunity to see GM's new Kappa platform suspension, we knew we were looking at one of the best suspension systems to come out of GM in quite some time. We just made it better!!! After nearly six months in development, and another 2 months of road and track testing, Gravana is announcing the release of our new Gravana/B+G Coil-Overs for the Sky. This is the ultimate coil-over system for the Kappa. Hands-Down! Designed for street, yet ready for the track, Gravana/B+G Coil-Overs offer the best of both worlds in terms of ride quality and performance.

Finally, a complete engineered coil-over suspension solution is available exclusively from Gravana! Introducing, the Gravana/B+G Coilover System!



  • Double Ride Height Adjustability
  • 32-Level Damping Adjustability
  • High Quality European Design
  • Anodized Steel Bodies and Lower Brackets
  • 6061 T6 Aluminum Components
  • Progressive Rate Springs
  • Lifetime Warranty! (Yes, Lifetime!)

Most coil-overs force you to lower the spring perch to adjust height, which reduces the shock travel and performance. Gravana/B+G Coil-Overs allow you to lower the car without reducing the shock performance. How? Each shock body is fully-threaded for precise ride height and weight transfer, and inserts into threaded steel lower brackets. Thus, the stroke of the shock rod does not change. Additionally, the Gravana/B+G coil-over has billet adjustable spring perches which can be lowered, giving the Gravana/B+G Coil-Overs Double Ride Height Adjustability. This separate height adjustability via spring perches allows you to fine-tune your stance and ride or even slam the car for shows. For those who have been torn trying to figure out which suspension is best, Gravana has the Answer! The shock bodies, perches and brackets are all anodized steel for maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Component pieces are made from 6061 T6 aluminum alloy for a combination of strength and light weight.



Quite often, companies try passing off coil-over conversion kits (a threaded sleeve and collar with springs) as true coil-overs. Unlike the sleeve kits that serve as more of a bandaid and often click and make noise as you drive, this is a True Coil-Over System engineered on the car. Each shock body houses a Monotube Gas Charged damper for quick response and steering control without loss of performance during high stress use. Unlike twin-tube dampers that experience oil-foaming, the monotube design provides a reliable and consistent level of damping force. Each shock incorporates 32 levels of bump & rebound damping adjustment (16 clicks adjusting both compression & rebound simltaneously on each click), allowing you to dial in the best combination of rebound and compression for any driving environment. In our testing, click settings 1-5 are excellent for most street environments. 6-9 are for the more aggressive drivers, looking for the competitive edge. 10-12 is for the driver who wants track-level performance for that smooth mountain road or even Autocross. Levels 13-16 are for those of us who like to wake up on a Saturday morning, bypass breakfast and coffee, and load our helmets in the car for a day at the track. Most people who drive the test car liked the 7-12 range to achieve the ultimate combination of comfort and performance for daily driving!



The progressive rate coil springs included in the kit are specifically designed to work with the Gravana/B+G Coil-Overs to provide the best combination of performance and ride quality in an effort to provide you with a finely-tuned coil-over suspension system. As a policy set forth by B+G, we do not publish spring rates. However, higher and lower rate springs are available; email us if you need them. Ride height adjustability will range from 0" - 2.0" and can vary slightly from car to car.

The Gravana/B+G Coil-Over System is a direct bolt-in for all Pontiac Solstice, Pontiac Solstice GXP, Saturn Sky and Saturn Sky Redline models.

WHAT'S THE DEAL?
MSRP is $1499.99. Gravana is offering the kit for only $1250.

After being pushed back for 9 months due to other coil-over projects, our first shipment of Solstice & Sky coil-overs is due on 12/26/07. We will be calling all of our pre-order customers first to verify information and start shipping ASAP.

Thank you all for your patience. As some of you know from driving my Solstices and Sky, the reward is in the product itself!

Jim

How are these different from the K&W's? I thought the K&W's were made for our cars too.

Jim, I get no response to my question above?????? I think my question is a good one. These are $500 cheaper than the KW's. How about a comparison.

I would second that request.
I would also like to see a comparison myself.
Also as a reference point to include the GMPP suspension, even though they are not adjustable.

From a features comparison standpoint...

GMPP: non-adjustable, mono-tube dampers, painted steel housings
Gravana/B+G: ride height adjustable, 16 position single adjusting knob (affects low-speed rebound and compression together), mono-tube damper, anodized steel housings
KW: ride height adjustable, infinitely adjustable (no clicks) rebound damping, 14- level adjustable compression damping, mono-tube dampers, inox-line stainless steel housings
