The Holeshot coilovers from Patec have come a long way since their debut in 1999. Patec’s latest version, the Series 5 Holeshot coilover, has a new look and increased performance.

Patec lists its features as:

• Sport Race tuned dampers that react to the driver settings: the lower you drop the suspension the stiffer the shocks become.
• 20 – 75 mm of lowering adjustment (10 mm = 0.39 inch).
• Dual stage progression springs for an increased performance ability with quicker reaction to the car’s movement and weight loads.
• 2-stage internal cartridge with oil bath design.
• N2 injected to prevent oil foaming and performance loss.
• Precision CNC’d shock body and laser cut damping internals made with the highest standards of perfection.
• High strength wide thread casing to ensure long life and smooth adjustment for the life of the suspension.
• CNC’d aluminum top caps, thread adjusters and small hardware: Minimal use of plastic parts ensures that the chance of immature failure of pieces is substantially lowered.
• Thick anodized outer body prevents rust and corrosion forever expanding the lifespan of the shock.
• Polyurethane bushings and double thick oversized axle bolt mounting shafts for added stability and strength.
• 5-stage damper rod seal system helps prevent any debris, particles, dust dirt from entering the interior of the shock.
• Damping rods are made with special treated hardened steel.
