JRZ shock change in SPB
I was just told that Bilstein may not make any more PSS9 for the SPB application and that JRZ may make them instead. Anyone else know anything about that and if PCA/POC would go along with it?

I heard rumors at Sebring that another shock is being considered by PCA, but not from JRZ. Some small company out of Atlanta, cannot remember the name.

I’ve heard that JRZ, MCS, and Ohlins are all under consideration. It would be nice to get an alternative / replacement shock that matches the PSS9 performance characteristics and fit so we’re still a spec class.

Interesting news regarding a new potential shock manufacturer for SPB. I've been looking for new or used PSS9's for months and was recently told to check with FVD Brombacher www.fvd.net in Pompano Beach, Fl. I called them this morning and they informed me the PSS9's part # 48-181440 are available directly from Bilstein in Germany, they took my order and stated it would take approximately 15 days to receive. Not cheap at $2995 retail but tired of looking at my stalled SPB project. With my luck they will announce a new shock supplier with superior performance for less $$$. If and when my PSS9's arrive I'lll post on this forum.

Friend of mine in AL told me today that he was going to start stripping a 986 for SPB, he was not please when I told him of the PSS9 problem.

PCA is looking for a new supplier, one that actually sells shocks. :-)
It's important to note that the PSS9s will still be legal, and we are trying to be sure the new shock doesn't make PSS9s completely uncompetitive.
Expect an announcement soon.
