Whether it be the more street and track day oriented DMS Gold 40mm, the  rally inspired DMS 50mm, or the range topping DMS 5 way adjustable suspension there is an option to suit your Subaru whatever you use it for.  Add to this a range of CNC machined strut tops and a wide variety of spare parts and servicing kits and you will get many years of use out of your DMS suspension.

S Technic’s very own David Smith was recently given a guided tour of the Drummond Motor Sports facilities in Wodonga, Victoria by none other than Jamie himself.  Aside from being very impressed with the array of equipment used to manufacture the shock absorbers, strut tops and housings (5 axis CNC machine or robotic TIG welder anyone?) what really stood out to David was the high level of quality control and systems in place.  “Jamie has a comprehensive manual for each component, covering every step of the manufacturing and assembly process all the way through to packaging and shipping.  Quality control is clearly something that Jamie and his team live and breathe by, it’s not just a fancy poster on the wall.” says David.

Recently DMS was chosen by the V8 Utes series to be their control suspension supplier, which would explain the Holden and Ford utes up on stands in the workshop during his visit.  David also said “The other thing that was impressive was the range of testing and data logging equipment that Jamie and his team utilise to fine tune their suspension and setups.  When they combine that raw data with input from the drivers and use it to continually improve their product it is no wonder that the feedback from customers is that their DMS just works…straight out of the box.”

When investigating coil over options for your vehicle we suggest you do yourself a favour and consider the following when comparing other alternatives to a quality Australian made DMS product:

•  Australian designed and manufactured?
• Comprehensive local support?
• Spare parts availability? (with DMS every component is available, from a housing right down to the protective red cap covering the bump/rebound adjuster)
• Street, Race & Rally proven?

An S Technic Pitch Stopper (aka Pitching Stopper or Pitching Control Rod) assists in reducing the fore/aft movement of the engine and gearbox when accelerating or decelerating, and, if you are gullible enough to believe everything you read on the interweb, they are purported to do everything from turn ‘water into wine’ to making you ‘irresistible to the opposite sex’ (or same sex if that is your cup of tea).

In all seriousness, reducing engine and gearbox movement is crucial to minimising the chance of a missed gear or your car jumping out of gear on hard take off.  Both are problems the WRX is susceptible to.

All this for the INTRODUCTORY price of only $175 fitted ($145 supply only) while stocks last.  Call 08 9493 5559 NOW to order yours.

Since the early days of his apprenticeship at RMS Andrew has had a passion for Subaru.  Don’t be fooled by his age as over the years Andrew has gained a detailed understanding of the intricacies of Subaru’s in general but especially the performance models.

Andrew’s second passion is the AE86 Toyota Sprinter rally car that he spent his spare time building up from a bare shell as an apprentice.  Unfortunately as anyone familiar with Rallying knows it is a sport filled with mixed emotions…typically Love & Hate…but we have no doubt that the Sprinter will be back fanging through the bush again soon.

Welcome aboard Andy we hope you enjoy the S Technic ride.

Doug stated “The S Technic Subaru WRX RA performed faultlessly.  A quick look at how many cars dropped out and you can see see how mechanically tough this rally was, yet we had no dramas at all.  In fact we didn’t even need to change tyres finishing on the same set we started with.”

Team Manager, Damien Rykers, echoed Doug saying “Doug drove a faultless rally and everyone’s efforts in preparing the car for this weekend, along with Doug’s skill at the wheel, meant that for once our service crew spent a Rally relaxing around the BBQ.”
